Due to the climate in our country, insect protection for communal and residential buildings is essential. Despite installing professional ventilation systems or using special narrow ventilation sashes, it may be necessary to keep unwanted visitors away when using terrace doors and windows. Almost everyone uses insect screens, so we are aware of their operational, surface, and lifespan issues. In this product category, the quality is defined – and thus noticeable – by color consistency and mechanical connection to the receiving structure (usually window or door frames). The static capacity of the insect screen casing (and/or frame), the quality and material of the mesh, and the load-bearing capacity and lifespan of the moving structures are crucial.
The work of the product developers in Salzburg is commendable, as the Schlotterer IGI insect screen catalog offers long-lasting types for every need, providing excellent solutions for everything. One thing you won’t find among Schlotterer IGI products: compromise between easy sellability and high lifespan, as there is no compromise on quality!
Every Schlotterer VORO, RESA, and RAFF system can be equipped (even retroactively) with Schlotterer IGI insect screens.
The IGI insect screen family offers hinged, roller, fixed (with multiple fastening methods), and sliding (multi-wing) versions:
The roller insect screens are made in a draft-proof version as standard, and when rewinding, they feature automatic braking to protect the user. Handling is comfortable yet secure, with easy locking in the end position, but releasing it is child’s play, saving the user from broken nails.
Note! Due to technical reasons, the 4PLUS mesh type cannot be used with roller operation!
In the Sclotterer IGI family, fixed screens are available in multiple versions. The range starts from aluminium frames that can only be externally fixed, but extends to thin fixed frames that can be retrofitted under system-alien roller shutters using ingenious spring-loaded stainless steel mechanisms from the inside. The proprietary product development ensures that customers will have no complaints about the products even 15 years later.
Schlotterer IGI sliding wing systems have the greatest advantages over their competitors. They work with unique inertia wing profiles and rail systems, enabling insect protection for large lifting-sliding glass walls without horizontal – view-disrupting – mullions! They can be installed and operated in multiple rail versions.
The quality and minimal design of Schlotterer’s hinged insect screen doors make us forget the “shock” caused by products available on the domestic market. This technically unquestionable door is a miracle integrated into a narrow, yet strong, frame, into which a powder-coated aluminium locking plate, handle, and many accessories can be ordered. Its robust hardware promises high durability, and its operation is smooth and sophisticated.
