With the onset of warm weather, everything in the world comes to life. It would seem that romance, feelings, spring, summer, relaxation... But in all this there is a reverse, dark and very unpleasant annoying side. Yes, with the onset of warm weather, insects awaken. This is a separate part of the memories of the long-awaited summer.

Is there a way to avoid encountering insects?

Mosquitoes, flies, midges terrorize people every day. You can't hide from them under a blanket - it's hot. You can't run away from them. Scare away? Bad option. All fumigators, tablets and medicines from cans are ineffective.

The only and correct choice is strong protection. Mosquito nets installed on all open areas (windows, doors, vents) will help repel the attack of unnecessary midges. But here the question arises of how to make this barrier.

Varieties

These days, mosquito nets are becoming more and more common. Now you can find green or blue bars in almost every window. The material from which this barrier is made differs in structure and quality. For example, there are soft meshes and hard ones. Some have larger cells, others have smaller ones. All these parameters affect the quality of protection, throughput, durability of the mesh, etc. Barriers also differ depending on the place of use. There is a mosquito net on the window. It, as the name implies, can be installed on balcony frames and in the windows themselves. There is a mosquito net on the door.

This “heavy artillery” is used most often in country ladies. Where doorways are open all day. No less significant differentiation occurs according to the type of attachment. Typically these are hooks to which a frame with a mesh is attached, but there are more interesting examples. Recently, a mosquito net with magnets appeared on the market. Very convenient to use. There are also nets with Velcro. The principle is almost the same, only the materials are different.

Any mosquito net performs its direct function - protection from insects. Other additions are provided only to simplify operation.

Why pay if you can do it yourself?

Yes, it’s nice if there is a mosquito net in the house. You can do anything with your own hands, but when it comes to making such things, you need to ask yourself: “Is it possible?” Here you need to think carefully about everything. Making a mosquito net with your own hands is quite simple. Buying this design is not always profitable. Firstly, it’s cheaper to do it yourself, that’s a fact.

Secondly, sometimes commercial options will not fit the intended purpose: a window or door. A frame for a mosquito net is not always suitable for old Soviet openings. Or new, but non-standard sizes. Be that as it may, a mosquito net, which is not so difficult to make with your own hands, is in some cases more practical than a purchased one. The choice has been made, let's get started.

DIY mosquito net (option one)

First you need to decide on the type of structure. Again, there are many types of mesh barriers. Which one to choose? To get started, you need to decide on an object.

In this version, let there be a window. If it is old and made of wood, then you won’t be able to cook much porridge with it. Due to the dilapidation, “upgrading” the windows risks ending in failure. The frame may crack, and then the whole thing will be over. Therefore, you need to attach a mosquito net carefully and using a certain technique. This is done in two stages. The first is working on the workpiece. The second is installation.

First stage

You need to start by building a grid. It will require some material. Actually, a roll of mosquito net itself, wooden twines (preferably square), buttons and small nails. The matter is simple and uncomplicated. First step. You need to measure the window frame.

You need to subtract one and a half centimeters from the data obtained. He will indulge in various scams. The second step is preparing the frame for the mesh. Wooden twines need to be cut to the size of the window and nailed together. We attach a mosquito net to this base (using buttons). It is better to bend the edges of a kind of barrier. So the appearance will be transformed, the product will become neat, the mesh will not diverge.

Stage two

Here you will have to tinker with the windows themselves. How will the frame be attached? There are two hooks at the top and bottom, through which the base will go. You can attach them with glue. Since any rough interference with a wooden window can lead to depressurization. And these are drafts and a frame swollen with water. Why is this necessary? It is important to install the above hooks so that they do not interfere with the closing/opening of the window. And now the mosquito net for the window is ready, all that remains is to connect the two parts together.

"Heavy Artillery"

Windows, of course, should be protected first, but don’t forget about other passages. A mosquito net on the door will help, especially on very hot days, to keep the passage open. This way, a light breeze will enter the apartment, but unnecessary insects will not. How to implement this plan? A door screen can be installed in the same way as a window. That is, build a wooden frame, stretch a mosquito barrier over it and secure it at the base.

Sounds simple. But not everything is so good. The dimensions of the doorway are much larger than the dimensions of a small window. It's worth remembering. Because of this, the construction itself will be difficult (the frame is huge, so the mesh will sag in one place or another, and this is a reason for insects to crawl into the resulting gap). What's the solution? The location of the door gives many options. One of them is the most profitable. The mosquito net in the doorway will not be static. How is this? It is better to leave the insect barrier taut.

