# Kitchen Pleated Insect Screen

Kitchen pleated insect screen: sliding folding mesh on the balcony door; ventilation and pest barrier work during cooking.

## Kitchen Analysis

The kitchen-balcony door is the ventilation line during cooking: while the door is open steam goes out, the fly wants in. The pleated screen closes this line with [its folding mesh](https://www.fenetresystems.com/en/pleated-insect-screen-systems/) — the steam goes out, the pest stays. The sliding model travels on the bottom rail; in kitchen traffic the threshold-free rail does not trip.

### Ventilation

Cooking steam leaves through the door, the fly does not enter.

### Passage

The threshold-free rail does not trip when passing with a plate in hand.

### Cleaning

The folding mesh withstands kitchen dust.
