It started with a call from a mum in Greendale. Her toddler had pushed straight through the old fiberglass mesh on the lounge window. There were mosquitoes in the house, no screen on the window, and she had no idea where to even start looking for someone to fix it. That’s the call we get at least a few times a week – from Borrowdale to Budiriro, from Mabelreign to Msasa. People who just need a screen sorted, quickly, properly, and without being overcharged.
That’s what a proper screen store in Harare should do. Not just sell you mesh by the roll and send you home to figure it out. We measure, cut, fit, repair, and replace – screens on windows, doors, porches, patios, balconies, pool enclosures, and more.

Window Screen Repair Harare
The most common call we get. A torn mesh. A frame that’s bent. A screen that just fell out of the track one rainy afternoon and nobody knows where the corner clips went.
Window screen repair is what we do every single day. We come to you – or you can bring the frame to our store – and we’ll assess what it needs. Sometimes it’s just a new piece of mesh stretched and locked into the existing frame. Sometimes the frame itself is warped and needs to go too. We’ll tell you which, and we won’t push you toward a more expensive fix if a simpler one will work.
We do window screen repair across all Harare suburbs, including Avondale, Highlands, Hatfield, Glen Lorne, Chisipite, and Borrowdale.
Window Screen Mesh Replacement Harare
When the mesh is the problem – torn, rusted, sagging, or full of holes from a pet or a branch – you don’t necessarily need a new frame. Window screen mesh replacement is often all that’s needed.
We stock and cut several types of mesh:
- Standard fibreglass mesh – the most common, affordable, and easy to replace
- Aluminium mesh – stronger and longer-lasting, good for high-traffic windows
- Pet resistant screen mesh – thicker and tougher for homes with dogs or cats
- Solar screen mesh – reduces glare and heat coming through the window
- Fine insect mesh – tighter weave for smaller insects like fungus gnats or midges
We’ll pull out the old spline, clean the channel, cut new mesh to size, and roll it back in properly. Done right, a mesh replacement lasts years.
New Window Screens Harare
If a property doesn’t have screens at all – which is more common than you’d think, especially in older homes around Hatfield, Waterfalls, and Mabelreign – we supply and fit new window screens from scratch.
We measure each opening, fabricate the frame to size, fit the mesh, and install. New window screens can be made in aluminium or fibreglass frame depending on what suits your windows. We match existing colour finishes where possible.
Window Screen Frame Replacement Harare
Sometimes the mesh is fine but the frame is the problem. Bent corners. A rail that snapped. A frame that’s swelled and won’t sit in the track properly. Window screen frame replacement is often cheaper than buying a whole new screen unit.
We carry aluminium frame stock and corner keys in common sizes, and we can cut and assemble a replacement frame to match your original in most cases.
Custom Window Screens Harare
Not every window is a standard size. Harare has a huge range of housing styles – from old colonial homes in Belgravia with unusual timber-framed windows to modern cluster homes in Borrowdale Brook with large aluminium casements. Custom window screens are something we do regularly.
Bring us your measurements or let us come out and measure. We’ll fabricate screens that fit properly, not ones that wobble or fall out every time you open the window.
Adjustable Window Screens Harare
For windows where the size varies slightly or where a removable fit works better, we offer adjustable window screens. These expand to fill the opening without permanent fixing, making them good for rental properties or situations where screens need to come in and out seasonally.
Removable Window Screens Harare
Some clients in Harare prefer removable window screens – particularly in rooms where large openings are used for ventilation and fixed screens would get in the way. We fit screens with simple clips or channels that allow removal without tools.
Fiberglass Window Screens Harare
Fiberglass window screens are the most popular choice for most Harare homes. They’re lightweight, don’t rust, don’t oxidise in the sun, and are easy to repair when damaged. We stock fiberglass mesh in standard grey and in charcoal (which gives a clearer view from inside the house).
Aluminum Window Screens Harare
For properties that need something a bit tougher – security conscious areas, homes with kids who push on screens, or high-wind exposed positions – aluminum window screens are worth considering. The mesh is stiffer and holds its shape better over time. The frame can also be powder-coated to match your window finishes.
Screen Door Installation Harare
A screen door does two things well – it lets air through while keeping insects out, and it adds a layer of security without blocking light. Screen door installation is one of our most popular services, especially in Harare’s warmer months when leaving doors open is the only way to get a breeze through the house.
