  "description_short": "Flexible magnetic strip sold per metre, and a metre gives you both mating strips: the one that goes on the frame and the self-adhesive one.",
  "description": "What you actually get for a metre\n\nBoth strips.\n\nA magnetic window screen needs two mating halves: one secured to the window frame, and a\nself-adhesive one on the screen side. When you order a metre here, you get a metre of each. That\nis worth stating plainly, because it is what people assume and not always what they get.\n\nWhy anyone buys strip on its own\n\nThree reasons, and they cover almost every order.\n\nThe first is building a screen for an opening that no stock size covers. Buy PVC frame by the\nmetre, a corner piece set, a sheet of mesh and this strip, and you can screen any shape of window.\n\nThe second is splitting. One large magnetic screen cut down makes two or three small ones, which\nis usually the cheapest way to do a whole house, and each new panel needs its own run of strip.\n\nThe third is repair. A magnetic screen that has stopped sitting flush is almost never a failed\nscreen. It is tired or dirty strip, and a few metres fixes it for a fraction of a replacement.\n\nHow much to order\n\nMeasure around the perimeter of the opening. Add a little for cutting waste and for the corners,\nbecause corners eat more than you expect.\n\nThen order that many metres. An offcut in a drawer is a much better outcome than being half a\nmetre short with the old screen already off the window.\n\nFitting it\n\nIt cuts with ordinary scissors. Nothing is drilled and no tools are needed.\n\nThe one thing that decides whether it holds is the frame. Clean off dust and grease, finish with an\nalcohol wipe, and let it dry, because the adhesive gets a single attempt. Work at 18 degrees or\nwarmer in dry air, and if the room is cold, run a hair dryer over the frame first.\n\nPress it down along its whole length and pay particular attention to the corners, which is where an\nunder-pressed strip lifts first.\n\nLiving with it\n\nIt comes away from the frame without leaving a mark, which is the reason a magnetic screen works in\na rented flat at all.\n\nWipe the strip if it collects dust. Grit in a magnetic seam is the usual reason a screen stops\nseating flush, and it is a thirty second job rather than a purchase.",
  "llm_summary": "Magnetic Strip sold per metre for building, extending and repairing magnetic fly screens. The price per metre covers both mating strips: the magnetic strip secured to the window frame and the self-adhesive strip that mates with it. Flexible magnetic strip with a self-adhesive backing that sticks to the window frame without drilling and lifts away again without damaging it, which suits rented homes. Cuts to length with ordinary scissors and needs no tradesman tools. Commonly bought to make several smaller screens out of one larger one, to screen an opening no stock size covers, or to repair a screen that has stopped seating flush. Sold alongside PVC flyscreen frame by the metre, corner piece sets and replacement flyscreen mesh, which together make up a complete screen.",
