A:Â I am uncertain what you mean by the outside... are you speaking of installation or people trying to break in? People wanting in will easily be able to slice through any window screening. If you are asking about installing, you use an installation tool and install the spleen, it will automatically cut the excess screening fabric.

A:Â Of course not; it's plastic screen meant to stop bugs. This is not a security item.

Answer This Question
A: My screened porch is up in the mountains so we don’t have a lot of the same bugs as say the south but we sit out here and we have no problems with no see ums that my husband says is up here. He where’s shorts all day and we are on our porch most of the day with no complaints so I would say yes. The best part is it looks like it isn’t even there!!

Great product!
Purchased this to repair two 6' x 2' panels on my screened porch (squirrels ripped through for some cooling cookies). Was the perfect replacement and saved me $$$ over having it done in a repair shop.

There are many different colors and styles of screen fabric.
My wife and I didn't want dark black and were even thinking about the silver/gray fiberglass fabric but eventually decided on the BetterVue after seeing a video of how it looked.
We were impressed with the product especially how it looks once installed.
While it is black, it doesn't show up as a dark black screen which is common in our neighborhood and isn't what we wanted.
The BetterVue screen was just what we wanted. It is there but doesn't stand out.
I replaced the screen fabric in 11 screens with the BetterVuew fabric.
It installed fairly easily using Phifer spline and their Screen mouse.
I had no issues with tearing during the installation. The key is to use the proper sized spline and tape the frame down while installing the spline.
In my case some screen frames used .140 and some used .125
Overall, I really liked the product. It was easy to cut, installed easily and looks great.

Just what I wanted and was very easy to work with. I used it to screen in my patio area and also used this screen to make a screen door. Fantastic quality and arrived in great condition. Very pleased with the product and would definitely recommend it or buy it again if needed for a future project!

I used this to separate the drainage layer from the substrate for a large reptile enclosure. Does the job perfectly, and for a fraction of the price I’d have paid for the same thing sold in smaller quantities by pet suppliers. Cut easily with scissors, but feels sturdy enough that my tegu shouldn’t be able to dig through. Very pleased with my purchase.

Needed to replace screens on my sunroom. Sand Hill cranes and Turkeys fight with their reflections and leave holes that are unsightly and let bugs in. Many options in screening that I didn't realize but employees in Windows and Doors were mist helpful. I also bought 100ft. of 3/16 cording for installation. I already had the screening tool that makes installation simple. You will need a flat service to give you a good work service. Plywood across 2 saw horses is a good solution. I purchased black fiberglass screening as it is flexible and easy to work with. Use sharp razorblades to remove excess screening to minimize frustration.

This screen lives up to its name! Our customers really like it, and one back porch screening job led to two more. The 96" width reduces framework and increases the view even more.
