Wood window screens add an extra dimension to windows. Traditionally painted black, forest green, or another dark accent color, authentic window screens enhance the look of a historic house.
Escape to your own backyard
Many historic buildings no longer have authentic wood window screens. Either the screens were removed due to disrepair, or replacement
windows were installed with modern metal framed screens. This results in a loss of function since the windows are no longer opened
during the most pleasant months as well as a loss of aesthetics since wood window screens add an additional dimension of color and
depth to windows.
Historic Shed Wood Window Screens offer the following:
- Custom made for a perfect fit
- Constructed of naturally rot-resistant Cypress or dense Pine
- Several screening options available including
a heavy duty mesh for added security and durability
- Painted to your color specification
- Mounting hardware included
- Available for all
window types
- We measure, build and install, or will build to your specifications
Wood window screens can hide non-historic replacement windows, restoring the historic look of your home for a fraction of the cost of window replacements. Of course, we still recommend getting good, historically appropriate windows as budget allows to truly enhance your historic home, inside as well as out.
