I have made eight of them for my home. My first attempt did have the frames bent on the longer sides, but later on, I added 10mm pinetrim dowel to the structure to increase the strength, and it works perfectly.

All beams are Crooked / Bent on the shelf . You will end up with crooked frames that either have gaps , or won't even fit in, because of the non straight frame beams (wasted effort and money).Poor quality product, incorrectly stocked (vertically stacked) to save shelf space ?!

My DIY flyscreen frame is 84cm x 150cm. The frame material is not strong enough. The fly screen frame bent in the middle of the 150cm sides. The frame ended up measuring 84cm on both end but 83.2cm in the middle. The bent depends on how tight or loose you’re mounting the mesh. Mine was not too tight.

I used this for making secondary glazing; these will combine with 0.1mm vinyl tablecloth to make an effective window screen. Issues reported by other reviewers are valid, but a consequence of transport and storage. A hammer and cold chisel will remedy most such issues. Shorter lengths would be useful, but this would detract from flexibility: no all windows are small... :-)
I buy this because I have to. The colours don’t match typical Australian frames and look silly especially the chocolate which is nothing like our mission brown frames we have everywhere. Whilst not bent all are warped in store so you have to try and straighten them yourself before installing otherwise create gaps for the bugs. Will do the job.
Metal is too thin and bends easily (unlike the previously stocked Rolltrak ones). The profile does not fit the Rolltrak aluminium corner stakes, only the rubbish plastic ones that aren't really strong enough for the intended purpose. Don't buy these until Bunnings restocks the Rolltrak frames (if ever). I would give zero stars if possible - below par.
Obviously, there isn't any other choice than this product in Bunnings, if you want to DIY and customize a flyscreen with white frames. So I had to order some of these products. And I did find some annoying defects from time to time. You possibly will find the spline groove is not even, which will cause the spline line pop out at the too wide section, or sometimes, they are not straight which makes you harder to precisely measure them and cut a perfect 45 degree, or sometimes the channel is too big, too loose for the frame corner kits. Generally, it's ok to use them and tweak a bit, bend a bit or even cut off the crappy section, but just wasting a bit money and time.
I used this product to replace a broken flyscreen frame. The extruded aluminium pillar is definitly much sturdier than the original rolled pillar. I used a rigid wooden mitre box and a bi-metal 32T/inch hacksaw blade to cut the corners (remember measure twice cut once). Used a plastic faced automotive mallet to tap in the aluminium flyscreen corners (be gentle or they will deform and they're keyed, don't put them in the wrong way. There are plastic corners) and to square up the assembled frame (very gently) and 5.7mm ribbed spline to retain the fibreglass screen. Don't stretch the spline (it will shrink and be loose, i pushed it in with my fingers and finished with a roller) or pull the fabric tight when doing the opposite side (must be a tiny bit loose) or u will ... MoreI used this product to replace a broken flyscreen frame.

Also added a lift tab. Very very happy with the finish.
Bought this product to redo the flyscreens on a house I just bought. Worked as described. I'll admit they are not that straight out of the rack, but once you cut them and place the plastic corner pieces in with the flyscreen they look and work fine. Hold them in with the little clips and it flattens them out against the window frame. I did however cut mine on a dropsaw. If you've got one use that....it's much neater. You can use a standard wood cutting blade for this fine aluminium stuff
I bought a lot to make new fly screens for our guest house. I used them before and making fly screens with these is pretty easy.The problem however is that nearly all of them were pretty scratched right at the Bunnings store. This is the case because they are loosely stacked vertically in a box without protecting the sharp ends, so obviously every time somebody takes one out or puts it back in, it scratches the other ones.