Work progress

As always, you first need to measure the future surface; add one and a half centimeters to the results obtained. The idea is simple. It is worth making holes in the mesh and placing special rings on them (these can be bought at any craft store). They slam shut on their own. These rings will prevent the mesh from spreading at the seams, which is what is needed. As for fastenings, they can serve as the most ordinary nails. Preferably small size. The scheme is like this. There will be a ring every ten centimeters. The nail must match it. This should be done efficiently and slowly. Otherwise, curvature cannot be avoided.

Alternative options

Installing mosquito nets takes a lot of time and effort. Therefore, not everyone can afford this pleasure. But there are new options that can make the process easier. A magnetic mosquito net is a wonderful alternative to classic frames. Such a net is not afraid of either wind or rain. It won't come off. Only a person can remove it. How does it work? There are two basics here. The first is the iron edging. The second is the magnets themselves. It is impossible to make this option yourself: there are no necessary materials. But you are always welcome to try to install it. The iron frame is attached to the window frame using small screws. This is, perhaps, all the trouble. The rest is up to the forces of attraction. Small magnets are sewn into the mosquito net. If you press them against the frame, they will fit tightly. A couple of hand movements to ensure everything is pressed tightly together and the installation is complete. At the right time, this barrier can be removed.

Any mosquito net will protect your home from annoying insects. You just have to try a little.

With the arrival of warmer weather, hordes of insects come back to life and you can’t live without mosquito nets. Only they are able to protect the premises from the ubiquitous insects. And then some copies manage to leak somewhere. But since the nets are for some reason very short-lived, they have to be replaced or repaired. You won’t call a company representative every time and pay pretty decent money for a job that only takes a couple of tens of minutes. That’s why they try to make/repair/install a mosquito net with their own hands.

Types of mosquito nets

• Frame. This is a frame made of metal-plastic profile, on which a mesh is stretched. The mesh is attached to the frame using special fasteners: Z-shaped brackets or plungers. This design is the most common, since at a low price it protects well from insects. The cost of producing a mesh is from 500 rubles per square meter.
• Rolled. They are designed like roller blinds or blinds. A roll of mesh is attached to the top of the window. By pulling the edge, the mesh is lowered and fixed. When released from the latch, it rises up. An excellent device, but the price is from 5.5 thousand rubles per square.

  

  Rolled mesh - good, but expensive

• Swing nets. The mesh is stretched on the frame, but the frame is reinforced, with a larger cross-section than a frame mosquito net. It is most often installed on doors - balcony or entrance, but can also be installed on windows. It is attached to a door or window block using regular hinges. To prevent it from opening due to gusts of wind, magnets are built into it. The estimated cost of this type of mesh is about 2 thousand rubles. per square.

  

• Sliding. These are meshes specifically for sliding window systems. They also have a frame on which the mesh is stretched. BUT this frame moves along special guides that are screwed on from the outside. This way it is possible to move the mesh to the place where the sash is open.

  

  Sliding - aluminum windows based on the same system

• Pleated. The method of action is similar to the roll one, but it is collected not upward, but to the side. There are two guides - top and bottom, along which the mesh that folds into an accordion moves on wheels.

  

  Pleated mosquito net - original and not cheap

As you can see, there are many types. Nevertheless, in 90% of cases frame structures are installed. At a low price, they create a completely normal level of comfort.

Types of fastening frame mesh

Most often, it is frame mosquito nets that are installed. There are two ways to attach them: Z-shaped brackets and rods (plungers).

When mounted on brackets, they are mounted on the street side. In most cases, this is convenient and, if circumstances permit, this installation method is chosen. The dimensions of the mesh must be larger than the light clearance of the window sash: the frame is inserted from the outside.

When using plungers, the mesh is also attached behind the glass, but the clamps themselves (rods) are located on the side of the room. This device is convenient on the first floors: it is impossible to remove the mesh from the outside. When installing a mosquito net on rods, its frame must be equal to the size of the light opening. You can’t do it with millimeter precision, but to ensure there is no gap, a brush is attached around the perimeter. It prevents insects from getting in.

