How to Choose the Right Screen Frame

Choosing the right screen frame kit starts with checking your existing frame specifications, especially if you're replacing a current setup so you can best match size and style.

• Measure carefully: The first step is to carefully measure the width and height of your window opening to ensure a proper fit.
• Select a frame: Most standard residential windows use 5/16-inch frames. If your window is larger or exposed to strong winds, a sturdier 3/4-inch or 7/16-inch frame might be a better option for additional support. Our durable aluminum frames resist corrosion, warping and fading.
• Screen material: Thicker screens are better suited for areas with high winds or heavy rain and are more durable and pet-friendly. Keep in mind that thicker material may slightly reduce your view outside. Thinner screens offer better visibility but are more delicate.
• Consider removability: How frequently will you be removing the screens? Think about adding window and screen clips to make seasonal removal and cleaning more convenient while extending the life of your screens.
