Understanding the Technology: What is a Magnetic Mesh Door?

At its core, a magnetic mesh door is a screen curtain crafted from a durable, lightweight mesh fabric, typically fiberglass or polyester. It is designed to hang in a doorway and features a central opening lined with a series of powerful magnets. When a person or pet passes through, the two sides of the screen part easily and then, thanks to the magnetic force, automatically snap back together, creating a seal that blocks insects, leaves, and debris.

This simple yet ingenious mechanism is the key to its appeal. Unlike traditional sliding or hinged screen doors, it allows for hands-free passage, making it ideal for carrying groceries, entertaining guests on a patio, or for households with children and pets. The effectiveness of a door magnet net is determined by three primary factors: the quality of the mesh, the strength and number of the magnets, and the integrity of its construction.

Technical Deep Dive: Anatomy of the CRScreen Magnetic Screen Door

Not all magnetic screen doors are created equal. True quality lies in the details of the materials and engineering. At CRScreen, we leverage over 15 years of manufacturing expertise to create a product that stands apart in durability, performance, and longevity. Let's dissect the technical specifications.

Material Science and Construction

Mesh Fabric: We primarily use high-density, fire-retardant polyester mesh (typically 60g/m²). This material offers superior tear resistance and UV stability compared to standard fiberglass, ensuring it won't fray or degrade under sun exposure. The mesh count, often around 18x16 per square inch, provides an optimal balance between airflow, visibility, and insect protection.
Magnetic System: Our doors feature 26-36 powerful neodymium magnets strategically sewn into reinforced webbing along the entire central seam. Neodymium magnets (a type of rare-earth magnet) provide a much stronger magnetic flux density (measured in Gauss) than cheaper ferrite magnets, ensuring a faster, quieter, and more complete seal every time.
Frame and Seams: The entire perimeter of our net for door with magnets is double-stitched and reinforced with durable webbing. This prevents sagging and ensures the tacks or adhesive strips (we provide both) have a secure surface to grip, guaranteeing a long-lasting installation.

Detail matters: Reinforced stitching and high-strength magnets define a quality door magnet net.

Customization: Tailoring a Magnetic Mesh Door to Your Needs

While standard door sizes are common, many homes have unique entryways. We recognize that a one-size-fits-all approach doesn't work. A poorly fitting screen will have gaps and fail to function correctly. That's why we offer comprehensive customization options for our magnetic mesh door products.

How to Order a Custom Size:

Measure Your Door Frame: Using a tape measure, record the width of the inner door frame (A) and the height of the inner door frame (B). For best results, measure at three points (top, middle, bottom) for both width and height and use the largest measurement.
Add to Dimensions: For a proper surface-mount installation, add at least 2 inches (5cm) to your width measurement and 1 inch (2.5cm) to your height measurement. This ensures the hook-and-loop fastener has ample surface area on the door frame.
Submit Your Order: Visit our Magnetic Screen Door product page and select the "Custom Size" option. Enter your final calculated dimensions, and our team will craft a screen to your exact specifications.

Our ability to provide custom solutions is a core part of our service, ensuring every customer gets a perfect, gap-free fit for any doorway, including French doors, sliding glass doors, and oversized entries.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the difference between polyester and fiberglass mesh?

Polyester is a more premium and durable material for a magnetic mesh door. It has higher tensile strength, making it more resistant to tearing from pets or high traffic. It is also more resistant to UV degradation and creasing. Fiberglass is a more common, budget-friendly option, but it can become brittle over time with sun exposure and is more prone to ripping and fraying.

2. How do I choose the right size for my door?

First, measure only the door opening itself (the "inner frame"). Then, add at least 2 inches (5cm) to the width and 1 inch (2.5cm) to the height. This ensures the adhesive hook-and-loop fastener has enough flat surface on the door frame to attach securely. Always measure the door, not your old screen. If your measurements fall between sizes, choose the larger one. For a guaranteed perfect fit, we recommend our custom sizing service.

3. Will the installation damage my door frame?

No. The primary installation method uses a full-frame hook-and-loop fastener (similar to Velcro®). The adhesive backing is strong but generally safe for most painted wood, metal, and vinyl door frames. It can be removed with care, sometimes with the help of a hairdryer to soften the glue. We also include optional pushpins for added security on wooden frames, which will leave small pinholes.

4. How strong are the magnets? Will the screen blow open in the wind?

We use high-grade N35 neodymium magnets, which are among the strongest commercially available. They provide a firm seal. To combat wind, our door magnet net includes built-in gravity sticks/weights at the bottom. This added weight helps prevent the screen from blowing open in moderate breezes. In very high wind conditions, it is possible for any magnetic screen to open, but ours is designed to resist it better than most.

5. Is the screen pet-friendly? Will my dog or cat be able to use it?

Absolutely. This is one of the key benefits. Pets can easily push their way through the magnetic seam, and it will close automatically behind them. The durable polyester mesh is designed to withstand claws better than standard fiberglass. However, for pets that are prone to aggressive scratching or chewing, supervision is still recommended.

6. How do I clean and maintain my magnetic mesh door?

Maintenance is simple. For light cleaning, you can wipe it down with a damp cloth while it is still hanging. For a deeper clean, you can easily detach it from the hook-and-loop frame, lay it on a flat surface, and gently wash it with mild soap and water. Rinse thoroughly and allow it to air dry completely before re-hanging. Do not put it in a washing machine or dryer.

7. What does "18x16 mesh count" mean?

This is an industry-standard term that refers to the number of strands per square inch. An "18x16" count means there are 18 horizontal strands and 16 vertical strands in every square inch of the mesh. This density is scientifically proven to be effective at blocking most common insects, including mosquitoes, flies, and moths, while still allowing for excellent airflow and visibility.
