A plastic window will not be 100% functional without a mosquito net. In addition to its main function - protection from insects, the net protects your home from dust, poplar fluff and small debris carelessly thrown out by neighbors from above. If you decide to buy a mesh in finished form, take your time.

We will tell you how to make it yourself mosquito net for a plastic window for 72 rubles.

There are two reasons that encourage people to refuse to buy a ready-made mosquito net in a frame with fasteners. Firstly, this is the price, which depends on the size of the window and is approximately 700 - 1000 rubles. Secondly, the problem is where to store window screens in winter. They are quite large and take up significant space in the apartment, which is always not enough. The option we’ll introduce you to will cost you 10 times less and will take up no more space in your closet than a shoe box.

So, the choice is obvious, let's get to work. To do this, we need a piece of regular mosquito net the size of the width window opening, with an increase of 4-5 cm on each side. You can buy it at any hardware store. You also need to buy a cord, optimally with a diameter of 4 mm. Please note that the diameter must be indicated on the cord markings. When purchasing, you should not go by eye, since you will not be able to fix the mesh with a cord of a smaller diameter, and it will be much more difficult to deal with a larger diameter.

Installation of mosquito net

When necessary materials already in front of you, the installation of the mosquito net itself will take you no more than half an hour. Open the window sash where you will install the mosquito net.

Carefully remove the rubber seal from the frame around the perimeter of the open window. There is no need to remove the sealing rubber on the sash itself.

A do-it-yourself mosquito net can be made for windows and doors of any size, taking into account the features of their configuration.

Standard element A plastic window has a lot of advantages, which is why people use and install an outwardly quite modern, homemade mesh on magnets in a wooden window.

The mosquito net has a certain service life, upon completion of which, its structure gradually begins to deteriorate.

As a result, you have to repair it, order a new one, or save money and try to make it yourself.

The article tells you how to make a mosquito net.

Manufacturing options, simple and complex

In order to protect against annoying insects, it can be used for both wooden and plastic windows.

The following materials will be required:

• nylon material with small cells (1.2 mm);
• Velcro tape (one side is pile, the other is hooks);
• construction adhesive (for fixing the mosaic).

Before installing the mosquito net, degrease the surface around the perimeter inside the window opening. This is the mount that the adhesive tape will stick to.

Be sure to make sure that the future installation does not become an obstacle when the plastic window is closed.

Then do the following:

• Divide the adhesive tape into two parts. Apply glue to the part with the hooks on the reverse side and glue it around the perimeter of the window opening. Let it dry and set more firmly;
• Adjust the nylon material to fit the window opening, with an allowance equal to the width of the tape;
• Fold the seam allowance, sew a ribbon to it with the nap facing outward;
• Apply the finished mosquito net, edged with fleecy tape, to the tape with hooks glued to the window opening.

It's as simple as that minimal amount time, a mosquito net is made on a wooden or plastic window. To do this procedure, you do not need a full-fledged repair.

The second option is more complex and involves attaching the mosquito net to the frame.

You can make a mosquito net from the following materials:

• metal corners 4 pcs (width 1 cm);
• plastic cable channel (box, size 15x10 mm);
• construction adhesive, blind rivets (16 pcs);
• thin nylon mesh of the required size.

Let's start building the structure:

• We shoot from outside Measure the window opening and make a frame based on the available data. To do this, mark the length and width on the plastic box. future design. Using a knife, we cut off the required length of the vertical and horizontal frame parts, with a 45° cut. We grind the cut area with a sharpening stone;
• Vertical and horizontal parts are matched in the desired position. We fix the corners with a connecting metal corner using rivets (can be replaced with nuts and screws);
• We put a mosquito net on the finished frame, with an allowance of 2-3 cm protruding beyond its perimeter;
• We clamp the mesh on top with the cover of the plastic cable channel. During snapping, we alternate the long and short sides. To prevent the lid from opening, apply glue under it in some places. Trim any excess fabric sticking out.

Mosquito net ready, all that remains is to install it in the window opening using Z-shaped brackets.

Features of the design of a mosquito door

A do-it-yourself mosquito net can also be made with magnets for a balcony or front door.

