A screenlet comprising a frame; a flexible flap secured on one edge thereof to the frame; and an arrangement for securing the frame over an aperture in a screen or window. In a specific embodiment, the flap is made of a flexible material (e.g. rubber) designed to cover the aperture when the screenlet is in use. The aperture allows for a power cord or hose to be passed through the screen when the screenlet is in an open position and for the screen to be secured against insects and other pests when the screenlet is in use or closed. Several arrangements are disclosed for securing the flap to the frame including fastener, hook and loop, magnetic and adhesive embodiments.

A retractable, flexible-panel door is mountable to a door frame attached to a building and includes a first side rail, a second side rail, a top rail mountable to and between the first and second side rails, a bottom rail mountable to and between the first and second side rails, a handle coupled to and between the top and bottom rails, a flexible panel extending between the handle and one of the first and second side rails, and at least one biasing member carried by at least one of the first side rail, the second side rail, the top rail and the bottom rail to apply a force to draw the handle toward the one of the first and second side rails, wherein the top and bottom rails are each expandable in length to accommodate mounting of the retractable, flexible panel door to door frames of different widths.

A safety screen has four frame portions joined together to form a fall resistant window screen to prevent accidental egress from a window or door. Each frame portion has an upper frame portion and a lower frame portion integrally formed out of aluminum. A hinge channel runs longitudinally along a top portion of the upper frame portion and allows the upper frame portion to rotate around an integrally formed pivot slot that is longitudinally disposed at the vertex between the upper and lower frame portions. A U-shaped spline track may have a locking tab that snaps and locks within a frame hook portion that is located on many window and door frame extrusions. A screen is frictionally held in place when the upper frame is rotated and compressed against the lower frame. Each frame is mitered and welded together to form the safety screen.

A screen repair system. The screen repair system includes a screen mesh. The screen repair system also includes a laminate, wherein the laminate is located on the screen mesh and configured to secure the screen mesh to an existing screen.

A protector screen for use against arthropods, includes, a sheet having a core made from glass or a plastic material, which is at least partially transparent, and comprising a plurality of ventilation holes, each of said ventilation holes being designed to prevent arthropods from passing therethrough, at least a portion of each ventilation hole being closed by a lateral wall or by contiguous lateral walls forming a single piece that is open at the ends thereof, and the ventilation holes being designed such that a gaseous fluid, such as air, can pass through the screen, while optimising light transmission and optionally cooling the fluid passing through the screen.

Screen material with improved visibility for use as an insect screen. The screen material is formed of a web of polymer coated threads having a denier of 190 to 360, wherein the polymer coated threads comprise 20-30 wt. % polyester thread core and 70-80 wt. % PVC coating.

A window screen that allows for the easy fix of a torn screen. The screen is similar to contemporary window screens. However, this screen contains a grid of squares that can be between 44 inches and 88 inches in size. The border of each square is a solid fiberglass material which can be 0.5 to 1.0 inch in width. Inside of each square is standard window screen mesh. In the event of a tear, the mesh within the borders of the squares can be cut out. Then, a replacement patch which is the same shape of the removed area can be adhered in place. The patch should be cut so that it contains the surrounding fiberglass border. The border of the patch will be adhered to the window screen so that the borders of the patch overlap the borders on the screen making for a seamless repair.

An insect screen including: a frame, wherein the frame has a flexible response when a pressure is applied to the frame and maintains a rigid shape when secured in a building opening; and an open mesh substrate attached to the frame, wherein the open mesh substrate comprises a set of first fibers oriented in a first direction of said open mesh substrate, wherein the set of first fibers has a first adhesion strength to the frame; and a set of second fibers oriented in a second direction that is perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the set of second fibers has a second adhesion strength to the frame, wherein the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, wherein the first set of fibers and the second set of fibers are configured to intersect, and wherein the first adhesion strength is greater than the second adhesion strength.

An insect netting for a greenhouse includes a front panel merging into two side panels. The insect netting is pleated having bellows sections. Each bellows section has two parallel side bellows portions and a front bellows portion. Each side bellows portion comprises a first side gauze web and a second side gauze web connected to each other at a longitudinal side thereof, each having a first short side and a second short side. Each of the front bellows portions comprises a first front gauze web and a second front gauze web connected to each other along a longitudinal side thereof. The second short side of the first and second side gauze webs of the side bellows portions is connected to the longitudinal side of the first and second front gauze webs facing towards the hinging axis of the ventilation panel, respectively.
