Glue-on velcro screens: See here: viewtopic.php?f=41&t=16038 He mentions where you can buy them in a response. I make my own myself, you can buy nylon screen for a couple of dollars a metre in the hardware shops on Main St. I just smear some contact cement ($20 a tin) and press it down to the aluminium window frame; leaving one window in a set unscreened so I can open it and push the other windows open or closed. Or you can use double-sided tape, a bit less messy. That lasts for years. When you need to remove or replace them, just pull them off and rub off the glue with some turps. |

it is very detail thank you! I saw some brownish yellow stain on the aluminium frame, I think it is the contact cement left by the former tenant. I will try the hook and loop tape and see if it works |

finally spending a whole day to make some nylon screens with hook and loop tape wondering if I can put something to make the nylon screen stiff but not blocking the holes... |