Additional plastic structures with a thin mosquito net are more suitable for a balcony.

While Entrance door will require the use of more durable material – metal profile or wooden beams. Plastic options won't fit here.

Step-by-step instructions for making a mosquito net for the door:

• We take accurate measurements of the opening and determine the size of the door leaf;
• We prepare the horizontal strips, make them 6 mm smaller (this is necessary so that the door opens easily and does not rub against the opening);
• We prepare the vertical strips, removing 3 mm from each side. They must dock with horizontal bars;
• Using self-tapping screws we assemble wooden frame. During the assembly process, we check the correctness of the angles with a square, they must correspond to 90°;
• To prevent the mosquito net from sagging, we measure two transverse slats and install them in the door parallel in the same plane with the same pitch inside the structure;
• We install the finished door frame in the doorway, provide its temporary fastening with wood chips, while maintaining the uniformity of the existing gaps. To exclude unscheduled repairs, we fix the joints of the beams with corners for reliability;
• After making sure that the mosquito door fits under the doorway, we mark the location of the hinges on it, after which you can remove the structure and install the hinges along the marked lines;
• At the final stage, we stretch the mosquito net over the frame, with an allowance of 3 cm outwards, and fix it on the frame with a stapler. We cut off the excess nylon with scissors;
• We install the finished door into the opening.

In the same way you can make a mosquito net using magnets. balcony door.

Features of restoration of mosquito nets

Repairing a mosquito-proof structure for a window involves several stages of action:

• Removing the structure from the brackets, cleaning from dust and dirt;
• Removing damaged nylon from the frame;
• Installing a new mosquito net in the frame.

Before repairs are made and the damaged structural element is replaced with a new one, it is worth paying attention to how the material to be removed is fixed to the frame.

Along the perimeter of the profile there are grooves into which the edges of the mosquito cloth are placed. There are handles parallel to each other on both sides of the structure.

All this is secured around the perimeter with a sealing cord. After the seal is carefully removed, the holders and mesh can be easily removed.

Repairs should be carried out carefully and remember that you have to work with a fragile structure. Special attention should be paid to the handles so as not to damage them.

Replacing nylon is carried out by taking measurements from the old mesh, after which the required segment of material is cut off.

The new mosquito net is carefully pressed into the groove metal-plastic frame, fasten with a silicone or rubber cord. Excess nylon material is cut off.

The repair is complete, the structure can be installed in its original location.

The weak point of a mosquito net for a window is the handles (holders) of the structure with which the net is installed.

Replacing the handle involves purchasing accessories and removing the sealing cord from the frame.

Step-by-step instructions on how to repair or replace a handle:

• Pry the rubber band from the corner of the frame, remove it from the groove and guide it to the place where the handle is installed (including the installation area);
• We remove the handle. In order for the holder to come out of the groove, it must be slightly pulled towards the corner;
• We install new handles in its place, lightly pressing on top. A characteristic click will indicate that the handle installation was successful;
• We place a sealing cord in the groove of the frame. In the area where the handle is replaced, the seal may be dented. To reduce this, you need to lather it - then it can easily return to the groove.

As you can see, repairing a mosquito net for a window or balcony door is a simple process and can be done in a matter of hours.

Annoying insects make it difficult to live and sleep peacefully at night during the warm season. They fly into the house through open windows. Despite the presence large quantity special sprays and electric mosquito catchers, only a mosquito net can significantly reduce the number of insects. Today, when replacing windows, you can additionally order this element, which costs money. How to solve the problem on a budget? In fact, everything is very simple, since a mosquito net can be assembled with your own hands very quickly from available materials.

Safety nets

Before you go to the hardware store for everything necessary components, you should decide on the type of mesh. They all differ in different parameters:

1. By type of fastening: hooks, Velcro, pins and Z-shaped brackets.
2. By type of opening: stationary, removable, sliding and roller.
3. According to the presence of a frame: framed and frameless.
4. Attachment location: internal and external.

Each of the listed types has its own advantages and features, but also disadvantages. All this is important to take into account in order to do right choice and don't waste your money. Special attention is given to the method of fastening, so let’s figure it out: what are the pros and cons?

