Our cat has just started climbing up our front patio fly screen. Has anyone had the same experience, and had pet proof fly screens installed? If so, it would be great to have details of the supplier.
Many thanks

I’m tagging into this as I’d be interested too
If you never ask the question, the answer will always be....no
Re: Pet proof fly screens
Our cats used to open our screens to get out, they made a real mess of them. I have never heard of pet proof screens, I can't see how screens could be made 'pet proof'. If they are scratching them to get out, maybe install a cat flap, we did.
It's not the size of the dog in the fight, it's the size of the fight in the dog.
Re: Pet proof fly screens
In my case I don’t want a cat flap installed as one of my cats is an outdoor cat and I don’t want him in the house

Re: Pet proof fly screens
There are at least 2 types of mesh used on fly screens, plastic or aluminium. The plastic ones are a lot easier to damage than the more expensive aluminium type.

Mine were aluminium, still got ruined.

Call Franks Blinds on 97 790978. I know he offers these as an option on fly screens but I can’t comment on their effectiveness as ours are the standard material.

Not a sliding fly screen, but a hinged fly screen for the front doorway. I had this made by the business in Chloraka who make all kinds of aluminum screens,window frames , fly screens etc. I asked for the stronger aluminum mesh infill, which cost extra, but is much stronger than the normal one. So far it seems much more durable.
He speaks good English, came to my house to measure up and fitted it, and did a good job. Not cheap but hopefully worth it! He might be able to help you with the stronger mesh. So far it has kept visiting cat outside.
His shop is on the 'village road between Chloraka and Kissonerga you can see it.

Re: Pet proof fly screens
Thanks very much Kili01. Will look into it. Like Sadie we don't want a cat flap for the same reason.
Re: Pet proof fly screens
We used Franks Blinds for our pet proof screens and they were brilliant. He is very reasonably priced also.
