Are insect screens included when you buy sliding doors from Europe?

In Europe, insect screens and sliding doors are typically sold as separate products.

Unlike in the U.S., it’s rare to find sliding doors with built-in screens in Europe. However, Polish manufacturers recognize the preference of American customers and often offer this option—just remember to request it.

Before finalizing your order, make sure to clearly confirm with your supplier that all necessary insect screens are included for each sliding door you need.

PLEATED horizontal screen

This product is designed for installation in patio doors or balcony recesses, and it can also be used with lift-and-slide doors.

It features a pleated mesh that folds neatly into the side profile, saving space and ensuring smooth door operation. The design allows you to stop the fly screen at any desired position.

STANDARD sliding screen

The STANDARD sliding fly screen is an excellent solution for sliding and lift-and-slide doors. Its low-profile track is ideal for doors with a low threshold, allowing smooth opening and closing.

The standard version includes a grip located in the center of the screen, though this feature can be omitted if preferred.

“SLIDER” sliding screen

The “Slider” fly screen is ideal for threshold-free sliding door systems, as it’s installed on floor-level tracks. With two sliding panels, it can cover openings up to 59.05 in wide.

Stability in larger installations is achieved with a clamped aluminum internal corner, while brush seals around the entire frame ensure complete seal integrity.
