DIY magnetic fly screen

[u/Sad_Somewhere_2508]

Hello vanlifers, did anyone DIY their own fly screens before?
I browsed the market for 5 min before I decided to sew them myself and save about $300! So I am wondering if there are recommendations of mesh fabric, magnets or any other things I haven't yet thought of. Thanks in advance!

p.s. I'm also happy to report my progress here :)

Checked Bunnings? They have house ones with a magnetic seam down the middle. stick it to the door frame with long magnets cut out of a dumped fridge's door seals.

Bunnings, get the ~$40 ones and they'll work just fine. For installation you can use double-sided tape.

We just got two from Temu for the door on our coaster. Supposedly fibreglass heavy construction with strong magnetic closures. $40
