Fly Screen Dubai: Custom Mosquito Nets for Windows & Doors
Dubai's cooler months are perfect for opening the windows. But the moment you do, mosquitoes, flies and fine desert dust come straight in. A fly screen in Dubai fixes that problem without forcing you to keep everything shut and the AC running all day.
About Fly Screen Dubai
At Zealcon Group, we design, make and install custom fly screens for windows, doors, balconies and villas across Dubai and the UAE. On this page you'll learn which fly screen type suits your home, which mesh to choose, what affects the price and how our installation works. Ready to talk now? Call or WhatsApp +971 58 186 8400.
Why Every Dubai Home Needs a Fly Screen
Many Dubai communities are built around lakes, canals, golf courses, parks and landscaped gardens. That greenery and standing water attract mosquitoes and flies, especially in the evening.
A quality fly screen in Dubai helps you:
Keep mosquitoes and flies out
while windows and doors stay open
Reduce dust and sand
entering your living spaces
Enjoy natural ventilation
from October to April instead of relying fully on air conditioning
Protect food areas
in kitchens, cafés and restaurants
Sleep better
without buzzing insects or chemical sprays
Add a cleaner look
than temporary stick-on or Velcro nets
Mosquitoes are more than an annoyance. They can carry diseases, and the World Health Organization lists physical barriers like window screens among simple ways to reduce bites at home.
Safety note: Fly screens keep insects out, but they are not designed to stop a child or pet from falling. For high-rise windows and balconies, always pair them with proper locks, restrictors or glass railings.
Our Work
Types of Fly Screens We Install in Dubai
There is no single "best" fly screen. The right choice depends on your opening size, how often you use it and how much space you have. Here are the five types we install most.
Pleated Fly Screen
A pleated fly screen uses a folded, accordion-style mesh that slides open and closed on a slim track. When open, the mesh folds neatly to one side and almost disappears.
- Ideal for large sliding doors, bi-folding doors and balcony openings
- Very low threshold, so it is easy to walk over and wheelchair-friendly
- Can be fitted as a single unit or as a double (meeting in the middle)
- No spring tension, so it stays exactly where you leave it
Example: A villa in Arabian Ranches with a 4-metre bi-folding door to the garden is a perfect match for a double pleated fly screen.
Retractable Fly Screen (UAE Homes & Villas)
A retractable fly screen rolls up into a compact cassette when you're not using it. Pull it across when you need it and let it glide back when you don't. That's why the retractable fly screen UAE homeowners choose most often is for windows they open daily.
- Hidden when not in use, so views stay clear
- Works on windows and doors, vertically or horizontally
- Mesh is protected inside the cassette, which extends its life
- Great for rental apartments where a slim, tidy look matters
Sliding Mosquito Net
A sliding mosquito net sits in its own frame and slides along a track, just like your aluminium sliding window or door.
- The most practical option for standard sliding windows in Dubai apartments
- Strong aluminium frame, easy to lift out for cleaning
- Cost-effective for buildings with many identical windows
- Colour-matched to your existing window frames
Fixed Frame Fly Screen
A fixed screen is a framed mesh panel mounted permanently on the window. It's the simplest and most budget-friendly choice.
- Best for windows you open for ventilation but never need to reach through
- Popular for kitchens, bathrooms, storerooms and warehouses
- Can be clipped or screwed in, with removable options for cleaning
Hinged Fly Screen Door
A hinged screen door opens and closes like a normal door, with an optional self-closing hinge.
- Ideal for kitchen back doors, villa service entrances and restaurants
- Heavy-duty frame for high foot traffic
- Can include a pet-resistant lower panel

Fly Screen Mesh Options
The mesh matters as much as the frame. We offer several types so your fly screen in Dubai fits your lifestyle.
Standard fibreglass mesh
– Light, durable and affordable. The right choice for most homes.
Pet-resistant mesh
– Thicker and tear-resistant, built to handle cats' and dogs' claws.
Fine / dust mesh
– Tighter weave that blocks very small insects and reduces dust and pollen.
Stainless steel or aluminium mesh
– Extra strength for commercial kitchens, warehouses and high-traffic areas.
Clear-view mesh
– Thinner strands for better visibility and airflow, ideal for windows with a view.

Fly Screen Dubai FAQs
What is the best fly screen for sliding doors in Dubai?
A pleated fly screen is usually the best choice for large sliding and bi-folding doors. It has a low threshold, folds neatly to the side and stays in any position. For smaller doors, a retractable screen also works well.
Can I install a fly screen in a rented apartment?
Yes. Retractable and sliding mosquito nets can be fitted with minimal drilling, and fixed screens can use clip-in fittings. Always check with your landlord before installation.
What is the difference between a pleated and a retractable fly screen?
A pleated fly screen folds like an accordion and has no spring tension. A retractable fly screen rolls up into a cassette. Pleated suits wide doors; retractable suits windows and doors where you want the screen hidden.
Are fly screens pet-friendly?
Yes, when you choose pet-resistant mesh. It is thicker and stronger than standard mesh and resists scratches and tears from cats and dogs.
Do fly screens block airflow or light?
Only slightly. Modern fibreglass and clear-view meshes let plenty of air and light through while keeping insects out.
How long does fly screen installation take?
Most homes are completed in a single visit after the screens are made. Production time depends on the number and type of screens.
Do you install fly screens outside Dubai?
Yes. Zealcon Group installs fly screens across the UAE, including Sharjah, Ajman and Abu Dhabi.