How to measure a window for an order

Quite often, a frame with a mesh is ordered from a company, and it is installed on the windows yourself. When ordering, you will be asked to indicate the dimensions of the light opening. The required measurements are taken with the sash open. You measure the distance from one rubber seal to the other: width and height. Measure in several places, write down with millimeter accuracy. The accuracy determines how well the grids will fit your window.

Watch how to measure windows to order mosquito stacks in the video.

What you need to know

When ordering or purchasing a mesh for a window, you need to pay attention to its characteristics. Firstly, it is available with different cell sizes: from 0.6 mm to 1.2 mm. The smaller the gap, the less likely it is that an insect will “leak through” and the less fluff there will be. But with high density, air also passes poorly, which can be critical in the southern regions. Therefore, the optimal option is somewhere in the middle 0.8-1.mm.

The mesh is also available from different materials:

• Cotton. Cotton thread has high UV resistance. Its fleecy structure increases the “retention” ability: insects do not crawl through such a mesh. But since the fiber is natural, it reacts poorly to moisture, is often affected by mold and rot, and therefore is rarely used.
• Polyester. The most common material. It is quite strong and durable, although it has a low price, but does not have any special properties.
• Nylon. A special anti-allergenic mesh is made from nylon. It is produced using a special technology with complex weaving. Due to this, it even traps dust and pollen. Such nets are often called “anti-dust” or “anti-allergy”.
• Fiberglass. It is considered optimal because it has high transparency: when using such grids, the degree of illumination almost does not change. At the same time, its strength is very high - even comparable to the strength of metal. An anti-cat mosquito net is made from fiberglass, which can withstand the weight of the animal and does not tear under the claws.

If no special properties are needed, choose the usual one - made of polyester. Sometimes they may ask what color mesh is needed. The most invisible to the eye is gray, so that’s what you can order.

How to install a frame mesh on a plastic window

You have received a ready-made mesh. It comes with 4 small Z-brackets (brackets). Please note that they have shelves of different sizes: two 4 cm each and two 2.5 cm each. Brackets with large shelves are installed at the top of the frame, with smaller ones at the bottom.

Z-shaped brackets have different shelf lengths

To attach to the frame, each support bracket will need 2 self-tapping screws with a screw, which are also called “seeds”. You will need a marker with a thin lead or a soft pencil. You will need a drill with a 2 mm drill bit and a screwdriver or screwdriver.

On the outside of the window frame we draw a strip 3 cm below the edge. We stand on a small stepladder or on a chair, take the frame with the mesh outside the window, and also lean out halfway. Applying the bottom edge of the frame to the drawn line, mark its top.

You can do without manipulating the frame: you need to accurately measure its height and set this value aside from the line drawn below. From the resulting point we put another 1.8 cm up and here we draw a second line. We will use it to align the fastener shelves.

We take brackets with long walls. We apply it so that the protrusion is on the line. You need to retreat about 10 cm from the edges relative to the light clearance. Mark the points where you will need to make holes. We carry out a similar operation with “short” brackets from below. To control, measure the distance between the marks at the top and bottom. It should be 1.8 cm longer than the length of your frame.If everything is correct, drill holes in the profile (2 mm drill) and install brackets on the “seeds”. Actually, that’s all, we can assume that the mosquito net was installed with your own hands.

Now take the net by the handles, turn it slightly sideways, and take it outside. Insert the upper edge into the upper brackets, align it vertically, lift it all the way, place the edge behind the lower brackets and lower it. The mesh stands supported by brackets.

It is removed in reverse order. Take hold of the handles, lift up until it stops, remove the lower edge from the brackets, moving the mesh a little away from you (a couple of centimeters, no more). Then, moving it down a little, you pull it out of the upper brackets.

Installation on corners

There is another type of fastener, similar in principle to “work” with brackets - corners. When installing this type of clamp for a mosquito net, you also need to accurately measure the width. To do this, you will have to find the center of the light opening, from which to set aside half the width of the grid. The inner part of the corner should correspond to the width of the frame with the mesh with a small gap of 2-3 mm for freedom of fixation.

That is, if there is this type of fastening, they fix the corners and the width should be exactly at the corners. When installing, we leave the same gap of 1.5-1.8 cm in height. It makes it possible to install the frame in the mounts, and is held in place due to the fact that the upper shelves are larger.