1. The frame is very rigid, because it is made of metal with a mesh fabric. Can be installed on both plastic and wooden windows from any side.
2. The sliding mount is only suitable for aluminum windows, since sliding sashes will be used.
3. Magnetic mosquito net is very current option for those who want to quickly get rid of insects. It is attached to both windows and doors. In the latter case, you don’t have to worry about cross-country ability, since the curtains easily open and close instantly.
4. Rolled mesh will allow you to conduct effective fight with mosquitoes. The material is easily rolled up and unfolded from a cassette placed above the window.
5. Simple Velcro is also easy to attach and remove. In this case, the mesh can be washed in the washing machine at any time.

Mosquito nets are installed not only on windows, but also on doors, since mosquitoes and midges also penetrate through them.

Selecting a canvas

The main element of any mosquito net is the canvas. You can buy it at any hardware store by the meter or in a roll (about 30 m). If you only need to make a couple of grids, then it is better not to spend money and buy the required number of meters. For a larger number of protective nets, it is worth comparing prices: they may differ per square and per linear meter.

If we talk about quality, it is important to take into account several parameters:

• cell size;
• thickness of the canvas;
• material type;
• strength.

To create an anti-cat mesh, the strength parameter is very important, since it must withstand all “attacks” of domestic animals. The most ideal option For this purpose, polyester with special impregnation will be used. Additional fasteners are also required. It is especially important to install such mosquito nets on the balcony.

When determining the mesh size, you should take into account the size of the insects in the area from which additional protection is required. Minimum size cross-section is 0.25×1 mm. Such a net can become a reliable protector not only from mosquitoes and flies, but even from sand, poplar fluff and dust. To protect windows and the room from rain, experts recommend a section of 1×1 mm.

Having decided on the materials and made the necessary purchases, you can begin production. How to make a mosquito net for a framed or frameless window yourself will be discussed below. The protection will be the same functional as from production.

The quality of the protective mesh will be determined by the material from which it is made. IN Lately The most popular is fiberglass with a polymer coating.

Manufacturing of frameless mesh

This is the simplest and a budget option, which will allow you to make a removable mosquito net for little money. The easiest way to make the protection stationary is to simply glue the canvas to the window frame. To make it better fixed at the edges, sew a strip of material with high properties adhesion. When it comes to wooden windows, then ordinary push pins can serve as additional fasteners. There is one significant drawback here - such a mesh cannot be removed for washing.

It's better to put in a little more funds and efforts to get universal protection. We are talking about a mesh with Velcro. To make it yourself, you will need the following materials:

• anti-mosquito material according to the size of the window;
• Velcro tape (burdock - one side with pile, the other with hooks);
• construction adhesive.

Measurements are taken along the inner (opening) part of the window with a margin of 1 cm on each side. This size is necessary to fix the future mosquito net. One part of the adhesive tape is secured around the perimeter of the window using construction adhesive (for example, Titan) or simple double sided tape. The second is sewn along the entire perimeter of the mesh. When everything is ready and the glue has completely dried, you can fix the protective sheet.

The entire work process takes a maximum of 2 hours, and as a result everyone receives reliable protection from insects.

Before gluing the Velcro to the plastic, it should be thoroughly washed and degreased with alcohol.

Manufacturing of frame type mesh

Unlike the previous method, it is somewhat more complicated, but still anyone can handle it. It should be noted that this option is also suitable for making a mosquito net for the door. So, to install the frame with your own hands you will need the following components:

• cable channel rectangular section 15×10 cm (the length is determined independently based on the external parameters of the frame where the frame will be fixed);
• metal corners 10 mm – 4 pcs.;
• blind rivets – 16 pcs.;
• thin nylon mesh;
• construction adhesive.

Tools:

• whetstone;
• pencil;
• scissors;
• roulette.

