Self Storing Screens for Windows

Self storing window screens are designed to disappear when not in use - just like a window shade. They offer an unobstructed view and allow for full ventilation. When retracted in the overhead housing you will enjoy the additional 20% of light that is admitted into your home without screens. They are long lasting, easy to use, require almost no maintenance, and most of all they are a snap to measure and install.

These screens are custom made to order and will fit almost every style of window available today. They can also be used in porches, boats, mobile homes.....in fact, you are limited only by the maximum available size and your imagination and ingenuity.  They can be mounted interior or exterior as supplied, recessed in prepared openings, or hidden in place with molding. These units must be mounted inside of an opening - they cannot be installed around the face of an opening. For problem free operation, these units must be installed square, plumb, and level.

Units are available with Brite Bronze Wire screen material or Charcoal Fiberglass screen material. Please pay particular attention to the unit you are considering - measuring and installation practices are the same but housing size is different for each style offered.

How to Measure...

Two measurements AND the units mount are all that is required to order these items.  Note that many window frames will vary from side to side (width) and from top to bottom (height).  Measure width (W) in several locations - top, middle and bottom.  Measure the height (H) on the right and left side.  Use the smallest measurements obtained to the nearest 1/16" for each dimension. Screens are manufactured to the supplied dimensions - we will make no alterations to supplied measurements. The size you submit will be the size of the unit you will receive.  (Standard manufacture tolerance is +0" to - 1/16")

Housings measure: 1-7/8" x 1-7/8" for fiberglass units and 2-5/16" W x 2-3/8" H for bronze wire units.  (see cut sheets for more information) The side rails for both units measure 3/4" W x 1" H.  Units are available in standard or reversed mount (see cut sheets for more information)
