How to Measure Screens

Measuring your window screens for ordering replacements can be done in a few easy steps:

1. Measure from Outside Edge to Outside Edge: Measure the width of the screen frame from the outside edge to the outside edge. Measure at the top, middle, and bottom of the frame to ensure accuracy. Do the same for the height of the screen.

2. Determine the Type of Hardware Needed: Look at the existing hardware on your window to determine the type of hardware needed to keep the screen in place. This is important to ensure that the replacement screen will fit properly and securely.

3. Consider Ordering a Slightly Smaller Screen: It is always better to order a screen that is slightly smaller than ordering it too big. This is because screens can still fit if slightly small because of the tension springs or plunger springs, but it is difficult to make a larger screen fit because you may end up bending it and making it non usable.

4. Check with Neighbors: If you do not have existing window screens, see if a neighbor has the same size windows in their apartment, condo, or housing development. Ask if you can measure their screens or try them in your windows to determine the correct size.
