Pleated Accordion vs Frame Mosquito Screens: Best Choice for Balconies & Terraces in Batumi, Gonio & Kobuleti

1. Key Differences Between the Two Screen Systems

At Specialist.ge, we manufacture the two proven screen designs suited for coastal Georgia's climate:

1. Pleated Accordion Screens (from 180 ₾/m²)

A Japanese-engineered retractable system where the pleated mesh folds laterally like an accordion into a compact 8 cm side cassette. It travels along an ultra-low 3 mm floor threshold.

• Zero Floor Barrier: The 3 mm profile eliminates tripping hazards and is baby/wheelchair friendly.
• No Swing Arc: Folds sideways without taking up valuable balcony or terrace floor space.
• Spans Up to 3.2 Meters: Perfect for single and double sliding portal doors.
• Winter Storage Built-in: Retracts safely into the aluminum cassette when not in use.

2. Classic Frame Screens (from 80 ₾)

Constructed with rigid 25 mm extruded aluminum profiles and durable fiberglass mesh. Mounts onto window frames with external stainless steel Z-clips without any screws or frame drilling.

• Instant 5-Second Removal: Uses transparent pull handles for quick cleaning under the shower.
• Solid Die-Cast Metal Corners: Never degrade or snap under hot subtropical UV sunlight.
• Universal Fit: Suitable for all standard PVC and aluminum casement windows.
