Fly screens

Pet flaps in fly screen doors

Some hinged fly screen door systems can accommodate a separate pet flap. This lets your pet pass through without opening the entire door. The accessory must be compatible with the specific construction.

01 / Fly screens

Out onto the patio, at their own pace.

If your pet often asks to go out and come back in, a separate opening can make everyday life easier. Start by considering whether your pet should have independent access to the outdoor space.

Discuss your pet's size, habits and usual route. The flap's appearance alone is not enough to judge its suitability.

02 / Fly screens

Not every door is the same.

A pet flap cannot automatically be added to any roller, pleated or hinged fly screen. The frame construction and accessory dimensions need checking, ideally before ordering the door.

Key points: check pet flap compatibility with the specific system, not just the mesh.

03 / Fly screens

Consider the whole solution.

If your pet touches the screen, ask about more resistant mesh too. Also consider how people will use the door and whether it will be easy to open.

During the consultation, the fixing position and opening dimensions can be checked. Accessories should complement a convenient door rather than make it harder to use.
