How to Rescreen a Screen

Do you have outside cats who love to claw at your screen doors and windows? if so then this instructables is for you!

I wanted new screens for a fraction of the cost.

This project took less then 15 minutes!

Step 1: Materials

Available at Lowes or busy beaver charcoal fiberglass screen 36 x 84 (insect screening)

I also used my sewing scissors for a sharp cut.

Step 2: Removing the Old Screen

First remove the screen fabric from the frame by removing the thin rubber piece off the back of the screen.

Step 3: Fitting the New Screen

Next roll out screen over frame to fit the screen properly. I left a small over hang see picture 2

Step 4: Installing the New Screen

The last step is putting the rubber strip back in the screen frame. I uses my scissors to push the strip in snuggly. **This took the longest amount of time.

Step 5: Finished

Finished! Screen is ready to be placed back into the window.
