Vermatik Silver 89x210cm Aluminium Chain Fly Screens for Doors. Metal Door Fly Screen Curtain for Indoor and Outdoor Use for Keeping Out Flies, Insects, Wasps

Good

I cannot recommend this chain screen highly enough. Living surrounded by farm land etc we were plagued by flies, wasps etc and a real nuisance. This has completely stopped it. It looks so good, easy to walk through which is great for my dog. I had read the excellent reviews before purchasing as it is not cheap but in my opinion it is worth every penny. Love it!!

I have wanted one of these since last year but just wasn't convinced it would be up to the job, and I feared wasting my money, as it's not cheap.However, I since looked again, read all the reviews and bit the bullet. I am so glad I did. It arrived super fast and my dad fitted it today. It took him 10 minutes. He had to cut off 19cm, as our door measures 80cm, but the length was perfect - bang on. It was fitted to a UPVC frame - I was unsure if it would work (some UPVC being hollow) but it did, and we had no problems. Drilled 2 pilot holes and screwed in - sorted!Every summer as soon as the door is open, within literally 5 seconds the flies come in...drives me mad. Well this has been up all day and the door open and not one single fly has been seen or heard, amazing. I am thrilled to bits. This is worth every penny to keep those nasty flies and other bugs out. It is so nice to be able to have the door open all day without that problem. We have 3 cats - one was going in and out straight away, totally not phased. The other two (siblings and of the same strange nature) have had to be coaxed out, they are still getting used to it and not liking it. But in time I am sure they will be fine.This is a quality made item and it looks very stylish, it adds a really smart touch to the kitchen. I like how you can still see through it, a bonus, as I like to see the garden.Buy it, you won't be disappointed!UPDATE - 1 month on (door open all day until around 10pm at night) and not a single fly - this door chain is amazing! In the current heat-wave we are experiencing this has been a saviour!!

I ordered 3 fly screens of this design, a Vermatec Genuine at £74.99, a Shoze Door fly screen at £40.99 and this one " Fly Blind Screen Chain Curtains for Door" at £65.99The £65.99 one was made of much lighter weight chain than the other two. I weighed the other two and there was no difference in weight and they are all the same design so the Shoze is by far the best value. Have kept two and returned £65.99 one.Comments on blinds getting tangled, I think are from people somehow expecting too much. Ours occasionaly don't fall free but a gentle shake is all it takes to sort them up. If people are finding them getting seriously knotted I just don't know what they must be doing. We have a three year old who, for 6 months, has been crashing through and finding them great fun to play around with. We have had no problems and she must be as good a test as any.On the big question - Do they work?Sorry folks, we put ours up just as summer cooled down and while we didn't have many flies get into the kitchen there were a lot less about. Going on the fact commercial premises use them I reckon they must have some effect.

I love this. It was put up on the outside of the back door with the screws provided, directly into the wall above the double glazed door. Then it slips on and off for summer and winter. It's aluminium so could stay up I guess but I will take it down once the sun has completely finished. I like to hear the little jangle as I move it. But it definitely keeps the flies out. I only had 1 fly come into the kitchen all summer, usually loads because I like my door open all day. You can remove some of the chains if your door is short/long, wide/narrow, very easily. Excellent value for money. Couple of negatives; the edge of the bar is sharp so care when handling. Also in accessories it would help if there was a hook for the side (like curtain tiebacks) so you can tie it to the side for ease in and out if you are carrying something.

I don't write reviews very often but I m so happy with this it's fantasticWe live in rural South of France and it's hot in summer not got air conditioning so need to open doors windows to blow throughThe flies were unbearable we tried all kinds of things fly papers electric fly zapper etc none of which worked whilst they killed the flys more came in to replace themThis item seemed a bit pricey and some not so positive reviews alongside the good ones but I decided I needed to do somethingIt arrived promptly and everything in order my husband has recently had an accident and can't do much so I put it up the screws are a bit long so we had some shorter ones in the shed which were fine 10 mins and it was done !I am still after 3 week's amazed at how it works I have no flies at all except the odd one that sneaks in from window upstairs it also helps for the dog to go in and out to leave the door openI am considering purchasing another one for an upstairs patio window definitely would recommend

The curtain is much lighter than I expected, the brackets and screws where incompatible as the screw heads passed through the brackets and no washers were provided that would have solved the problemThat Saif, it's keeps the flies out of my house now so I can have my kitchen door open on hot days.....when we have them🤔
