How do you install a screen door insert?

• <div><p>If your door has interchangeable inserts, you’ll likely want to swap the glass out for a screen during the summer months. The process to do so will vary by door, but you’ll follow these general steps: First, use a flathead screwdriver to pop out the retainer strips—the plastic strips running down both long (and sometimes all four) sides of the door. Then gently pull them out by hand. Carefully remove the glass insert from the door and replace it with the screen. Finally, push the plastic retainer strips back into place, working from top to bottom. </p></div>

Are garage screens worth it?

• <div><p>If you use your garage often, then yes, a garage screen is absolutely worth the investment. Whether you use your garage as a home gym, a workshop, or for some other hobby, there are few things more enjoyable than allowing some fresh air and natural light in without having to worry about bugs. Plus, , in exchange for <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-save-money-garage-insulation.htm">garage insulation</a>, a garage door screen can provide ventilation that might improve the air quality if you’re producing sawdust or using paints, varnishes, or other potential harmful chemicals.</p></div>

Then gently pull them out by hand. Carefully remove the glass insert from the door and replace it with the screen. Finally, push the plastic retainer strips back into place, working from top to bottom. </p></div>

Q: What is the strongest material for window screens?

• <div><p>Pet-resistant, vinyl-coated polyester is one of the strongest window screen materials available, with some manufacturers touting a 7x increase in strength compared to standard fiberglass screens. Stainless steel security screens are also extremely strong, but they&rsquo;re not suitable for coastal areas due to the risk of corrosion from salty sea air. If sea air isn&rsquo;t a concern, stainless steel is extremely tough.</p></div>

Q: Are there screens that reduce glare from the sun?

• <div><p>Yes, a variety of screen materials cut out glare from the sun. Solar screen material can block up to 90% of the glare and heat from the sun, saving on cooling costs. It also offers privacy yet unlimited outward visibility. The cost depends on the size of the screen roll, but solar screens cost between <b>$25 and $90 per roll</b>. </p></div>

Q: Do you have to take window screens down to clean them?

• <div><p>No, but removing window screens will achieve a deeper clean. If you aren&rsquo;t sure how to remove your screens, you can still clean them while in your window. You can follow the same cleaning steps, but you may not be able to get into corners or struggle to clean the entire screen if the window is up high.</p></div>
