Window Screens June 12, 2022, 11:51:55 am LD gurus, I'm putting some window film on the bathroom window and I can't get the screen out. I've had several rigs with the same screens. I've always just given them a push up and the bottom would pop out but these babies aren't comin' out. I'm afraid I am going to bend the frame if I apply too much force. Anyhow, is there a trick to removing the window screens? Thanks.jor

On the other hand, if a previous owner tried to secure the screen with some kind of adhesive because of broken springs, then that’s going to be another matter.
Re: Window Screens Reply #2 – June 12, 2022, 02:11:34 pm The screen tracks are free and clear and both the window and screen move easily. I guess I'll just have to use more force than I'm comfortable with. Thanks for your reply.jor
Re: Window Screens Reply #3 – June 12, 2022, 02:21:03 pm Hi Jor; My older TK, the screens just cover where the half window slides open. The screens slide out of the track. I'll have to go look at it again on mine. RonB

Re: Window Screens Reply #5 – June 12, 2022, 05:58:05 pm Yes, the bathroom slider screen is smaller and thus has less flex than the larger ones. You may find the cabover screens are tight as well. Glad you got it out ok! 1 Likes
