Why phantom screens are the best
What makes our French door screens different?
Not all door screens are created equal. Phantom’s fly screens for French doors are constructed using durable fibreglass-coated mesh held on all sides by our robust zip track system. This means no sagging, no gaps, and no warping over time. Even better, they offer up to 55% UV protection, making your space cooler and more comfortable during warmer months.
We believe insect screens for French doors should be as beautiful as the homes they protect. That’s why our installers colour match every frame, align perfectly with your door handles and finishes, and ensure that nothing distracts from the natural aesthetic of your space.
Whether you choose a pleated screen for wide openings or our standard door screen for a traditional single or double door, you’ll enjoy elegant design and top-tier performance.
made-to-measure french door screens
Designed for UK homes
Our products are built with British homes in mind. That means screens that work in cooler climates, can handle sudden rain, and are built to stand up to everyday use. They’re also fully retractable, which means you can enjoy completely unobstructed doorways whenever you wish.
Phantom Screens are also suitable for new builds, listed buildings, or properties undergoing renovation. We work with architects and designers to ensure our screens enhance both function and form.

For most double French doors, we recommend our pleated screen. It can span openings up to 9 metres wide and features an elegant concertina-style mesh that retracts neatly when not in use. It’s ideal for both classic and contemporary homes. If you prefer a standard mesh look, our standard door screens are a great choice for smaller doors up to 2.4m wide.

We certainly think so! Our screens are handcrafted in the UK and designed to last. They’re colour-matched, retract fully, and include durable mesh that keeps out insects while maintaining airflow. Plus, every screen is custom fitted by trained professionals.

Manual door screens are typically only available in standard insect mesh. For power screens, we offer a wide variety of mesh, broken down into three categories:
- Insect mesh: blocks 100% of bugs, allows airflow
- Solar mesh: reduces heat and UV by up to 80%
- Privacy mesh: offers daytime privacy without blocking the view
Our screens are made with reinforced fibreglass mesh and powder-coated aluminium housings. They’re built to withstand everyday use and British weather. We back them with a limited lifetime warranty.
We can match any RAL colour or a selection of woodgrain finishes so your screen complements your frames and décor. The result is a subtle, integrated appearance.
Our team provides full service across England, Scotland and Wales, though our Phantom-trained trade partners may be required for installations far from our base in Peterborough. From initial survey to final fitting, we ensure a professional, tidy and expert experience.
Yes, as our screens are discreet and fully retractable, they are often approved for use in heritage properties. We can provide colour-matched finishes to blend into period joinery.