Let's move on to the construction of the structure:

1. We take measurements of the outside of the window opening. Based on the data obtained, a frame will be made.
2. Mark the length and width on the plastic box.
3. Using a knife, cut the vertical and horizontal parts at an angle of 45°. The cut areas are carefully polished with a sharpening stone.
4. We assemble the structure: we fix the corners with special connecting rods metal corners with rivets (nuts and screws will also work).
5. We apply a mosquito net with an allowance of 2 cm on each side.
6. In the upper part we clamp the canvas with the cover of the plastic cable channel. During the snapping process, we change the long and short sides. For reliability, we glue some places with glue.
7. We cut off the excess fabric with scissors.

The finished mosquito net is installed in the window opening using Z-shaped brackets.

And this is how a mesh is assembled from a special profile:

Restoration of mosquito nets

No less important process is restoration, which includes the following main stages:

• Removing the frame from the brackets.
• Cleaning from dust and dirt.
• Removing damaged nylon.
• Installation of the repaired mesh in the window opening.

Before replacing any element in the structure, you need to pay attention to how it is fixed and whether it can be removed. Most of the elements on the mosquito net from the manufacturer are fixed with a special sealing cord. If you carefully remove it, the holders can be easily removed.

All renovation work carried out very carefully. It is important to remember that you are working with a fragile structure.

As you can see, in order to make a mosquito net with your own hands, you will have to spend 2 or even 3 times less than when ordering a similar design from the manufacturer. In addition, the installation process is quite simple and does not require special knowledge and equipment.

See below for instructions on how to make a mosquito net for plastic windows:

You can do without making a frame if you proceed like this:

With the arrival of warmer weather, hordes of insects come back to life and you can’t live without mosquito nets. Only they are able to protect the premises from the ubiquitous insects. And then some copies manage to leak somewhere. But since the nets are for some reason very short-lived, they have to be replaced or repaired. You won’t call a company representative every time and pay pretty decent money for a job that only takes a couple of tens of minutes. That’s why they try to make/repair/install a mosquito net with their own hands.

Types of mosquito nets

• Frame. This is a frame made of metal-plastic profile, on which a mesh is stretched. The mesh is attached to the frame using special fasteners: Z-shaped brackets or plungers. This design is the most common, since at a low price it protects well from insects. The cost of producing a mesh is from 500 rubles per square meter.
• Rolled. Arranged by type roller blinds or blinds. A roll of mesh is attached to the top of the window. By pulling the edge, the mesh is lowered and fixed. When released from the latch, it rises up. Great device, but the price is from 5.5 thousand rubles per square.

  

  Rolled mesh - good, but expensive

• Swing nets. The mesh is stretched on the frame, but the frame is reinforced, with a larger cross-section than a frame mosquito net. It is most often installed on doors - balcony or entrance, but can also be installed on windows. To the door or window block fastens using regular hinges. To prevent it from opening due to gusts of wind, magnets are built into it. The estimated cost of this type of mesh is about 2 thousand rubles. per square.

  

• Sliding. These are meshes specifically for sliding window systems. They also have a frame on which the mesh is stretched. BUT this frame moves along special guides that are screwed on from the outside. This way it is possible to move the mesh to the place where the sash is open.

  

  Sliding - aluminum windows based on the same system

• Pleated. The method of action is similar to the roll one, but it is collected not upward, but to the side. There are two guides - top and bottom, along which the mesh, which folds into an accordion, moves on wheels.

  

  Pleated mosquito net - original and not cheap

As you can see, there are many types. Nevertheless, in 90% of cases frame structures are installed. At a low price, they create a completely normal level of comfort.

Types of fastening frame mesh

Most often, it is frame mosquito nets that are installed. There are two ways to attach them: Z-shaped brackets and rods (plungers).

When mounted on brackets, they are mounted on the street side. In most cases, this is convenient and, if circumstances permit, this installation method is chosen. The dimensions of the mesh must be larger than the light clearance of the window sash: the frame is inserted from the outside.

When using plungers, the mesh is also attached behind the glass, but the clamps themselves (rods) are located on the side of the room. This device is convenient on the first floors: it is impossible to remove the mesh from the outside. When installing a mosquito net on rods, its frame must be equal to the size of the light opening. You can’t do it with millimeter precision, but to ensure there is no gap, a brush is attached around the perimeter. It prevents insects from getting in.

