The temperature has risen recently and mosquitoes have become more active. It is the season when mosquitoes are rampant again. Homeowners who are planning to renovate their homes, are your screen windows ready?

Screens are very important for windows. Residents on lower floors are prone to snakes, insects, rats and ants, so a screen to prevent theft and mosquitoes is essential. Residents on higher floors worry that ordinary screens are not strong enough and that children and pets may fall through them easily...

In recent years, more and more owners have chosen thermally-insulated aluminum doors and windows with integrated diamond mesh window screens when renovating their homes .

Why are the insulated windows with integrated diamond mesh screens so popular?

① Safety protection: The diamond mesh screen is strong and has the properties of anti-pry, anti-shear and anti-impact, which can prevent external damage, play an anti-theft role, and prevent the invasion of rats, snakes, flies, mosquitoes, etc.;　

② Prevent children from falling from buildings: Ordinary screens are not strong enough, and there are concerns about safety on high floors; the diamond mesh has super impact resistance, and when combined with a child safety lock, it can effectively prevent children and pets playing in the room from accidentally falling from high altitudes.

③Invisible and transparent: Many people may wonder whether the diamond mesh will affect indoor lighting?

In fact, the highly transparent diamond mesh screen does not have a sense of obstruction, occlusion, dizziness or oppression, and the room remains bright and natural at all times. From the inside to the outside, it is like a layer of colored glass, but from the outside to the inside, it is blurry, and the privacy is very good.

④Easy to open and easy to escape: Diamond mesh can replace traditional fixed guardrails, so that family members can quickly escape from the scene when a fire or other crisis occurs;

⑤Easy to care: The surface of the diamond mesh is nickel-plated, which is not easy to accumulate dust and is very easy to clean. Just wipe it lightly and it will be as bright and clean as new.

⑥Resist UV rays: The high-quality stainless steel diamond mesh is treated with electrophoretic paint, so it is not afraid of moisture, strong sunlight, or other harsh conditions. It can also resist up to 30% of UV rays, allowing you to enjoy the sun while avoiding UV damage to your skin;

⑦Long service life: Diamond mesh is made of high-strength stainless steel wire, with fine mesh, strong and tough, and electrostatic spraying on the surface. Anti-oxidation, anti-corrosion, no rust, service life of more than 30 years; compared with the life of ordinary screens of only a few years, it is really once and for all~

However, when you buy diamond mesh screens or windows with integrated screens, you must choose carefully and don’t be easily misled by the merchant’s words “my materials are all stainless steel”. There are many pitfalls in diamond mesh screens!

So how should you choose diamond mesh screens for home use?

① Look at the material: That's right! Diamond mesh screens also depend on the material! Generally divided into 201, 202, 301, 304 and other materials, so don't be misled by the merchant's words "my materials are all stainless steel". The same stainless steel, 201 and 304 (these two are more common) will have a big difference in cost. 201 is easy to rust and its strength is not as good as 304. You must look for 304 stainless steel for home diamond mesh screens ~

② Look at the style: According to the different opening methods and application window types, diamond mesh screens can generally be divided into push-pull diamond mesh screens (applicable to push-pull windows), casement diamond mesh screens (applicable to casement windows), three-way diamond mesh screens (with more prominent handles, often used for outward-opening windows), inward-opening detachable diamond mesh screens (applicable to double inward-opening system windows), etc.

③Ask about the mesh number and wire diameter of the diamond mesh: the mesh number of the diamond mesh on the market is generally divided into 10 mesh (wire diameter 1.0mm), 11 mesh (wire diameter 0.8mm), 12 mesh (wire diameter 0.7mm) and 14 mesh (wire diameter 0.6mm). The bigger the two numbers, the better (the larger the mesh number, the better the mosquito prevention effect, and the thicker the wire diameter, the better the anti-theft effect).

④Ask about the wall thickness of the outer frame aluminum profile: it must comply with the national standard~

⑤ Check the hardware: Because the diamond mesh is for anti-theft purposes, hardware is particularly important. Check whether the hardware brand used is known to you (most of the well-used ones are some well-known domestic and foreign brands). Check the locking points. Those with two or three locking points are much more reliable than those with only one.

⑥ Check the production: whether the gaps at the joints are big, whether the corners are curled, whether there are many scratches on the screen as a whole, whether there are burrs, etc.
