ABSTRACT:
A window-screen combination wherein the screen is concealed when not in use but is readily accessible for servicing or replacement. The window-screen assembly includes a window frame circumscribing a window opening and including a peripheral outer frame portion providing an elongated header recess facing into the opening. The frame also includes a plurality of elongated inner frame members separable from the outer frame portion and disposed along the periphery of the opening. A first of the frame members, a header member, is positioned over the recess so that a passageway remains between the recess and the opening. The other of the frame members, jamb members, extend downwardly from the header member and form opposed vertical guideways adjacent to the window opening and aligned with the passageway. The header member is releasably attached to the outer frame portion, and quick-connect fasteners are located between the outer frame portion and the jamb members and releasably interconnect the jamb members to the outer frame portion; and a screen unit is removably received in the recess and is retained therein by the header member. The screen unit includes a screen aligned with the passageway and is movable through the passageway and within the guideways into screening positions in the window opening and a retracted position out of the opening.
