What to choose: a pleated net or a regular mosquito net?

Such a question usually arises before those who have not yet tried to put a pleated net on the windows. There are 4 important advantages of these mosquito nets compared to the usual frames of nets for windows and double panels for doors, and they will surely help you make the right choice:

1. Ease of use.

    Conventional window and door nets can be installed only on the outside of windows and doors. At the same time, their main inconvenience is that if you need to free the opening (pass something through the window or go out the door), you have to make an effort to remove the frame mesh from the fasteners, and then put it back. In addition, visually it does not look very aesthetically pleasing, because the crossbar that divides the window in half constantly catches the eye. For the winter period, the net must be removed, and for this, a place for storage, which is not enough anyway, must be found.

    It also takes up space when opening, so it is important to take into account that there should be free space in front of the door, which is also not in its favor.

    The pleated mesh can be installed both outside and on the side of the room. It is convenient because there are no crossbars that fall into the eyes. At any moment, you can release the light opening of the window or door by easily moving the handle to the side. Pleated is more comfortable to use and aesthetically pleasing.

2. Simple care.

    A mosquito net is an item that is used regularly, and of course it gets dirty. Standard fiberglass mesh is used in conventional designs. It quickly gets clogged with moisture, dirt and insects, which ultimately leads to a deterioration in its functionality and quality: it lets less air through, quickly bursts and crumbles. Especially often, the mesh bursts if the manufacturer has installed a canvas that has been lying for more than 6 months.

    In order for the frame mesh to last longer, it must be removed for the winter period and periodically washed. It is more difficult with a door net, it is stationary and larger, so the service life of such a canvas is guaranteed to be shorter.

    Polyester fabric is used in pleated nets. As a result, good air permeability is maintained, and dried dirt does not fly into the room.

    Pleated nets have a self-cleaning effect when folding and opening the canvas.

    If a deeper cleaning is necessary, it is possible to use a regular vacuum cleaner with a pile nozzle. Remember not to use oils, acids or abrasives, otherwise the coating will be damaged.

3. Durability.

    There are 3 main points that will tell you why standard window frame and door double-pane designs are worse than pleats:

       - They mainly use lightweight parts, which greatly shorten the service life of the structures.

       - The standard window structure of the grid is assembled from a lightweight profile and plastic parts from secondary raw materials. Such plastic quickly turns yellow, and parts (corners, fasteners, handles) are destroyed.

       - Low-quality hinges are used in the door nets, which serve only 2-3 seasons. Due to the thin-walled profile, the door grid can be skewed.

    A polyester fabric is installed in the high-quality design of the pleated mesh.

    The pleated net perfectly copes with sudden temperature changes, and is also resistant to atmospheric precipitation.

    The design of the mosquito net-pleat does not contain parts made of ferrous metal prone to corrosion.

    All plastic elements are made of primary plastic with protection against ultraviolet radiation.

    Powder coating of the mesh profile provides an option for external application, i.e. later there will be no "burning" of the color.

    The design does not include parts with rapid wear. The use of rollers and bearings reduces the effect of friction and therefore the service life of pleated nets increases significantly.

4. Versatility.

    Possibility of closing various openings: windows, doors, balconies, terraces, attics, gazebos. The maximum size of one product is 3*3 meters.

    Pleated mesh is a modern development that does not require storage space.

       Let's summarize.

    A mosquito net draped over a window or door perfectly protects the house from the entry of various garbage and insects from the street. Pleated designs are not only high functionality, but also a good choice from the point of view of the interior. They are attractive in appearance and come in a variety of colors.
