What does a made-to-measure fly screen cost?
One of the most common questions from our customers in Waltrop and the Ruhr region: "What does a made-to-measure fly screen cost?" The honest answer: it depends. But we'll explain transparently which factors influence the price.
The most important pricing factors
1. The system: Fixed frames are the most affordable system. Roller insect screens cost a little more because of the mechanism. Hinged frames and sliding screens for doors are the most complex, but particularly robust.
2. The size: The bigger the window or door, the more material is needed. A small bathroom window costs less than a wide patio door.
3. The mesh: Standard fibreglass is the most affordable option. Premium fine mesh (especially unobtrusive) and pollen-filtering mesh come at a surcharge.
4. The profile colour: White is the standard and the cheapest. Special colours such as anthracite or brown can entail a small surcharge.

Why "cheap" often turns out expensive
A fly screen for 15 € from the DIY store sounds tempting. But: - It doesn't fit properly → insects still get in - The material lasts one season → annual replacement - The look is makeshift → not a pretty sight
After several seasons the costs add up and the insect protection often remains unsatisfactory. A made-to-measure fixed frame, with a one-off investment of around 80–150 €, is the more economical choice in the long run.
