Small repairs. Better planning.
Measure once.
Buy the right roll.
Turn a batch of window screens into labeled cuts. Compare four roll sizes, see the leftovers and use your local prices to choose what to buy.
Your batch, laid out
Plan the cuts before the cart.
For rectangular, removable window screens. Use outside frame dimensions and the allowance specified for your material.

The measurement that makes the difference
Choose the allowance for your product.
Phifer’s window instructions use ½ inch beyond each frame edge. ADFORS’ window guide uses 2 inches. Both are shown as editable choices so you can follow your material’s instructions and see the effect on a whole batch.
