Windows Screens

Mesh Options

Phantom’s wide range of mesh options help you make any space a more comfortable and attractive living environment. You can choose from mesh types that provide insect protection, natural ventilation, increased privacy, improved daylight, and solar heat control.

The mesh openness factor determines the amount of heat, light, and air that enters a room. A more open fabric allows the breeze and heat to enter the living space, while tighter meshes block more sunlight and keep the space cooler.

Depending on your screening needs, Phantom Screens of Greater Houston will recommend the best mesh choice for your retractable door screens.

These mesh samples are to be used only as a general guide. Please review actual mesh samples for true accuracy.

Insect Mesh
