Cutting the screen

Before purchasing the screen, it is advisable to measure the balcony or fence, so you don't buy unnecessarily more material (or you can return it to us - even up to 100 years later).

In most cases, you will need to shorten or adjust the mat in some way. Ordinary office scissors or a utility knife will do the job. When cutting, it is recommended to use a spirit level or a board so that the cut is completely straight. You can use scissors for straight cuts as well as for cutting arcs or other shapes. Even though the mat is composed (welded) of horizontal and vertical woven strips of artificial rattan 19 mm wide, after cutting the screen does not fray or gradually unravel.

Installing the screen

Now comes the installation of the screen on a railing, fence or balcony. It is ideal to do the installation in warmer weather, as the material becomes more pliable and splits less. The fastening varies depending on the options the surface offers, but the most common way of installation is attaching the mat using cable ties.

On the windward side, place the ties more densely - approx. 15-20 cm apart, on the leeward side a spacing of 30-50 cm between individual ties is sufficient. Because the screen is made up of several woven strips that have small gaps between them, the cable tie can be threaded anywhere across the entire surface of the screen and there is no need to pierce it. If the surface behind the screen is wood or an OSB board, you can use a staple gun or screws and nails for fastening. You can find a detailed guide at this link.

Neighbor's tip: When buying cable ties, try to match the color of the screen and the cable tie as closely as possible for a perfect design. Cable ties can be bought in the traditional black color, as well as in other color variants. Just like with the screen, think in advance about the minimum length of tie you will need (e.g. according to the circumference of the post or railing).

Low-maintenance

The LEGI balcony screen is easy to use and maintain. To clean the screen of ordinary dust, washing with lukewarm water with a bit of dish soap is sufficient, for example Jar. Because the surface of the screen is very realistic, pollen or other impurities may settle between the individual rattan strips. Here, an ordinary dish sponge or brush will serve you best for cleaning. If you have the screen placed in the garden, you can use a hose or pressure washer for rinsing.

Artificial rattan

The screen is made of shape- and color-stable 100% recyclable polyethylene (also known as synthetic rattan, polyrattan or technorattan) using a technology of welding individual fibers, which ensures that the material does not fray when shaped. The material is resistant to UV radiation, frost, mold, dirt and water. It is tensile strong and can be bent and cut into any desired shape. Artificial rattan is a double-sided, easy-to-clean material, suitable for outdoor and indoor use. Unlike natural rattan, artificial rattan does not show the signs of aging, which is most often manifested in natural rattan by peeling and splitting.

Artificial rattan is of course harmless to health, so there is no need to worry about the effects of harmful substances on your health. The material is also fully recyclable, leaving no impact on the environment. Thanks to all these properties, it stands out with a very long lifespan of up to 20 years.

The material allows you to choose from a wide range of color shades of mat, which will stylishly complement your house or garden. You can find the complete range of colored mats in the image below.