Do-it-yourself mosquito net: we assemble it ourselves

As you understand, you can assemble the frame and stretch the mesh yourself. All components can be purchased from companies that sell spare parts for plastic windows. The following components will be needed:

• profile for mesh frame MFP2;
• impost profile (transverse partition with a mesh height of more than 1 m) MFPI and two fastenings for it;
• mesh fabric;
• corners for assembly;
• sealing cord (rubber or even woven);
• handles - 2 pcs;
• self-tapping screws with a countersunk head with a drill, dimensions 3.9*16 mm;

Frame assembly

The frame consists of two long profile sections and two short ones. They are connected to each other using corners. They can be plastic (cheap but short-lived material) and metal, painted with white or brown paint (to match the profile).

They also often install an impost - a jumper, which is installed approximately in the middle of the long side. It increases the rigidity of the structure and prevents long profiles from “playing”.

The lengths of the profiles must be cut taking into account the fact that they are assembled into corners. Therefore, 20 mm is subtracted from the width and length of the light opening (how to measure as described above) - this is exactly the length that is replaced by the corners.

Saw off two sections of the required length from the profiles. It is better to cut with a hand saw for metal - you get a more even cut with almost no burrs. It is brought to smoothness with a file or sandpaper. Then on a flat surface - more conveniently on a table, laying the profile with the grooves up, fold the rectangle, insert the corner holders - the grooves are also up. In the photo, the grooves are directed downwards, but this is inconvenient - you then have to turn the frame over.

If the corners and profiles match normally, they should be inserted tightly. Very tight. It won't work to put it in place with your hands. You will have to tamp it down, and in order not to damage the plastic, use a lining - a wooden block or a piece of chipboard, as in the photo.

When assembling, also check the corners. They must be strictly 90°, or the frame will be oblique, and there will be cracks into which mosquito flies can crawl. After the rectangle is assembled, we install the impost. We saw it off 2-3 mm shorter than the resulting width of the frame, insert holders on both sides, and secure it to the frame in the groove.

Stretch the mesh

We spread the mesh over the assembled frame. It should be 3-5 cm larger than the frame on each side: this will make it easier to tighten. We take the cord and press it through the mesh into the groove. You can start from one of the corners, or you can from the middle of the short side, alternately moving to the right and then to the left.

The cord goes in quite rigidly; in workshops they roll it up with a roller; if it is missing, you can use any object with a rounded surface. The handle of a stationery or kitchen knife, screwdriver holder, scissor handle, etc. will do. While straightening the mesh, insert the cord.

Installation of handles

Having reached the installation site of the impost, we install the handles. Usually they are thin, plastic, inserted into a groove under the mesh, then pressed with a cord. There is a second type of handles - they are denser, sometimes with a metal base, screwed onto the profile with self-tapping screws, but after the mesh has been tensioned. If you have a choice, take metal ones or at least plastic ones, but thick ones. The plastic ones are very flimsy and often break.

If during the process the mesh lies crooked, the cord can be pulled out by prying it with a screwdriver or something similar, straightened, and rolled up again. Having finished stretching, check the width and height of the frame at several points. If there are deviations somewhere, it means that the mesh is stretched too tightly in this place. It is loosened by pressing a little with the palm of your hand near the frame. If it is not possible to equalize the width, the cord is hooked and pulled out at some interval. Having equalized the width, holding the mesh, tuck it in again.

If all the dimensions match, you can cut the cord, tuck in the tail, then walk along the profile again, checking that the seal fits evenly. Now the protruding edges can be trimmed. This is usually done using a stationery knife. That's it, the mosquito net has been assembled with your own hands, you can start installing it on the window.

An example of assembly can be seen in the following video. This is an advertising video: the company sells ready-made kits for self-assembly. The process is not detailed enough, but it can be considered in general terms.

Homemade mosquito nets: saving to the fullest

If you calculate the cost of all spare parts and take into account the time lost on purchasing and assembling them, the benefit is dubious. They still sell components to you at a higher price than to companies. It can only be useful in the sense that after self-assembly you can easily repair it yourself.

However, there are several very inexpensive options for homemade mosquito nets. They are made using a frameless principle and are mounted directly on the window. There are two ways to install this:

• Velcro is a knitted tape that consists of two parts - a tape with hooks and a counter with a rough surface. The mesh is cut out a little larger than the light opening, the counter part is sewn to the mesh, and the part with hooks is attached to the frame around the perimeter of the window with an adhesive layer.
• On the sealing cord. It is inserted in place of the standard seal. To do this, remove it (pry it up and pull it out), stretch the mesh over the opening, and press the cord into the groove. The principle is the same as when installing a mesh in a frame.