How to measure a window for an order

Quite often, a frame with a mesh is ordered from a company, and it is installed on the windows yourself. When ordering, you will be asked to indicate the dimensions of the light opening. The required measurements are taken with the sash open. You measure the distance from one rubber seal to the other: width and height. Measure in several places, write down with millimeter accuracy. The accuracy determines how well the grids will fit your window.

Watch how to measure windows to order mosquito stacks in the video.

What you need to know

When ordering or purchasing a mesh for a window, you need to pay attention to its characteristics. Firstly, it is available with different cell sizes: from 0.6 mm to 1.2 mm. The smaller the gap, the less likely it is that an insect will “leak through” and the less fluff there will be. But when high density air also flows poorly, which can be critical in southern regions. Because best option somewhere in the middle 0.8-1.mm.

The mesh is also available from different materials:

• Cotton. Cotton thread has high UV resistance. Its fleecy structure increases the “retention” ability: insects do not crawl through such a mesh. But since the fiber is natural, it reacts poorly to moisture, is often affected by mold and rot, and therefore is rarely used.
• Polyester. The most common material. It is quite strong and durable, despite everything it has a low price, but by no means special properties does not possess.
• Nylon. A special anti-allergenic mesh is made from nylon. It is produced using a special technology with complex weaving. Due to this, it even traps dust and pollen. Such nets are often called “anti-dust” or “anti-allergy”.
• Fiberglass. It is considered optimal because it has high transparency: when using such grids, the degree of illumination almost does not change. At the same time, its strength is very high - even comparable to the strength of metal. An anti-cat mosquito net is made from fiberglass, which can withstand the weight of the animal and does not tear under the claws.

If no special properties are needed, choose the usual one - made of polyester. Sometimes they may ask what color mesh is needed. The most invisible to the eye is gray, so that’s what you can order.

How to install a frame mesh on a plastic window

You have received a ready-made mesh. It comes with 4 small Z-brackets (brackets). Please note that they have shelves different sizes: two 4 cm each and two 2.5 cm each. Brackets with large shelves are installed at the top of the frame, with smaller ones at the bottom.

Z-shaped brackets have different shelf lengths

To attach to the frame, each support bracket will need 2 self-tapping screws with a screw, which are also called “seeds”. You will need a marker with a thin lead or a soft pencil. You will need a drill with a 2 mm drill bit and a screwdriver or screwdriver.

On the outside of the window frame we draw a strip 3 cm below the edge. We stand on a small stepladder or on a chair, take the frame with the mesh outside the window, and also lean out halfway. Applying the bottom edge of the frame to the drawn line, mark its top.

You can do without manipulating the frame: you need to accurately measure its height and set this value aside from the line drawn below. From the resulting point we put another 1.8 cm up and here we draw a second line. We will use it to align the fastener shelves.

We take brackets with long walls. We apply it so that the protrusion is on the line. You need to retreat about 10 cm from the edges relative to the light clearance. Mark the points where you will need to make holes. We carry out a similar operation with “short” brackets from below. To control, measure the distance between the marks at the top and bottom. It should be 1.8 cm longer than the length of your frame.If everything is correct, drill holes in the profile (2 mm drill) and install brackets on the “seeds”. Actually, that’s all, we can assume that the mosquito net was installed with your own hands.

Now take the net by the handles, turn it slightly sideways, and take it outside. Insert the upper edge into the upper brackets, align it vertically, lift it all the way, place the edge behind the lower brackets and lower it. The mesh stands supported by brackets.

She stars in reverse order. Take hold of the handles, lift up until it stops, remove the lower edge from the brackets, moving the mesh a little away from you (a couple of centimeters, no more). Then, moving it down a little, you pull it out of the upper brackets.

Installation on corners

There is another type of fastener, similar in principle to “work” with brackets - corners. When installing this type of clamp for a mosquito net, you also need to accurately measure the width. To do this, you will have to find the center of the light opening, from which to set aside half the width of the grid. Interior The corner should correspond to the width of the frame with the mesh with a small gap of 2-3 mm for freedom of fixation.

