How do the screen come out?

[Keith3679]

I'm trying to take the screen out to be repaired. Do they just pop out? Don't want to force anything and break it.

What screen are you talking about and in what make and model of RV rig?

Window screen above kitchen sink

You should see a tab or two or a lip on the bottom edge of the screen. Lift on those and the bottom will come out, though it may feel snug when you start.

Might be easier to just replace the screening in place. Get some fiberglass screening (black, gray, white) to match what you have and get a roller tool like this. Both are available at Lowe's, Home Depot, or Amazon.

There are plenty of videos on YouTube on how to do this, and there was a thread on this forum just yesterday with good directions.

On current model RV's in many cases the short answer is... you don't. You can't replace the screen material without removing the screen frame... one side remains hidden behind the glass panel making it impossible. The screen frames are not designed to be removed easily. The inside trim can be removed by removing all the screws around the window, then you may be able to remove the screen frame. The other option, which I can only say is best saved for the larger windows, is to cautiously bow the screen frame where it intersects the glass panels and force the screen frame out of it's track. Extreme care needs to be taken or you will ruin the screen completely. As I said at the beginning this is best reserved for larger windows so that the bowing can be spread over a larger area.
