DIY magnetic flyscreen for security door

Hi team, 

 

I'm in a rental and I was imagining I could put a flyscreen on our metal security door. I saw some diy packs but they're only for windows. 

 

I was thinking of using 3M magnetic tape on door as it's painted and don't want to damage it. But I'm not sure what the next steps would be. 

 

TIA

Hello @niknak5544 

 

I'm afraid the 3M magnetic tape will not work if your flyscreen is aluminium. I suggest looking at the Pillar 160 x 200cm Black Magnetic Flyscreen Door Curtain and Pillar 2040 x 1000mm Link Screen Pleated Flyscreen Door. My best advice is to speak to your property manager or landlord before making any changes to the house entrance.

 

Let me call on our experienced members @Dave-1, @Nailbag, @AlanM52 and @Noyade for their recommendations. 

 

If you need further assistance, please let us know.

Hi @niknak5544,

 

Please post inside and outside photos of the security door.

While waiting for that I have a plan using this.

 

Cheers