For the second way to make a budget mosquito net yourself, watch the video. The idea is great, the costs are minimal.

How to reduce the amount of dust through the mesh

Replacing handles on a mosquito net

A plastic window will not be 100% functional without a mosquito net. In addition to its main function - protection from insects, the net protects your home from dust, poplar fluff and small debris carelessly thrown out by neighbors from above. If you decide to buy a ready-made mesh, take your time.

We will tell you how to make a mosquito net for a plastic window with your own hands for 72 rubles.

There are two reasons that encourage people to refuse to buy a ready-made mosquito net in a frame with fasteners. Firstly, this is the price, which depends on the size of the window and is approximately 700 - 1000 rubles. Secondly, the problem is where to store window screens in winter. They are quite large and take up significant space in the apartment, which is always not enough. The option we will introduce you to will cost you 10 times less and will take up no more space in your closet than a shoe box.

So, the choice is obvious, let's get to work. To do this, we will need a piece of ordinary mosquito net the size of the width of the window opening, with an increase of 4-5 cm on each side. You can purchase it at any hardware store. You also need to buy a cord, optimally with a diameter of 4 mm. Please note that the diameter must be indicated on the cord markings. When purchasing, you should not go by eye, since you will not be able to fix the mesh with a cord of a smaller diameter, and it will be much more difficult to deal with a larger diameter.

Installation of mosquito net

When the necessary materials are already in front of you, the installation of the mosquito net itself will take you no more than half an hour. Open the window sash where you will install the mosquito net.

Carefully remove the rubber seal from the frame around the perimeter of the open window. There is no need to remove the rubber seal on the sash itself.

Wipe off dust from all surfaces you will be working with.

It is most convenient to start installing the mosquito net fabric from the upper left corner. We apply the mosquito net to the frame and fix it with a cord, pressing it into the groove freed from the sealing tape. In order for the cord to confidently take its place, we recommend pressing it using some blunt object, such as the handle of a kitchen knife. Continue fixing the mesh around the entire perimeter. Be guided by the cells on the mesh so that the canvas lies flat, and also try to mount it with good tension. This will make the finished work more aesthetically pleasing.

The remaining edges of the mosquito net can be cut down to the very cord along the entire perimeter, but if you plan to remove and reinstall it during the summer, then it is better to leave this edge. It will make re-installation easier. To remove this structure, just pull the cord.

There is an even easier, but less practical way to attach a homemade mosquito net. This is fastened using regular Velcro. A piece of Velcro with hooks is glued to the frame around the perimeter, and the second part is sewn onto mesh fabric. It is worth saying that the structure of the mesh even allows you to do without the pile part of the Velcro. It adheres to the hooks quite well on its own. Both options for installing a homemade mosquito net will allow you to save money and usable space in your home.

DIY mosquito net. Video

A do-it-yourself mosquito net can be made for windows and doors of any size, taking into account the features of their configuration.

The standard element of a plastic window has a lot of advantages, which is why people use and install an outwardly quite modern, homemade mesh on magnets in a wooden window.

A mosquito net has a certain service life, after which its design gradually begins to deteriorate.

As a result, you have to repair it, order a new one, or save money and try to make it yourself.

The article tells you how to make a mosquito net.

Manufacturing options, simple and complex

In order to protect against annoying insects, it can be used for both wooden and plastic windows.

The following materials will be required:

• nylon material with small cells (1.2 mm);
• Velcro tape (one side is pile, the other is hooks);
• construction adhesive (for fixing the mosaic).

Before installing the mosquito net, degrease the surface around the perimeter inside the window opening. This is the mount that the adhesive tape will stick to.

Be sure to make sure that the future installation does not become an obstacle when the plastic window is closed.

Then do the following:

• Divide the adhesive tape into two parts. Apply glue to the part with the hooks on the reverse side and glue it around the perimeter of the window opening. Let it dry and set more firmly;
• Adjust the nylon material to fit the window opening, with an allowance equal to the width of the tape;
• Fold the seam allowance, sew a ribbon to it with the nap facing outward;
• Apply the finished mosquito net, edged with fleecy tape, to the tape with hooks glued to the window opening.

That’s how easy it is to make a mosquito net for a wooden or plastic window in a minimum amount of time. To do this procedure, you do not need a full-fledged repair.

The second option is more complex and involves attaching the mosquito net to the frame.

