Fly Screen Door for Jayco etc
« on: November 11, 2010, 11:28:14 AM »
Thought some might be interested, just picked one of these up for my Jayco and are pretty cheap and look nice and easy. A rather simple idea really...... :cheers:

We have one and they are Fantastic, wouldn't be without it - especially for people who have kids who are constantly running in and out of the Camper.

That is great to know, having a 2 and 3 year old, I guess it will get heaps of use....... :cheers:

Hey Teabag, after I got my flyscreen, I also used the velcro to hang a cheap plastic shoe organiser on the inside of the door (so that when the door is open it sits outside the Camper) I then fill this up with stuff (including shoes) that we are constantly going inside for ie suncreen, insect repellant, pegs etc. There are pictures on a thread I did earlier - little things I did to make my jayco hawk more user friendly.  (sorry for the thread hi jack)

Cheers

Yep, we have one on the Eagle.

She also does a nifty little hanging bag, to go over the bed.

Teabag, I think you'd look better with the old retro coloured strips.  Sorta like the fish and chip shops - you know you do cook a mean piece of fish.  ;D

Was in Mitre10 today and found a 'Smart Home Products' flywire curtain for $39. It has a plastic frame at the top I can clip to the gutter above the door.

Thanks Teabag, 

I just ordered one for the Goldstream.  They got straight back to me to check that the measurements were right as they've only done a few for the Goldstream.

Looking forward to shutting out those nasty little critters.

Should have got one of these babies!  Such a great idea to close itself  ... Or a few of those ... the odd one of these and two of those ...

Sorry to bump up such an old thread but I didn't see the point in starting a new one.

We're looking at solutions to put a fly screen on the doorway of the Swan (kids!) and BugMesh looks perfect but wanted to hear others opinions first. Have you use this and do you recommend it for a camper?