That is, if there is this type of fastening, they fix the corners and the width should be exactly at the corners. When installing, we leave the same gap of 1.5-1.8 cm in height. It makes it possible to install the frame in the mounts, and is held in place due to the fact that the upper shelves are larger.

Do-it-yourself mosquito net: we assemble it ourselves

As you understand, you can assemble the frame and stretch the mesh yourself. All components can be purchased from companies that sell spare parts for plastic windows. The following components will be needed:

• profile for mesh frame MFP2;
• impost profile (transverse partition with a mesh height of more than 1 m) MFPI and two fastenings for it;
• mesh fabric;
• corners for assembly;
• sealing cord (rubber or even woven);
• handles - 2 pcs;
• self-tapping screws with countersunk head with drill, dimensions 3.9*16 mm;

Frame assembly

The frame consists of two long profile sections and two short ones. They are connected to each other using corners. They can be plastic (cheap but short-lived material) and metal, painted with white or brown paint (to match the profile).

They also often install an impost - a jumper, which is installed approximately in the middle of the long side. It increases the rigidity of the structure and prevents long profiles from “playing”.

The lengths of the profiles must be cut taking into account the fact that they are assembled into corners. Therefore, 20 mm is subtracted from the width and length of the light opening (how to measure as described above) - this is exactly the length that is replaced by the corners.

Saw off two sections of the required length from the profiles. It's better to cut hand saw for metal - you get a more even cut with almost no burrs. It is brought to smoothness with a file or sandpaper. Then on a flat surface - more conveniently on a table, laying the profile with the grooves up, fold the rectangle, insert the corner holders - the grooves are also up. In the photo, the grooves are directed downwards, but this is inconvenient - you then have to turn the frame over.

If the corners and profiles match normally, they should be inserted tightly. Very tight. It won't work to put it in place with your hands. You will have to tamp it down, and in order not to damage the plastic, use a lining - wooden block or a piece of chipboard, as in the photo.

When assembling, also check the corners. They must be strictly 90°, or the frame will be oblique, and there will be cracks into which mosquito flies can crawl. After the rectangle is assembled, we install the impost. We saw it off 2-3 mm shorter than the resulting width of the frame, insert holders on both sides, and secure it to the frame in the groove.

Stretch the mesh

We spread the mesh over the assembled frame. It should be 3-5 cm larger than the frame on each side: this will make it easier to tighten. We take the cord and press it through the mesh into the groove. You can start from one of the corners, or you can from the middle of the short side, alternately moving to the right and then to the left.

The cord goes in quite rigidly; in workshops it is rolled up with a roller; if it is missing, you can use any object with a rounded surface. The handle of a stationery or kitchen knife, screwdriver holder, scissor handle, etc. will do. While straightening the mesh, insert the cord.

Installation of handles

Having reached the installation site of the impost, we install the handles. Usually they are thin, plastic, inserted into a groove under the mesh, then pressed with a cord. There is a second type of handles - they are denser, sometimes with a metal base, screwed onto the profile with self-tapping screws, but after the mesh has been tensioned. If you have a choice, take metal ones or at least plastic ones, but thick ones. The plastic ones are very flimsy and often break.

If during the process the mesh lies crooked, the cord can be pulled out by prying it with a screwdriver or something similar, straightened, and rolled up again. Having finished stretching, check the width and height of the frame at several points. If there are deviations somewhere, it means that the mesh is stretched too tightly in this place. It is loosened by pressing a little with the palm of your hand near the frame. If it is not possible to equalize the width, the cord is hooked and pulled out at some interval. Having equalized the width, holding the mesh, tuck it in again.

If all the dimensions match, you can cut the cord, tuck in the tail, then walk along the profile again, checking that the seal fits evenly. Now the protruding edges can be trimmed. This is usually done using a stationery knife. That's it, the mosquito net has been assembled with your own hands, you can start installing it on the window.

An example of assembly can be seen in the following video. This is an advertising video: the company sells ready-made kits for self-assembly. The process is not detailed enough, but general outline can be considered.

Homemade mosquito nets: saving to the fullest

If you calculate the cost of all spare parts and take into account the time lost on purchasing and assembling them, the benefit is dubious. They still sell components to you at a higher price than to companies. It can only be useful in the sense that after self-assembly you can easily repair it yourself.