You can make a mosquito net from the following materials:

• metal corners 4 pcs (width 1 cm);
• plastic cable channel (box, size 15x10 mm);
• construction adhesive, blind rivets (16 pcs);
• thin nylon mesh of the required size.

Let's start building the structure:

• We take measurements from the outside of the window opening, based on the available data, we make a frame. To do this, mark the length and width of the future structure on the plastic box. Using a knife, we cut off the required length of the vertical and horizontal frame parts, with a 45° cut. We grind the cut area with a sharpening stone;
• Vertical and horizontal parts are matched in the desired position. We fix the corners with a connecting metal corner using rivets (can be replaced with nuts and screws);
• We put a mosquito net on the finished frame, with an allowance of 2-3 cm protruding beyond its perimeter;
• We clamp the mesh on top with the cover of the plastic cable channel. During snapping, we alternate the long and short sides. To prevent the lid from opening, apply glue under it in some places. Trim any excess fabric sticking out.

The mosquito net is ready, all that remains is to install it in the window opening using Z-shaped brackets.

Features of the design of a mosquito door

A do-it-yourself mosquito net can also be made with magnets for a balcony or front door.

Additional plastic structures with a thin mosquito net are more suitable for a balcony.

While the front door will require the use of a more durable material - a metal profile or wooden beams. Plastic options will not work here.

Step-by-step instructions for making a mosquito net for the door:

• We take accurate measurements of the opening and determine the size of the door leaf;
• We prepare the horizontal strips, make them 6 mm smaller (this is necessary so that the door opens easily and does not rub against the opening);
• We prepare the vertical strips, removing 3 mm from each side. They must dock with horizontal strips;
• Using self-tapping screws we assemble a wooden frame. During the assembly process, we check the correctness of the angles with a square, they must correspond to 90°;
• To prevent the mosquito net from sagging, we measure two transverse slats and install them in the door parallel in the same plane with the same pitch inside the structure;
• We install the finished door frame in the doorway, provide its temporary fastening with wood chips, while maintaining the uniformity of the existing gaps. To exclude unscheduled repairs, we fix the joints of the beams with corners for reliability;
• After making sure that the mosquito door fits under the doorway, we mark the location of the hinges on it, after which you can remove the structure and install the hinges along the marked lines;
• At the final stage, we stretch the mosquito net over the frame, with an allowance of 3 cm outwards, and fix it on the frame with a stapler. We cut off the excess nylon with scissors;
• We install the finished door into the opening.

In the same way, you can make a mosquito net with magnets for your balcony door.

Features of restoration of mosquito nets

Repairing a mosquito-proof structure for a window involves several stages of action:

• Removing the structure from the brackets, cleaning from dust and dirt;
• Removing damaged nylon from the frame;
• Installing a new mosquito net in the frame.

Before repairs are made and the damaged structural element is replaced with a new one, it is worth paying attention to how the material to be removed is fixed to the frame.

Along the perimeter of the profile there are grooves into which the edges of the mosquito cloth are placed. There are handles parallel to each other on both sides of the structure.

All this is secured around the perimeter with a sealing cord. After the seal is carefully removed, the holders and mesh can be easily removed.

Repairs should be carried out carefully and remember that you have to work with a fragile structure. Special attention should be paid to the handles so as not to damage them.

Replacement of nylon is carried out by taking measurements from the old mesh, after which the required segment of material is cut off.

The new mosquito net is carefully pressed into the groove of the metal-plastic frame and secured with a silicone or rubber cord. Excess nylon material is cut off.

The repair is complete, the structure can be installed in its original location.

The weak point of a mosquito net for a window is the handles (holders) of the structure with which the net is installed.

Replacing the handle involves purchasing accessories and removing the sealing cord from the frame.

Step-by-step instructions on how to repair or replace a handle:

• Pry the rubber band from the corner of the frame, remove it from the groove and guide it to the place where the handle is installed (including the installation area);
• We remove the handle. In order for the holder to come out of the groove, it must be slightly pulled towards the corner;
• We install new handles in its place, lightly pressing on top. A characteristic click will indicate that the handle installation was successful;
• We place a sealing cord in the groove of the frame. In the area where the handle is replaced, the seal may be dented. To reduce this, you need to lather it - then it can easily return to the groove.

As you can see, repairing a mosquito net for a window or balcony door is a simple process and can be done in a matter of hours.
