Does anyone have a temporary solution for screenless windows?

Hi Debra, You can get expandable window screens at Walmart from $5 to $7. They have a couple sizes. Here's a link: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Wood-Frame-Adjustable-Window-Screen-15-x-37/20434386

I needed these as a temp too and they worked out pretty good!

Good luck!

in the meantime, you could buy some of the fabric like screens from a home improvement store and cut them to how you want them. Another solution maybe be something more like the following: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Wood-Frame-Adjustable-Window-Screen-10-x-37/20434385

Did you know that screens are very easy to build? Your building supply stores have screen kits you can cut to custom size. They include track, corners, spline and screen. Usually you will need a hack saw and spline tool. Instructions will be included. For an even cheaper option, you can buy these in bulk.

Most Home Improvement stores have screens you can put under an open window with gliding ("strechable") fitters. Wouldn not do this option if you have cats!

It may not look real good, but get some rolls of screening material. tack it onto one inch boards cut to fit the openings and tack in place, or even just use screening material and tape in place with gorilla tape. Gorilla tape withstands sun, rain, even snow and ice. I used it on the vinyl convertible top of an old car when an icicle fell off the roof and put a hole in it. Duck tape had to be changed sometimes each week. The gorilla tape held for three years through hot humid summer weather, rain, snow, ice, you name it. It was outside 24/7 because we had no garage and it was a daily driven vehicle. I am sure a strip cut a little narrower will even hold screens up for you. It may be a decent temporary solution until you can make or purchase something permanent.

They make this thin wooden molding for screens, get a roll of screening and cut a 1 1/2" larger than the window and put the molding over the edge and nail it in using fine small finish nails. You could also use double sided tape.

As to sliding glass doors, they sell those screen doors at home depot and other home stores, just take your measurements with you and the brand of door if you know.

True Value hardware store here has a little shop in back and will put a screen together for you cheap. Just take the measurements for width and height from track to track.

Thank you Suzette. A very affordable solution! I will check it out.