However, there are quite a few inexpensive options homemade mosquito nets. They are made using a frameless principle and are mounted directly on the window. There are two ways to install this:

• Velcro is a knitted tape that consists of two parts - a tape with hooks and a counter with a rough surface. The mesh is cut out a little larger than the light opening, the counter part is sewn to the mesh, and the part with hooks is attached to the frame around the perimeter of the window with an adhesive layer.
• On the sealing cord. It is inserted in place of the standard seal. To do this, remove it (pry it up and pull it out), stretch the mesh over the opening, and press the cord into the groove. The principle is the same as when installing a mesh in a frame.

Second way self-made see the video for a budget mosquito net. The idea is great, the costs are minimal.

Replacing handles on a mosquito net

Making a window mosquito net on a frame with your own hands in 150 minutes and 300 rubles.
I wanted to make a grid with my own hands.
This is what happened.

Required materials and approximate prices:
in my case, on a 175*80 cm grid:

Cable channel (15*10mm.) - 4 pcs. dl. 2 meters, (2m=15r.) total: 60r.
- Metal corner - 4 pcs. (I don’t remember the dimensions. It must fit into the cable channel) (1 piece = 14 rubles) total: 56 rubles.
- Blind rivet (4.0*6) - 16 pcs.
- Glue Super Moment Profi-1pc. (bottle*5 g.) total: 80 rub.
- Mosquito net (1m*2m) (preferably thin, it’s easier to work with.
- Leftovers sandpaper or a sharpening stone with a coarse grain.
- Remains of a plastic corner 3*3cm. -20cm.

Tool:
Screwdriver or drill
Drill
Rivet gun
Roulette
Metal cloth
Pencil
Pliers
Miter box

Work order:
We measure the window, saw off the cable channel with a metal blade at an angle of 45* to size and sand the sawed area with sandpaper.

1) We measure the window, saw off the cable channel with a metal blade at an angle of 45* to size and sand the sawed area with sandpaper.
2) We connect the frame blanks and insert them into its corners. corners, after which we drill holes for the rivet in the cable channel.

3) We fasten the corners to the cable channel with a rivet. Be careful! The riveter must be located on the side of the cable channel or the cable channel will burst when riveting.

You will get this design:

4) The most responsible one comes and difficult moment, we need to pull the mesh onto the frame.
We put the mosquito net on the frame so that there is a margin of 2 cm on each side of the frame, and with the help of a second person we begin to stretch the mesh and snap (long side-short-long) the mesh with the upper part of the cable duct (it is important to take out all the slack, but not drag the grid - its appearance on the window will depend on this). After this, we cut off the excess mesh with a blade and “point” glue the mating parts of the cable channel along the entire perimeter of the frame so that during operation the cable channel does not disassemble by itself.
(unfortunately, there were no free hands to take a photo of this operation).

The mosquito net is ready, all that remains is to make the mount and secure it to the window:
Method-1: from a plastic corner 3*3 cm, cut off pieces of 2.5 cm, and measure the “depth” of the step (thickness of the cable channel). Cut off the excess with scissors. Then glue the two corners downsides to each other (whereby one side of the upper fasteners should be twice as long). We attach the resulting “Z” with a self-tapping screw to window frame and insert the mesh, first into the upper fastenings, then into the lower ones, and lower it.

Method 2: from tin or sheet metal cut pieces 1.5*3 cm - 2 pcs. and 1.5*4cm - 2 pcs. we bend them so that we get the letter “Z”, drill a hole in them on one side for a self-tapping screw, then attach them to the window frame as described in method-1.
The simplest and quick way: we drill 4-6 holes in the window frame and our mesh and screw in flat-headed screws!

This grid is located on the second floor window. In the fall I take it down and put it up in the spring. Next season I'm going to wash it, soap solution and a soft clothes brush.
This was a description of the first mosquito net. When making subsequent meshes, I did not make any changes to the process. The production of subsequent meshes takes much less time. To date, 12 similar meshes have been manufactured using this technique.
