Pleated flyscreens
Pleated flyscreens fold the mesh together as the screen is opened. They are an option for openings where access and an insect screen need to share the same space. The opening layout should be chosen before the frame colour.
Choose your location and options in the shop. Final measurements and suitability are confirmed at the check measure.

Choosing & fitting
Folding insect mesh for wide openings
Pleated flyscreens gather concertina-style as you open them. They can provide an insect screen without storing a rigid swinging panel beside the opening. Choose the opening arrangement to suit how people move through the doorway and where the mesh can stack.
The supplied Standard brochure describes adjustable cord tension and a magnetic-strip closure. Its tables below apply to that Standard model. Other configurations shown in Klay’s shop have their own dimensions and profiles; do not transfer the Standard limits to every screen.
Track profile and everyday access
Check the bottom track, handles and side frames against the existing door furniture. The Standard brochure specifies a 25 mm-high bottom-track profile, so this model should not be described as trackless or a zero-threshold screen.
A wide opening may need a different meeting arrangement, and a doorway used with mobility equipment needs an assessment of the actual threshold. Explain access requirements before selecting a model; a screen’s maximum size does not establish that the complete installation is accessible.

Choose for your home
Choosing pleated flyscreens for your space
Choose the opening direction and track arrangement before the frame finish. A screen that looks unobtrusive when closed still needs space to gather and a track that suits daily access.

Questions before you order
Frequently asked questions
What should I measure for a pleated flyscreen?
Use approximate opening dimensions for the enquiry and include a photo of the door or window. Final dimensions and the track position should be checked for the selected configuration.
How wide can the Standard pleated flyscreen be?
The supplied Standard brochure lists a single screen up to 4,500 mm wide by 3,000 mm high, and a double screen up to 9,000 mm wide by 3,000 mm high. Final suitability and configuration need confirmation for the opening.
Is the Standard flyscreen trackless?
No. Its brochure shows a bottom track 28 mm wide by 25 mm high. The shop may show other configurations; a lower-profile model needs its own confirmed specification.
Can I use a pleated flyscreen as a security door or child barrier?
No. An insect screen and its magnetic closure are not a security door or a fall-prevention barrier. Do not rely on the mesh to restrain children or pets.
Can a pleated screen fit sliding, bifold or French doors?
It may suit the opening if the chosen configuration has appropriate fixing space, stack clearance and access. Send photos of the doors, handles and threshold so Klay can check the fit rather than choosing only by width.
What frame colours are shown in the Standard brochure?
Black, White, Clear Anodised and Monument are shown, with customised colour mentioned. Confirm the current shop choice and the actual quoted finish; customised colour is not an automatic included option.
What should I do if the pleated mesh is difficult to move?
Check for debris in the track and stop forcing the handle. Cord tension and alignment should be checked by the installer. Avoid experimenting with adjustments without the selected model’s instructions.
Care & support
Keep the track free of grit and debris and move the screen by its handle. Follow the mesh care instructions for cleaning; have cord-tension or alignment changes checked by the installer.
Keep the order details and any supplied care or warranty documents. For a fault, contact Klay with the product, installation details and a description or photo.
Measuring & installation