We install screen doors on:
- Timber door frames (common in older Harare properties)
- Aluminium door frames (standard in most modern homes)
- Steel door frames
- French door openings
We carry stock in standard sizes and can fabricate for non-standard openings.
Screen Door Repair Harare
Screen doors take a lot more abuse than window screens. They get pushed, pulled, slammed, and kicked. Mesh gets torn. Frames get bent. Hinges pull loose. Closers stop working.
Screen door repair is something we handle fast – most repairs can be done in a single visit. We’ll look at the mesh, the frame, the hinges, the closer, the latch, and the track, and fix what needs fixing without charging for what doesn’t.
Screen Door Rescreening Harare
If the door frame is solid but the mesh has seen better days, screen door rescreening is the smart move. We remove the old spline, clean the channel, cut fresh mesh, and roll it back in tight. This refreshes the door without the cost of a full replacement.
Sliding Screen Door Repair Harare
Sliding screen doors have their own set of problems. Rollers wear out and the door won’t glide anymore. The mesh sags because the tension spline has dried and cracked. The frame warps and the door rubs. Sliding screen door repair covers all of this – new rollers, new mesh, frame adjustment, and track cleaning.
We carry rollers in most common sizes for standard sliding door systems used in Harare.
Screen Door Adjustment Harare
A screen door that doesn’t close properly – that swings too fast, drags on the floor, or gaps at the top or bottom – just needs adjustment. Screen door adjustment is a quick fix, usually done in under half an hour, and it makes a real difference to how the door works day to day.
Screen Door Closer Installation Harare
A good screen door closer means the door shuts itself every time, without slamming. Screen door closer installation takes about twenty minutes and saves years of the door being left open by kids or guests. We carry spring closers and pneumatic closers to suit different door weights.
Screen Door Lock Replacement Harare
If your screen door lock is broken, missing, or just worn out to the point where it doesn’t catch properly, screen door lock replacement is a simple fix. We stock hook-and-eye latches, magnetic catches, and keyed locks for security screen doors.
Screen Door Hardware Replacement Harare
Beyond the lock, screen doors have a range of small hardware items that wear out – hinges, handle sets, corner brackets, tension adjusters. Screen door hardware replacement keeps a solid door in service rather than replacing the whole unit.
Screen Door Weatherstripping Harare
During Harare’s rainy season, an ill-fitting screen door lets in more than just air. Screen door weatherstripping seals the gaps around the door frame, reducing dust, insects, and rain spray coming in under or around the door.
Retractable Screen Doors Harare
For wider openings or doorways where a traditional hinged screen door looks out of place, retractable screen doors are a neat solution. The screen rolls away into a slim cassette when not in use, invisible against the door frame. Popular for front entrances and sliding door openings in newer Harare homes.
Security Screen Doors Harare
A step up from a standard screen door, security screen doors combine fine stainless steel mesh with a reinforced frame and proper locking system. They let air and light through like a regular screen but resist forced entry. Increasingly popular in suburbs across Harare where security is a real concern.
French Door Screens Harare
French doors are one of the trickier openings to screen properly – two doors that both open means a standard screen won’t work. French door screens solve this with double-door magnetic closure screens, retractable split screens, or bi-fold configurations. We measure and fit for French door openings across Harare.
Insect Screening Harare
Harare’s mosquito season is real. So are the flies, moths, and midges that find their way inside every evening. Insect screening – whether for windows, doors, or full porch enclosures – is the most effective way to keep them out without chemicals or constant spraying.
We fit insect screening in fibreglass and aluminium mesh, in standard and fine weave depending on what insects are the issue in your area.
Bug Screen Installation Harare
Bug screen installation is what a lot of clients call it when they just want the insects out. We’ll assess which openings are letting them in, recommend the right mesh type and fitting method, and get it sorted.
Solar Screens Harare
In Harare’s summer, the afternoon sun through west-facing windows turns rooms into ovens. Solar screens are a dark, tightly woven mesh that block a significant portion of heat and UV while still allowing airflow and outward visibility. They fit like a standard window screen but perform very differently.
Solar screens on west-facing windows in Borrowdale, Highlands, or Mt Pleasant can noticeably reduce how hot those rooms get in October and November.
Pet Resistant Screens Harare
If you have a dog that leans against the screen door or a cat that’s decided the fly screen is a climbing frame, standard mesh isn’t going to last. Pet resistant screens use a heavier, vinyl-coated polyester mesh that handles claws and impact far better than fiberglass. We supply and fit pet resistant screens for doors and windows throughout Harare.
