Mostly the opening itself and how often you pass through it. A window you crack open for air suits a fixed or roller screen, a door in daily use wants a sliding or self-closing one, and a very wide glass wall is usually best with a folding pleated screen. We work all of this out with you at the survey, so nothing has to be settled beforehand.

Yes — it is one of the jobs we do most. A sliding screen runs on its own track beside the door, so it glides across when you want it and tucks away when you don’t. For very wide or bi-folding openings, a pleated panel often suits better because it folds back into a slim stack.

Almost always. Oversized sliding doors, tall stairwell windows, arched frames and curved balconies are routine for us because every screen is built to measure. For openings too big for a standard frame, we fit a side-drawing flat screen that spans far wider than an ordinary panel.

It depends on the size of the opening, the type of screen and the mesh, so there is no one figure. A simple window screen sits at the low end, while a powered screen across a wide terrace costs a good deal more. After measuring, we give you a price itemised per opening, with nothing tucked away.

Yes, entirely. We come out, measure every opening, run through the options and leave a written quote — all at no cost and with no obligation to proceed. You only pay if you choose to go ahead.

A bigger opening uses more mesh and a stronger frame, so it costs a little more than a small window. But because we build to measure as standard, an unusual size is never treated as a paid extra; the quote simply reflects the real dimensions of each opening.

We do, and screening several openings together usually brings the price per opening down. It is also the neatest approach, especially for a whole villa, since every screen is matched and fitted in one visit rather than piecemeal over months.

Gently, and not often. A soft brush or a wipe with a damp cloth lifts dust away, and an occasional rinse keeps the mesh clear. Steer clear of hard scrubbing, which can stretch a fine weave. Most screens lift out to make the job easier.

Yes. Each screen is covered, and since we build them in our own workshop, any repair down the line is something we can handle quickly rather than send away. Being a local Dubai outfit, we are easy to reach if you ever need us.

We can re-mesh a screen rather than replace it whole, which keeps the cost sensible. The frame stays, the worn mesh comes out and a fresh panel goes in — often in a tougher weave if the damage points to a busy spot.

Years, with a little care. Stainless lasts longest and hardly notices the sun; good coated polymer weaves also hold up well when kept out of the very harshest UV. The frames are built to outlast the mesh, which is what makes re-meshing so straightforward.
