Insect protection for the sliding door from Dometic
Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxer and Citroen Jumper with high sliding door
Being close to nature has one drawback: insects in your mobile living room and bedroom can be a real nuisance. Which makes it best to take simple precautions and add a custom-fitted fly screen to the entrance. The FlyTec FT200 fly screen from Dometic covers the entrance completely and has a magnetic closure.
This one is for the higher version (1,244 mm x 1,757 mm = Width x Hight) of sliding doors featured by vehicles such as Fiat Ducato X250 / X290 or their similar "brothers" Peugeot Boxer and Citroen Jumper (model series L2H2 to L4H3) as left driven version(driver seat left / sliding door at passenger site), all since construction version July 2006 or younger.
Before you decide to order this insect screen, please check in advance on your vehicle whether the requirements for a successful installation can be met. The above picture # 4 and important information in the opposite tab "Good to know!" offer a good orientation.
If all the requirements are met, the actual assembly is relatively easy. And from this moment on you keep flies, mosquitoes and other animals out of the inside of your vehicle when closed.
Which tools and additional, optional screw material you need for the assembly, we have summarized for you briefly in the following area "Good to know!".

Important instructions!
Please note that there are also low-roof versions of the Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxer and Citroen Jumper (series L1H1 to L2H1 with a sliding door size of "only" 1,075 x 1,485 mm or 1,250 x 1,485 mm (width x height). The insect screen door offered here is too large for these dimensions and cannot be adjusted accordingly (for example, shortened in height).
The installation opening must not be reduced by attached strips, covers, built-in components or similar. It should have a minimum size of 1,244 x 1,757 mm (width x height). See also image #4 above (diagram labeled "X" and "Y").
There must be a gap of at least 40 mm between the rear, vertical sliding door seal and any built-in furniture in order to be able to install the insect screen. See image #4 above (Detail diagram small circle).
There must be a clearance of 18 mm between the outer edge of the body floor and any built-in cupboards (e.g. a kitchen unit). See image #4 above (detail diagram large circle).
The insect screen should be screwed to the body panel at the top. Screwing to the paneling or interior fittings may not hold sufficiently! On the other hand, screwing to the interior fittings at the bottom is usually unproblematic. In all areas where screwing is carried out, it is generally necessary to check beforehand that there are no cables, lines and/or other components, especially those that are not visible.
Tools & optional screws required for assembly:
- a hand riveter for aluminum rivets up to at least 4 mm Ø
- a screwdriver with a smaller, narrow slot, as well as
- optional/on-site screws (depending on the nature of metal, wood, etc.)
- 5 countersunk head screws Ø 4 mm for the floor tread
- 4 countersunk head screws Ø 4 mm for the upper guide rail
- and the tool required for this depending on the head design (slotted, Phillips or Torx)
Please select the length of the optional/on-site countersunk head screws to be used according to the existing conditions, so that they are not used to screw through the outer sheet or concealed cables or hoses, for example.
Since a hand riveter is rarely part of the home tool kit, we offer one in two different versions (only for aluminium rivets or for both aluminium and steel rivets) so that you can add it directly to your shopping cart if necessary.
