Phantom Screens UK
In the rural Nottinghamshire countryside, a stylish and contemporary new home has been constructed from the ground up. Read the full story of how Phantom Screens played an essential part in future-proofing this stunning property…
This modern home in Nottinghamshire stands alone just outside a rural village, with stunning views of rolling fields. A large self-build project, it was still in its early stages when the owners got in touch with Phantom Screens to explore solutions that would protect their new home from insects and farmland dust.

After a brief phone call, we scheduled a free home survey at a time that was convenient for the customer. Our team then visited the property to take accurate measurements and discuss their needs in detail.
Four Power Screens for insect protection were installed – three to the back of the house on sliding doors facing the garden (all 3m wide x 2.6m high). The fourth automatic insect screen was installed to the entrance of the office (located in the garage). Adding a screen to the home office was but crucial for optimising concentration – with superior temperature control and no irritating flies buzzing around.
All Power Screens were fitted with 18:14 insect protection mesh. This fabric is our standard mesh and is most effective at stopping the bugs while being easy to see through – leaving garden views intact.
The homeowner came to us during the design period meaning there were more installation options.. The modern design of the home demanded the screens be integrated discreetly, so they were recessed into the ceiling, creating a clean finish with the screens disappearing from view when not in use.
Two free hanging gravity drop motorised roller blinds (or Power Blinds for short!) were installed to the sliding doors in the open plan kitchen / living space. These were tailormade in our factory to fit our customers’ exact requirements (2.8m wide x 2.1m high to be precise). Pairing screens and blinds together provided our customer with ultimate control over solar glare and insect ingress.
Perfect for large openings with bifold or sliding doors, automated Power Screens can fit door openings up to 12m wide. Sleek and stylish, it’s no wonder our world-famous Power Screens are popular with celebrities! Learn more about them in our FAQs or by getting in touch with our team of Phantom experts here.
The automated screens and blinds can be operated by wall switch, remote control, and by smart devices through the Somfy app. The ability to deploy the screens and blinds remotely can provide some assurance and extra security – such as when you’re out and want the house to look as though it’s occupied.
In addition to keeping bugs out, screens allow fresh air to circulate through your home, which can help keep it feeling cool and comfortable. This can be especially beneficial during the summer months, when you may be running your air conditioner more often. Using screens can reduce your reliance on cooling, which in turn can save you money on energy bills.
The addition of Power Screens and Power Blinds has completely enhanced our customers’ everyday living and home office working. Though the homeowners hadn’t thought of this solution for previous properties, they say they wish they’d known about them before!

/Zero VOC means no Volatile Organic Compounds – those long-chain hydrocarbons that contribute to interior air pollution and can combine with nitrogen oxides to form ground-level ozone – are released as the finish cures.
A zero-VOC finish is hard to find in the floor coating industry and we had been searching for one for a while. It’s not exactly clear why the floor finishing business is so far behind the paint industry – VOC-free paints have been available in mainstream retail for at least two years.
Flooring finishes seem to rely heavily on those volatile petroleum-distillate-based solvents that keep the solids and resins in solution until applied but evaporate quickly to allow the finish to dry and cure in a reasonable time.
But mineral spirits and petroleum distillates release high levels of VOCs that can cause eye, skin, nose and throat irritation, and they are neurotoxins that may depress or damage the brain and nervous system. Short-term exposure to VOCs can cause dizziness, headache, drowsiness and nausea.

A modern apartment in East London required window fly screens for optimum insect-free ventilation. Discover the full story of this install below…
Set in a high-rise building overlooking Stratford, London, this well-situated apartment greatly appealed to the homeowners when scouring the property market. After moving in, however, there were a growing number of concerns which were negatively affecting their quality of home life.
The first issue was the number of insects that were swarming into their apartment every time they opened the window. With one half of the apartment covered in glass, it meant that sticky summer days would be unbearable without opening the windows for fresh air.
Mosquitoes, flies, wasps and more would enter the apartment, causing irritation, bites, and bringing in harmful bacteria. Adding to this issue was the waterborne insects from the nearby Bow Back Rivers (which connect to the River Lea and River Thames).
When fresh air would enter the apartment, it would be filled with carbon monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, lead, and other harmful pollutants. Though steps are being taken to improve London’s air quality, this kind of pollution is often unavoidable in metropolitan life.
The apartment was also home to cats. The homeowners would worry about their cats’ safety when the windows were left open, especially with them being in a high storey building. There was a glass barrier in front of the windows, but it only reached to about halfway up the window, leaving room for the cats to potentially climb onto.
With concerns mounting up, the homeowners went searching for solutions. Before long they found their answer in Phantom Screens. Having looked through our website and been impressed with our fly screens for windows, they didn’t hesitate to get in touch.
Our customers sent over some images and measurements of their windows. Our team then carefully discussed their requirements and booked in a free home survey at a date and time that was convenient for the customers. We visited the property to get a closer look, take precise measurements, and discuss our array of suitable options at length with the customers. After a few weeks of handcrafting the screens in our factory, we returned to the apartment to install them.
Three standard fly screens for windows were retrofitted. This install was more complicated than usual, as it required us to create a bespoke solution. However, our install team thrive on new challenges and were thrilled to see it take shape.
Additional subframes were manufactured so that the screens could fit in front of the windows and meet the glass barrier in the middle. This acted perfectly as a shield between the cats and the windows.
Manual screens are operated by hand for easy deployment when opening windows. The screens and subframes were colour matched to the existing framework so that they blended in as if they were always part of the design.
The chosen fabric for these screens was our standard insect mesh as it provided the most ventilation and let in the most natural light. The apartment’s views over the Central London skyline, ABBA arena, London stadium and more have been completely retained as our screens are designed to keep the views intact.
Screens can improve the quality of air and general hygiene in your home, as they can filter out some of the dust and bacteria (plus microorganisms carried by insects). The homeowners can now enjoy bug-free ventilation with cleaner air entering the home – keeping the apartment more hygienic and feeling fresh!
Our customers were so thrilled with the result that they left us a glowing Google review – see below.
“We contacted Phantom Screens to add fly screens to our winter garden. We were looking for a bespoke solution that would fit the existing look of the room but also be robust enough to prevent our cat from jumping off the windows when open. We are very happy to say that they delivered on all of these points with full marks.
From the start, they were very professional as they provided us with various options for our slightly odd situation. They then sent an engineer our way to assess the situation in person and provide a more detailed quote. After that, a second visit was arranged to take samples of the colour of the windows, as well as precise measurements to install some supports that were needed to run the guides on the sides of the windows.
On the day of the installation, the two engineers took just shy of three hours to do an impeccable job – they performed the work without any mess and with minor to no disruption to us.
The end result is even better than what we were expecting! The screens look like they were there from the beginning, and they disappear with the rest of the window when they are closed. Even when open, they don’t take too much light away from the room, which is an added bonus. Plus, they feel sturdy enough to keep our cat from jumping off the window. They also went the extra mile by installing a metallic cover at the bottom of the balustrade to cover a gap that our cat would be able to sneak through.
Overall, a very professional and positive experience that’s totally worth the cost (which itself is not exceedingly high either). Highly recommended!”

