Why choose a Standoff Screen?

A standoff screen is designed to sit slightly away from the window frame. Standoff screens are often used in homes with casement windows, hopper windows, and sliding windows.

Some additional benefits include:

• Improved Airflow – The gap between the screen and the window allows for better airflow and circulation which reduces condensation and ventilation.
• Prevents Sagging Screens – The “standoff” or distance can help prevent sagging, most notably in larger windows.
• Convenience – With the screen being slightly away from the window, it is easier to clean both the screen and the window pane itself.
• Visibility – The “standoff” can provide a clearer view through the window
