FAQs
Read answers to frequently asked questions below and call us with any other additional questions you may have. We have live screen experts who can help you find the right product for your needs. You can also visit our showroom in Highlands Ranch, Colorado.
When Should You Replace Screens?
It depends. Fiberglass screens typically need to be replaced every 10 years because they become brittle and can be easily cut or punctured. Security screens, on the other hand, are nearly indestructible and can last for years — and may never need to be replaced, depending on conditions. They can not be cut, punctured, ripped, or dented, and can withstand high-impact force.
What Is The Most Secure Window?
A window with a security screen. Security screens can greatly enhance your home’s window security and window safety because they can not be easily cut, punctured, or dented, and can withstand high-impact force of up to 100 pounds. This means that they can keep out vandals and animal pests, as well as keep your pets and children safe with a screen that can not be pushed out when it is installed correctly.

Designed To Last, No Maintenance
Keep the family safe and intruders out. This security screen is unobtrusive and aesthetically appealing; it can optimize airflow and light, and minimize the intrusion of bugs and airborne debris. Replace your existing window screens with this virtually maintenance-free and pet-proof screen that is harder-working and better-looking than the ordinary typical screen installed in most homes and businesses.
Designed For Child Safety
Ordinary window screens create a false sense of security causing kids and pets to lean against them. Kids are more likely to die or be severely injured from window-related falls than any other kinds of product-related falls. Window safety screens can help keep small children on the safe side of an open window.
Designed For Pets And Animals
Our security screens are animal- and pet-proof screens. They are designed to withstand the most aggressive pets and animals such as dogs, cats, squirrels, raccoons, birds, and much more. No more broken mesh or frames — or pet escapes!
