Eagle Axiom?? Retractable Insect Screens

Anyone ever seen casement windows with insect screens?

I came across these retractable screens but you can really tell what they look like etc.

Any thoughts?

We really need to replace the windows out to our deck but need something with screens as living in BH means mosquito city in summer.

BTW i’ve also found out that Marvin Windows have a casement window with retractable screen, i haven’t seen what these look like either yet though…..

I didn’t have these screens, but I had retractable window and door screens installed when I owned a condo in the Meatpacking district. We had large sliding windows that never came with screens. Ont the first day after taking possession, a pigeon flew in the open window and I immediately called a company to install screens everywhere.   I loved them. They worked beautifully and allowed me to keep my windows open and keep birds and insects out. Several companies also make retractable screen doors fro balconies etc.   Here’s the link to the company’s website. They are a canadian company but if you call them, they should be able to give you a local installer:   http://www.phantomscreens.ca/conduit/window-screens

i haven’t seen any lately, but i have seen some wood ones that have fixed screens which fit in from on the inside.  edit – the windows looked EXACTLY like the axions.     the fixed screen seemed to partially defeat the purpose of the openness of a casement window when closed. That retractable screen looks really cool!    the only thing that has kept me from wooden casement windows is the fact that i will probabally get caught with them open a few times per summer when we have those crazy thunderstorms. [mad dash throughout the house to close windows….]  i always wondered how the wooden inside half of the window would hold up if you got them wet a dozen times or so in a five year period.     but i absolutely LOVE that retractable screen.

I was interested in seeing what you’re talking about but can’t make the  link work.
