Pins are not long enough for my screens

A quick learner from Maine says:
The pins are not long enough for my screens on my Peachtree windows and can easily fall out. Are there longer pins available?

I'm afraid not. When faced with this issue in the past, I found that trimming the "collar" of the black tap helped the pin fit. Try that to see if it works.

I have had this problem for at least 10 years and all that time I could have trimmed that collar! Thank you so much for your advice. I trimmed them and now I have my windows open wide letting in a nice breeze! Have an awesome day!
