Flippin expensive. I bought cheapo B&M patio door screen x2 cost well under a tenner. Joined a single to the double by reversing the magnetic clasps so they all faced the same way. Worked a treat on a months tour around France last summer. Used Velcro but not great, so don’t see why I can’t stuff the top and sides under the rubber seals as shown in the vid.
I do see an issue with water from the outside (door jam) to wick through the fabric underneath the seal into the interior of the van if it rains beyond a small drizzle. You might be able to solve that by getting more of those metal clips, remove the whole seal, stretch the fabric in there square and reasonably tight using about 2 dozen of the clips, then trimming away the excess fabric, melting the edges with a little torch to prevent fraying and then put up the door seal again... If the fabric is not allowed to protrude beyond the "grippy" bit of the door seal rubber it can't wick any water to the interior... I think 350 sterlings is quite the investment for what it is... but hey, you got your issue with the local wildlife solved...
Ahh no worries mate, they are popular.. its definitely worth getting in touch with them as they can put you on the pre-order list (that's what they did with me). Either their website, instagram or Facebook 👍🏻
Not at all dude, it's all good. The only minor issue I've found is when it's unzipped and rolled up the edge near the front sometimes gets caught in the door 😅 but I think it isn't helped by my kitchen being where it is. Cheers man 🤙🏻

Excellent 👏👏👏...been looking for one like this👍
I fitted mine without the clips. If you need to adjust the clip will rip the fabric when removed . Fit from outside with an extra pair of hands easy!
Thanks Vaughan 👍🏻 I don't think I needed the clips at all and I certainly wish I had a spare pair of hands 😅 great bit of kit though 🔥
Hi, if you still want your van painted, try Richard from Beyond the van . I believe he still has a mobile spry booth 👍
Cheers mate 👊🏻 just googled him.. I'll give him a shout 🤘🏻
“Passion Wagon” 😂😂😂
🤣🤣 wondered how many people would notice that 😅
Thank you for this :)
No problem Tana 😊
Did rain water find a way through the material you tucked in the door seal?
Great. Thanks. Unfortunately, they seem out of stock for all of the Sprinter screens !! ☹

cant the midgies still get in from under the bottom as thats not sealed up?
To be fair there is hardly a gap and I've had no issues with midgies getting in when it's closed 👌🏻
100% getting one of these , we need one cos them flys eat emma alive
Well worth it dude 😉🤘🏻
Ah haaa!!! So this is the screen ha ha hee hee!!
Tidy job dude, do you get any water coming through between seal?
Not at all dude, it's all good. The only minor issue I've found is when it's unzipped and rolled up the edge near the front sometimes gets caught in the door 😅 but I think it isn't helped by my kitchen being where it is.
Cheers man 🤙🏻
HOW MUCH ??
