How to Replace a Window Screen
Replacing a window screen is easy and a total beginner can rescreen and reinstall a window screen in 10 minutes. Follow along with my tutorial and you could save yourself hundreds of dollars swapping your own screens out versus taking them in to the hardware store!
Steps involved:
1. Remove the spline (the nylon cord) from the window screen frame using a screwdriver or other tool. If the spline looks to be in good shape, you can reuse it!
2. Take the old window screen off the frame by pushing on it until it comes off.
3. Roll the new window screen across the frame, leaving at least 2-3 inches on each side. If you don't have at least a couple inches, rolling the new spline is going to end with you having spots where you don't have any screen left! Note: Don't worry about making sure the screen is super tight through this process - it just breaks easier that way.
4. Using your screen tool, use the smooth side to one side of the screen into the groove.
5. Using your screen tool, use the side that forms to the spline (concave side) to force the spline into the groove and then roll the spline into place across the groove along each side, repeating step 5 and 6 for each. Note: GO SLOW the first time you do this and figure out the best method that works for you! If you go to fast, you may break the screen.
7. Using a utility knife, make a 45 degree angle facing AWAY from the center of the screen and cut the excess fiberglass screen material off the frame.
8. Hang it up and give yourself a pat on the back, you did it! See, replacing a window screen is easy. :)
