A screen wicket can be essential for window screens in hopper, casement, and vent-style windows. By the wicket hinging open, it allows for convenient access to window cranks or similar mechanisms while still providing effective insect protection offered by a window screen. Screens of this type are called standoff screens and have also been used as reptile tank covers, terrarium lids, and cricket cages.
