The Forever Screen

 

End the cycle of constant window screen repair and replacement

The Forever Screen is constructed with a profile that makes it possible to replace existing window screens in a majority of track system windows. Optional additions are available such as hinges, spring latches, single point latches, framing angles and mounting hardware, which can be furnished where required. The Forever Screen is highly versatile, so be sure to use the hardware that best suits your needs. Call Metro Screenworks to see all of the options available!

Never replace your window screens again!  The Forever Screen was designed to stand up to every sort of abuse: 

• Homeowner:  Do you have one or more screens on your house that are constantly being broken and replaced? Whether the abuse is coming from squirrels, pets, or children, the Forever Screen is up to the task. 
• Apartments or Universities:  Do you have a building where you annually have to replace many screens due to tenant abuse? Put an end to this cycle of replacement and repair of window screens.  The Forever Screen is the solution.
• The Forever Screen is built to tolerate abuse from all kinds of critters, such as cats, dogs, squirrels, raccoons, wild birds and more.
• Abuse from tenants, children, and vandals. With proper hardware, the Forever Screen can be installed much like a security screen for even more protection. 
• Takes a beating from the weather elements like hail, high winds, and hot and cold weather extremes. The Forever Screen is also fireproof- meaning that it can prevent hot embers from nearby fires to enter your home, making it ideal for anyone living in areas prone to forest fires. 
• Protect your window glass from stray golf balls, hail storms, wind storms, and other cases of flying debris.   (To use to protect glass, The Forever Screen needs to be installed about 1 inch off glass using aluminum angle or flange.)
• Or as a fireplace screen to protect against flying embers, 

The Forever Screen is maintenance-free, meaning you may never rescreen your windows again. Never have a broken or bent screen frame again! This heavy-duty stainless steel screen mesh (available in .023 & .028 thickness) is not held in with mere rubber spline that can be easily pushed out. The stainless steel screen material is held in place in the pressed area of the screen frame by the design of the aluminum extrusion.

Ordinary window screens create a false sense of security! When installed properly, The Forever Screen can also act as a child safety screen and protect against vandals entering through open windows.