Home service
Are you looking for cleaning help in or elsewhere in Denmark? At jacobsens-rengøring.dk, we perform private cleaning assistance for private individuals and housing associations at competitive prices. It can either be in the form of daily home Cleaning, or it can be in connection with craftsmen.
If you choose an hourly cleaning appointment, simply let us know how many hours you want the cleaning company to work. This type of agreement is more time-consuming as it is more in-depth. However, it also means that you can prioritize which tasks the cleaning company should take care of according to your own plan. This plan, unlike chord cleaning, may be different from time to time and may also include regular vacuuming or the like.
We also offer private head cleaning Rengøringsfirma where we go in-depth. It can be traditional head cleaning in the spring and fall, but it can also be when you think extra cleaning is needed. It can e.g. be before a major party, or it may be after a craftsman visit. In addition, we perform the main cleaning in eviction apartments for housing associations and so on.
We have many years of experience with all types of cleaning assistance. We have both legs on the ground and meet our customers at eye level. Currently have five employees, all of whom emphasize quality, efficiency and thoroughness. You can order us to come on any of the seven days of the week to suit your wishes and needs.
How to choose the right company for your cleaning
It can seem very borderline to lock another person into your home. While you are not at home or when you are away from your business after closing time. It is always a good idea to be present during the first cleaning – not to monitor. But to give both you and your home Cleaning assistant a clear idea of what your agreement contains. It’s also a way to get to know each other a little. So it’s not a complete stranger who’s in your home or business when you’re away.
When you obtain up to three offers from Denmark, you have the opportunity to agree further when our professional partners have given an answer to your task. It is a good idea to arrange a meeting with them, where you partly go through the various tasks that are desired to be solved, but at the same time also notice if there is chemistry between the cleaning company and yourself.
Next, it must be clear from the agreement who will handle the clean-up in advance. If you manage the clean-up yourself, it is easier for the cleaning help Rengøringshjælp to get to and they can get started faster. You therefore for a cheaper cleaning. Conversely, it is not certain that there is always time or surplus to clean up an entire home, so there needs to be clarity on what to do if that is the case.
It is important to be realistic when it comes to time consumption. It is unrealistic to be able to do a major house major cleanup in two hours. Here we recommend that you use the experience of the cleaning assistants so that you get the most accurate time estimate – that way the cleaning help has time to clean everything with the agreed thoroughness.
The last thing that should be includ in an agreement is what should happen. If all the agreed tasks are not solve. or what happens if the home cleaning help is prevent. That way, you can build a better relationship with your professional cleaning assistant – and thereby get better cleaning.
Cleaning is more important than you might think
Poor cleaning leads to a bad indoor climate. A bad indoor climate can cause headaches, irritation of the eyes and respiratory tract. And if it is dusty, you can develop various allergies. Therefore, a good indoor climate is a good foundation for a good and healthy lifestyle. But we are also aware that there are other priorities in a household. But it should be a high-priority task in the workplace.
Through good cleaning Rengøring , the company ensures the best conditions for its employees. And you can actually reduce the disease frequency. It also provides higher concentration and thus more efficient employees. Most cleaning companies today use environmentally friendly and allergy-friendly cleaning products, but this is not a legal requirement. Therefore, pay attention to which products are use for cleaning.

Our patio redesign started with an elevation change. We removed the existing patio and poured a new concrete patio level with the home’s side entry and the garage, eliminating the stairs. We then applied a stunning overlay on the concrete patio, matching the stone columns and tying the colors into the patio. Raising the patio also means bugs are kept at a greater distance and are less likely to be a source of irritation.
