what is a retractable screen

  What is a retractable screen?

  A retractable window and door screen is spring loaded and rolls up and out of sight.

  Why would I want a retractable screen?

  Retracting a screen not only enhances your view, it increases the amount of light entering through your window by as much as 25%.

You may not want to obscure the appearance of a beautiful front door but want the ability to open it for ventilation without the annoyance of having bugs get into your house.

Having a screen mounted on the inside of a window during cold weather can cause condensation on the glass. A screen that retracts avoids condensation by allowing more warm air in contact with the glass.

  What is a rollup screen?

  A rollup screen rolls up out of sight without the aid of a spring.

  Do retractable screens have to be removed in the fall and replaced in the spring?

  No. One of the great advantages of Zanzar retractable window and door screens, is that they remain in position all year. No need to take them off and store them in garages or basements where they often get cobwebby and dusty.

  What is meant by the term hidden screen?

  Hidden screen is a term used interchangably with retractable screen. Retractable screens are also often referred to as "invisible screens".

  Do I need to get Zanzar screens professionally installed?

  Zanzar screens are designed to make installation as easy as possible and can be installed by the homeowner or contractor.

  Is it easy to replace the screen if it is damaged?

  The screens are designed to withstand the occasional bump that a person walking into them might cause and if the screen is torn it can be replaced very easily.

  What are the advantages of using Zanzar screens over other screens?

  1. Zanzar manufactures a complete line of screens so almost any requirement can be met.
2. Zanzar screens are more easily installed and are not as likely to require maintenance or adjustments after installation.
