snap buttons

Question

Do you have these "snap buttons"?
I do not think that is what they are actually called though.
They install into "inside casement" window screens. They snap behind a lip to hold the screen into the frame.

Please advise.

Thank you,
Jason

We sell a few different screen frame springs, which you can see here, but none appear to match this design. These are also often used on older windows, while your screen insert looks to be more modern. Or, at the very least, maybe it's just in good condition. Either way, I don't believe any of these springs in our inventory will work for you.

One possible alternative that you could consider is a new "slip on" type screen clip, like our 70-212 or 70-176. These serve the same function in that they keep the screen insert in the window. The screen frame slips into the clip, which then braces it in the window frame. I find these to be very versatile (and inexpensive) and have successfully used them on a wide range of different windows.

Look them over and see what you think! I can't guarantee they'll work in your application, but I think they're well worth considering.
