Screen those pesky intruders
Nowadays, a good house with luxurious interiors doesn’t make for a happy living. One needs to realise that a healthy lifestyle makes living all the more happier. With garbage piling up in the neighbourhoods, insects often find their way to our homes threatening our well-being.
It takes quite an effort to keep them at bay while at the same time ensuring that ‘the look’ is not compromised.
Aluminium-framed screening systems offer some relief from flies and mosquitoes buzzing in, crawling cockroaches and lizards, spiders weaving their webs, etc.
Cheap
Aluminium doesn’t rust easily, is light-weight and is cheaper compared to other metals. Powder-coated frame screening systems are sleek, sturdy and long lasting, informs Marc Richardson of Suraksha Enterprises, manufacturer of aluminium screening systems.
Given these advantages, this screening promises to last longer when compared to the other options available in market and are considered to be seven times stronger than the ordinary insect screens.
Most countries around the globe have adopted aluminium screening systems for they are considered safe and don’t warp or shrink like the plastic meshes that are stuck to windows.
Moreover, they add to the elegance of the interiors, given their classy finishing.
In case of aluminium door frames, they not only preserve the exterior view but also keep household secure.
Many models
The screens are offered in different models like openable mesh shutter system, fly mesh door, roller screening system (space saving) and sliding mesh system (for French windows).
It is virtually maintenance free as most of these models available in the market are vacuum-cleanable. Durability factor adds to the flexibility and they can be fitted to existing stainless steel and fibreglass netting as well as on all frames.
Aluminium-coated nettings cost around Rs.125 to Rs.325 per square feet which, going by market trends, is cheap compared to wood, Mr. Richardson says.
Aluminium tears easily when stretched during moulding of certain complex shapes.
Experts caution against pure aluminium models as they are lightweight andare prone to wear and tear.
