We've had our screens in place now for a couple of years now and it's made a huge difference to our enjoyment of our house. Our house is very open front to back and we didn't want to lose that open feel with fly screens plus due to the sliding doors, it was difficult to find screens to fit. The team at Fly Free are amazing. Within hours of the screens being fitted, out dog ran right through 2 of them because they are virtually invisible! The team came back and replaced the broken screen. We had a few issues early on with the screens coming out of the track but the team always came back to help and fix issues. Their aftercare service is amazing. We did end up replacing the front door screen with a mesh that has lines running through it because visitors kept walking through the screen - because they are so sheer and invisible! We now have small black stickers on the screens at eye level and we make a point of telling visitors to be careful! If you are looking for fly screens for hard to fit areas that don't interfere with the design of your property, these are the screens for you.

Great company to deal with and excellent product. We are able to have unobtrusive fly screens for our stained glass casement windows and a large sliding door in our Queenslander.

Excellent product and great service. I was really impressed at every step of the process with the fantastic customer service I received, and the professionalism and helpfulness of all the staff I dealt with in the course of my order.
I'm also loving my new screens - they look good and of course do a great job of blocking insects. I'm going to really enjoy the fresh air this summer 🙂

Prompt measure and quote. Price was reasonable. We had 3 bedrooms, a large lounge bifold window and a 4m bifold door in our bedroom to screen. We had been told by other companies that the large 4m opening would be a problem from fly free but the company backed their product, and now so do we!
Manufacturing took 28 days from date of order. Installation was fast and hassle free. We couldn’t be happier. The screens have transformed summer nights in the house. We love having the 4m door open all night. Staff were great and easy to deal with.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer retractable fly screen installation in Brisbane?
If you are located in the Brisbane Metro area Fly Free offer a quote and measure service which includes installation of your screens.
How Much Do Retractable Fly Screens Cost in Brisbane?
Ultimately, the price of your retractable fly screens will depend on a range of factors including the size and amount of screens required. We offer a free in home measure and quote in all suburbs of Brisbane.
How Do Retractable Fly Screens Work?
Our retractable fly screens are housed in discrete aluminium casings which are mounted either to either the top, bottom or side of your door or window frame. The fly screen mesh is on a roller mechanism inside the casing allowing it to be extended and retracted, much like a roller blind.
Can I install the screens myself?
Fly Free Retractable Insect Screens have DIY kits which are easy to follow and any home handy-person can install. All that is needed to install most of the kits are a few simple tools and roughly an hour of your time.
What type of openings can be screens with Fly Free Retractable Insect Screens
- Bi-fold doors and windows (up to 6m in width)
- Casement windows
- Double hung windows
- Hopper windows
- French doors
- Entry doors
- Some models of sliding doors
- Servery windows (such as in convenience stores and school tuck shops)
What is the difference between an architrave mounted and an inner sill mounted screen?
We offer two types of mounted systems:
- Architrave mounted is where the screen framework is attached to the outside architrave or frame of your door or window.
- Inner sill mounted is where the screen framework is attached to the window or door jamb (inside the frame of your door or window).
The two main considerations as to which style would suit your opening best is if there is enough room on your jamb to fit the inner sill system, and aesthetically which one you prefer.
How do i measure correctly?
Architrave mounted: To obtain the correct width measurements, measure from the outside edge of the architrave or frame surrounding your door/window. To obtain the correct height measurements, measure from the top of the architrave of frame to the bottom of the doorway or window frame.
Inner sill mounted: To obtain the correct width measurements, measure from the inside frame of your window or door. To obtain the correct height measurements, measure from the inside of the top of the door/window frame to bottom of the doorway or window sill.
How long does it take to receive the screens once i have placed an order?
Our DIY kits can freighted anywhere in Australia with TNT Freight Company. The standard lead time from when collected from our store is 5 working days. If you are have the screens installed within the Brisbane area it is only a matter of booking an appropriate time for an installer to come to your home or business.
Please note there is however a 2 week lead time for powder coating the frames.
What if I'm trying to match the framework to a particular colour?
This is not a problem at all. We can powder coat the frames to any colour in the Dulux or Interpon powder coating range. We have two primary colours which all our screens are available in, White and Sunburst (a colour we devised to match most cedar stain frames). These two colours are available for no extra charge. We have ten specific Dulux colours in our secondary colour range which are an additional charge and all other colours in the Dulux or Interpon range are priced on application. Contact us if you have any questions in regards to powder coating.
What are the screens made of?
The retractable insect screen frames are made of heavy duty extruded aluminium which is then powder coated to the colour of your choice. The flexible insect mesh is fiberglass and therefore not fire retardant.
What do I do if my screens don't retract smoothly?
If this happens check to make sure the tracks are free from any dirt and debris as this can affect the smooth running of your screen. You can wipe this clean with a damp cloth. Allow to dry completely before using your screens again.
Alternatively double check all the measurements for you opening as the screens require both sides of the opening to be exactly the same so that your screen is level and square. If they are not the same you will have to make adjustments prior to cutting the screen to size, but this can still affect the smooth running of your screen.
What happens if my insect screen is torn or damaged?
Fly Free can dispatch any section of the screen to anywhere in Australia using TNT freight couriers together. If you are located in the Brisbane Metro area one of our installers can come out to your home to access the damage and fix your screen. Please note a call out fee will be charged.
