Saint-Gobain ADFORS DIY Window Screen Frame Kit - 5/16 inches x 4 feet - White

I've now purchased quite a few of these sets. I'm using them to hold 4 mil and 6 mil clear vinyl on our screened in porch for the winter. These things are working great. The first room I used them on, I used liquid nails to attach them to the wood. It worked great, but by time I got around to the 2nd room, it was pretty chilly out and the liquid nails wouldn't set, so I drilled holes along the sides of these and screwed them into place.. That worked really well. This holds the plastic in place very firmly so we'll have two screened in porches to enjoy this winter. I used frost king clear vinyl and flexible glass vinyl, and using that with the screen frame kits, it created glass like enclosures. My biggest problem with them is that the spline comes inserted in the channels, so you have to pull it out before using it. The spline actually is pretty hard to get out. I used a flat tip screw driver to get the end out of the channel enough that I could pull the rest of it out.. It'd be easier if the spline just came rolled up. I'm hoping that I can just pull the spline out of the channels in the spring, roll up the vinyl and reuse the whole system year after year. I'm also going to try this on a couple of windows in our house that are a bit drafty. I think it'll work well and will be so much better than two sided tape, which leaves an ugly residue year after year.

this is not sturdy, but take your time and don't get the screen tight and will work fine.

I bought this kit about 18 months ago, way past any warranty. It has sat in the shipping box the whole time. I finally got off my duff to assemble it and what do I see? A structurally compromising dent just about in the center of one piece. Hopefully I can work around it. Beyond the dent the kit looks good, with all necessary pieces being present. I do like how the spline is safely installed in the groove of the frame. The corner pieces seem adequate. The kit also includes two black “handles” and two springs. The 48” x 48” lengths should be enough to make a screen for most windows, maybe even two smaller screens. Ie: 2 at 24” x 48”.

I used a craft miter scissors and it worked perfectly to cut the frame. I did have to pry one opening open with a flat head screwdriver because I pushed down too hard. All the pieces fit and my screen is perfect! I also saved $150 on a new screen they wanted at a local DIY place. So pleased that my daughter bought 2 for her house! Very sturdy too...

It does the job just OK. The frame is so flimsy it permanently deforms as you cut it according to their directions. It is still flimsy after assembling into a rectangle because the corner pieces are a loose fit. One piece arrived slightly dented even though it was packaged well. The parts are packaged together using really cheap packing tape. The tape tears into several pieces are you try to remove it. And then it leaves a little residue on the frame material. It wasn't too difficult to get the spline out but it did pull out razor thin hairs off the spline itself. It would have been better to simply include a small spool of spline with the kit. Any tension on the screen causes the entire frame to bend and twist. I had to basically have zero tension on it in order to keep it flat. Overall it is flimsy, but it does the job and all the parts you need are included in the kit. Next time I need to replace a screen frame I won't be ordering this one again.

I have casement windows that never had any screens, and wanted to be able to open the windows without letting the bugs in or the cats out. After deducting 1.5" for corner connectors, I needed 47" sticks for the sides. The package says it contains four 48" pieces. It does not. It contains four 46.5" pieces--which WILL make up to a 48" square screen. Based on what the package said, I thought I could get the 47" I needed, but I couldn't. Fortunately I was able to use these for a different set of slightly smaller windows. They are sturdy, super easy to cut (I used my chop saw--cuts like butter) and assemble. The finished product looks like they came with the windows from the factory. I am very pleased. :-) If you're looking for a way to put screens on the inside of your casement windows--these worked well for me. My windows have a lot of ledges around them--see photo--and I just fit these into one of those ledges. I used the two included springs on the outside edge, and they're holding up to my very curious cats--so far. :-)

I purchased this item to replace a 34" x 35" screen that I had, but was sorely disappointed. The frame stocks had thinner walls than the original and inadequate for anything probably larger than 15" or 20". The spleen that comes with it are precut to the same length as the 4 frame stocks instead of a single long spleen, so you'll have to take each one out of the frame before installing the mesh and they were difficult to remove. After installing the mesh, the frame would not hold up the tension and bow inwards; even though I made sure not to apply too much tension. Completely waste of time cutting the frame stocks to size, taking out the spleen, installing the mesh, then only to find out that this is a piece of garbage. I didn't try to return the item because I already cut it to size and probably wouldn't qualify for a return. Don't waste your time and make the same mistake I did, and go purchase another frame kit that is sturdier.

Easy to put together, but only lasted a year before the corner connector pieces broke and it fell apart. Do you offer replacement corner pieces? Would like some as the straight frame and mesh is still good. Thank you.

Use this to make a lid for my fish tank
