Leaf springs are used to keep window screen frames in place in window openings. Without them, screens are loose and won't stand up to high winds or other inclement weather. At Quality Window Company, we offer both flat leaf springs and slide-in corner springs to suit a variety of installation needs. They're easy to install and will provide years of use. If you're building your own window screen frames, these are a must-have component. For professional screeners, stock up on leaf springs by choosing the larger quantities of 100 and 500 pieces.
Each type of our leaf springs for window screen frames is made of durable metal that will install easily. The flat leaf springs install with two 3/16" holes on 3/8" roll-formed screen frame. You can also drill the same size holes 2 3/16" apart on 7/16" or other sized window screen frame. To make the drilling process easier, use our Screen Frame Punch Tool, which can be found in our Tools section. Unlike the flat leaf springs, the slide-in corner springs require no tools or drilling for installation. These heat-treated string steel options install by slipping into the corners of 5/16" or 7/16" thick window screen frame. These work best with external corners. Beginners will find the slide-in corner springs easier to install on their own. Professional screeners may need these and the flat leaf springs, so its' a good idea to have both types on hand for future projects. The leaf springs for window screen frames are available in quantities of 25, 100, and 500. These bulk boxes save you time and money, especially for professionals needing to restock on springs of each type. For more specific information about these leaf springs, see the detailed images with dimensions on this page.
Leaf springs effectively hold screens tightly in place in the window channel, so high winds, storms, kids, and pets won't be able to easily push them out of window openings.
