There’s nothing like opening your windows and enjoying the breeze on a pleasant day. However, without insect screens, you could find yourself fighting off mosquitoes and other pesky bugs.
Insect screens will make your home more comfortable, but did you know that there are many types of screens to choose from? At Boston Windows, we proudly carry six types of DAKO insect screens. Here’s a closer look at each one.
Framed and Roller DAKO Window Insect Screens
Framed insect screens are made of mesh attached to a frame, while roller insect screens can be pulled down or rolled up (much like roller shades). Since you can choose your frame and net color, DAKO window insect screens can fit into almost any kind of decor.
We offer four types of framed and roller screens.
Framed Window Insect Screens
For framed window insect screens, mesh is stretched across a durable aluminum frame and then mounted in the window. While you may leave these screens up year-round, many people opt to take them down in the cooler months to extend their lifespan.
Roller Insect Screens
If you’re looking for DAKO window insect screens that you can easily open and close, roller screens may be the right choice. These screens can be pulled down to cover your windows and rolled up when they’re not needed.
Roller-Shutter-Mounted Insect Screens
Roller shutters are durable exterior shutters that can roll down over your windows. When you add integrated insect screens to your roller shutters, you can enjoy fresh air and outdoor views while keeping bugs out.
Door Insect Screens
Many balconies don’t come with built-in screen doors, which means that it’s impossible to keep bugs out when you open them for ventilation.
Door insect screens work somewhat similarly to screen doors. Each comes with a handle for easy opening, and the screen is held in place with magnets.
Pleated and Sliding DAKO Window Insect Screens
If you’re looking for something a little different, our pleated and sliding screens might be right for you.
Pleated Insect Screens
For homes with bifold doors or other large openings, pleated insect screens offer an attractive, minimalist way to keep bugs out. Thanks to their accordion-like pleats, these space-saving DAKO window insect screens can easily be folded out of the way when not needed.
Sliding Insect Screens
Instead of swinging open like a typical door, sliding insect screens are designed to slide across the door threshold. We carry a wide range of running rails, which means that you can install a sliding insect screen on almost any type of door.
