What is an Adjustable Window Screen?
RiteScreen’s adjustable window screens are arguably the most versatile window screen replacement on the market. With 3 different dimension options available, the sliding window screens can be placed vertically or horizontally and boast a range of compatible lengths to ensure compatibility in a wide variety of window frames. Adjustable window screens are often used as a temporary, seasonal screen system, with easy installation and removal for year-round customization of your airflow and ventilation. This easy removal can be especially useful in regions with more extreme winters, protecting against the build-up of snow and ice on your window screen frames, as well as any damage falling ice may cause throughout the season.

How do Adjustable Window Screens work?
The adjustable window screens effortlessly slide to expand and retract in the channel of your window frame, providing total ventilation control without a complex installation or removal process. The difference between the retracted and expanded window lengths enables your screens to be compatible with most window frames – as long as they fall within the dimension range. This means they can be used as vertical or horizontal sliding window screen replacements! Once installed, simply slide the screen to expand or retract for complete, year-round ventilation control.
