See how Steve Tristan explains how to measure a window screen, while realizing the window frame is damaged. As stated a window screen will not fit in a damaged frame. Learn how to measure a window frame for a new window screen. This method generally works well when the existing window screen is missing.

We did miss one thing on the video....oops. We missed the depth measurement of the frames. Typical window screen frames are 5/16" for vinyl window frames and 3/8" for aluminum window frames. These two frame sizes cover approximately 80% of the windows in California. The remaining 20% can be a mix of a large variety of frames depending on how crazy the window manufacturer was when designing the window.

This video was filmed onsite at an apartment building in Las Vegas, NV.
