Thanks Bill! I’m about to replace the screen in my door. Funny story I had to take the handle off to get the guard off and locked myself out of the house when the rod came out 😂 thankfully I watched Mcgyver as a child and the stake from a solar light opened it right back up! Great videos, well explained!

THANKS BILL!! My cat just ripped the screen riiiiiight down trying to catch a fly and this is the easiest tutorial Ive found so I can fix it myself 😅

[@Scarlett.R]

That looks so easy! Thanks for showing how it’s done. I ended up buying a crimsafe door because I had someone tampering with it… otherwise I would have just replaced the mesh of my security door

I was using a screw driver instead of a roller to put the spline in all the way around like a moron. Went to bunnings to grab a roller, life saver mate thanks

[@jeffreyb3238]

Excellent video, Bill. I will be making my own flyscreen and homemade sill sections (!!) very soon. I changed the mesh on my flyscreen door and it was a nightmare. Being a total beginner DIY-er, I used the stronger aluminium mesh, not fibreglass as per your video. Warning to all!! This seemed industrial and I had to exert great pressure on the roller to apply it. Too rigid. Ended up with a puncture, threw my hands in the air, said many choice words and went back to the big B to swap with fibreglass. They actually gave me a refund. Bill, would be great if you could please explain the pros, cons and uses of each type of mesh in any future videos. Thanks.

Thanks for this video. I am going to have to replace my screen doors in my renal because I have cats and, well, you know, cat claws are sharp! This was extremely helpful as it will be cheaper to replace them myself when I decide to vacate in future. Thanks bill :-) have subscribed as I’m keen to check out your other how to videos 😀👍

Little dog and need to replace fly wire. The fly screen doesn’t have a metal mesh . Would you be able to show me how to install the metal mesh please ?

Thanks for such a great tutorial. I’ll be going to the hardware store this weekend and attempting this myself.

Is it possible to remove the crisscross bars from these? Current house has this pattern and they took the screens down prior to us moving in. Don't want to feel like I'm living in a prison but want the screens to open the windows.

[@kallsopp8891]

[@rogerdutton9033]

Thank for your good video. My problem is how to remove the amplimesh security screen from the window frame. I have removed the two screws at the top but I am unable to lift the screen up and free from the bottom track. There at two black plastic extrusion wedges on the LH side that have taken up the lateral slack between the screen and the window frame and these are making it impossible for me to lift the screen up and out of its track. Can you advise me please?

[@AK_7official]

Good, very good.

How do you get the security screen off the window?

Can you do a video on how to make a diamond grill window screen please?

[@jolewington1811]

How about tips to replace with metal wire for mouse proofing? I can’t get the rubber in the groove

[@yarpos]

yep one on metal mesh would be good, much harder to work with and you only get one go as the metal deforms and takes on the channel shape

[@wm5006]

Hey mate, can you show us how to replace the cord lock for a roman blind? And clarify whether you need to take down the whole blind, or whether you can leave the blind up while you swap the old lock with the new?

Great vid bro, real handy!

Thanks - very useful!

Hey bill . My fly screen has not got the grill installed . Is it possible to install a grill ?

[@VickyKumar-gf6rm]

Can You pls let us know how to unscrew the window screen

[@matthewsullivan6515]

Hi bill, loving your videos and your helpful tips on jobs around the house. I've got a bathroom sink where the plug is one of those push down and pop up ones, not the ones where you have the plug completely separate. Anyway when you push down on it to stop the water from going down, it doesn't lock. It stays down and I have to unscrew the plug and use pliers to get the centre bit back up to normal open state. Do you have any ideas on how to fix this. I've tried spraying WD40 but that hasn't helped.

[@billshowto]

Hi Mathew, I’m glad you are enjoying the videos. Usually I would replace the entire mechanism as they are very cheap to buy, but give me a few days and I’ll post a video to show how to do it👍

[@2011musicrocks]

As promised hope this helps kzbin.info/www/bejne/fYnLmYBpoLCcb9E

To be fair putting the screen frame straight on the concrete floor will scratch it to buggery....why not do it on a dust sheet on a bench at waist height??

[@brookecalla8922]

What mesh do I need to buy from bunnings? Haha they all say fly screen for windows - does it matter can I just buy a roll of any fly screen mesh or?

excellent.

[@szorakatenusz7285]

Thanks Bill, you are my lifeline!

[@blakeghilotti538]

How do you put it in?

[@Stephen_Strange]

No Sline-Roller? Hack?( fluted pastry cutter roller?)

[@nonamesnonames]

Thank you. Very helpful. BUT! 3:58. No!!! Bringing the utility knife towards yourself like that is begging for trouble, particularly while not wearing shoes. Looks like a few inches away from a nasty slice to the foot there!

[@pimp1010ful]

yes

I need to change the fly screen of my balcony sliding door but the spline is facing inside, and I don't have any idea how to take out the sliding door🤔 could you please tell me how I can take out the sliding door as well? Great video btw, thank you so much!!

[@billshowto]

Hope this helps 👍 kzbin.info/www/bejne/moiWo3iebp1knbs

[@bizkitboxx]

is it possible to replace the mesh with the door still attached standing up? I'm worried if i take it apart, the screws etc are so old, I may not be able to put the door back up lol

[@billshowto]

Lol , as long as you can access all areas to install the spline and new mesh you can leave it on the tracks👍

[@zacharylyon5231]

thanks bill, great video! If i dont have a spline roller what could i use instead?

[@billshowto]

The back of a butter knife 👍

awesome and thanks for that ....you can't go wrong lol

[@meadowbird]

Question... should the screens be fitted with the grille facing inside the house or outside the house?

[@billshowto]

Grille is on the outside

[@meadowbird]

Billshowto that’s what I thought. Is there a specific reason why? I’m asking because I’m renting a house with every window and door having the grille facing into the house, which I had never seen before.

[@cornernote]

I used the spline and it ended up ripping the screen.

[@cea-jaymales8031]

You cooked it, sounds like you ripped the mesh on the bottom. . . .people remember, always be careful when putting the last run of spline in as you might make the mesh so tight it rips.
