View Full Version : Screens need securing

I've just built a beautiful home with new windows (of coarse). My problem is that I have two cats that push the screens out! The screens have a total of four push pins with springs on them, that will keep them in place, but fail if they are slightly pushed. They're aluminum. Does anyone know of a way to secure these to the window? Are there any gadgets out there that I can buy?
Any advice would surely be appreciated. I'd hate to drill a hole thru my window jam.
Thx
Jo

Take one of your screens to a local glass shop (be armed with the name of the window mfgr as well!) and see what they can do for you.
