  1. How to Replace a Window Screens Screen windows may become

    damaged over time, whether the window frames are metal, vinyl or wood, replacing the screen requires only a few tools and replacement parts. To find out more about it, visit this Google page at, https://plus.google.com/108755519750170027826 /about?hl=en.
  2. Replace a Metal or Vinyl Frame Screen  Take the

    window frame down, if possible, and lay it on a flat surface. Use a standard screwdriver to pry the spline, or black rubber seal, up from the frame. The spline holds the screen inside the window frame.
  3.  Roll the new screen over the top of the

    frame. Install the new window screen. Lay the spline out around the window frame groove on top of the screen. Cut any excess screening from the outsides of the spline groove using a utility knife.
  4. Replace a Wooden Window Screen  Remove the wooden window

    frame from the window, if possible. Removing the screen and working on a flat surface will be much easier than attempting to work with the screen still in the window. Take the old screen off the frame.
  5.  Cut a piece of screen to be at least

    1 inch larger than the window frame on all sides. Staple the screen to the window frame, starting at the top edge. Cut away any excess screen using a utility knife. Replace the molding using staples or nails. The molding should cover the rough screen edges.
  6. Different Styles and Options Replacement windows come in many different

    styles and shapes. Choosing the one best suited for your home depends on the architectural style of your home.