Privacy Screens Harare
For windows or outdoor areas where you want to reduce what people outside can see in, privacy screens are an option. These use a tightly woven mesh or louvred panel that limits sightlines while still allowing some air and light through. Common for bathrooms, street-facing bedrooms, and covered outdoor entertainment areas.
Decorative Screens Harare
Not every screen has to be purely functional. Decorative screens – laser-cut metal panels, patterned mesh, or ornamental grilles – can add a design element while still providing privacy or insect protection. We source and install decorative screens for homes and businesses in Harare.
Screen Lattice Installation Harare
Screen lattice is a structural mesh or grid system used in enclosures, under decks, or around raised areas to block access while allowing airflow. We supply and install screen lattice for residential and commercial properties.
Porch Screening Service Harare
A screened porch changes how you use your home. Instead of being chased inside every evening by mosquitoes, you can sit outside. Porch screening service covers fitting mesh panels into an existing porch structure – timber or steel framing, with a proper mesh fixed into place. We’ve screened porches across Harare from Greendale to Glen Lorne.
Screen Porch Enclosure Harare
A screen porch enclosure is a bigger project than a porch screen – it involves building a full framed structure with roof, floor, and sides to create an insect-free outdoor room. If your property has the space and you want a proper enclosure, we can quote for the full job.
Screen Enclosures Harare
Screen enclosures for patios, pools, and entertainment areas are a growing request in Harare. A full screen enclosure lets you enjoy the outdoor space without the insects, with a structure that holds the mesh properly and is built to last.
Balcony Screen Installation Harare
Balconies in Harare’s apartment blocks and cluster homes are often left without screening, which means evenings outside are limited to when there’s no wind and no mosquitoes – which isn’t often. Balcony screen installation uses tension mesh systems or framed panels to create a screened barrier that still feels open.
Patio Screen Repair Harare
Patio screens take weather, UV, and physical damage year after year. When panels tear, frames bend, or fixings pull loose, patio screen repair is the answer before the whole enclosure deteriorates. We assess and repair patio screening across Harare.
Pool Screen Repair Harare
Pool screen enclosures in Harare protect the pool from debris and create a more usable area around it. When the mesh tears or frames corrode, pool screen repair gets the enclosure back to working condition. We handle pool screen repairs for residential properties.
Screen Panel Replacement Harare
Whether it’s one panel in a porch enclosure or several in a patio screen system, screen panel replacement is faster and cheaper than removing and rebuilding the whole structure. We cut and fit replacement panels to match existing framing.
Screen Frame Repair Harare
Bent corners, broken rails, split sections – screen frame repair addresses the structural part of the screen rather than just the mesh. We work in aluminium and steel frames.
Screen Track Repair Harare
Tracks that are bent, clogged, or corroded stop sliding screens from working properly. Screen track repair or replacement gets them moving cleanly again.
Screen Replacement Harare
When repair isn’t viable – when the frame is too far gone or the cost of repair approaches the cost of new – screen replacement is the practical route. We supply and fit replacement screens for all types of openings.
Motorized Screen Installation Harare
For large openings, patio areas, or clients who want convenience, motorized screen installation brings a powered system that raises and lowers on a switch or remote. Used in entertainment areas and commercial settings in Harare.
Screen Curtain Installation Harare
Screen curtains are a flexible, non-structural insect barrier – mesh panels that hang in a doorway or opening and brush aside when you pass through. Popular in utility areas, kitchens with back door access, and garages. Screen curtain installation is a simple and affordable option for openings where a framed door isn’t practical.
Garage Door Screens Harare
A garage used as a workshop or entertainment space benefits from garage door screens – mesh panels that fit into the garage door opening, keeping insects out while the door is up. We supply and fit garage door screens for residential and commercial properties in Harare.
Storm Door Screens Harare
Storm door screens are dual-purpose doors – a glass insert for cold weather, a screen insert for warm weather. Less common in Harare’s climate than in colder regions, but used in some properties where weather protection is needed. We supply and fit storm door screens and handle mesh replacement.
Screen Patio Doors Harare
Patio doors that open onto the garden or a deck often need a screen to be usable in the evenings. Screen patio doors – either sliding or hinged to match the main door – let air through without letting insects in. We fit screen patio doors to suit existing patio door configurations.
Screen Cleaning Service Harare
Screens collect dust, pollen, and grime over time. A dirty screen restricts airflow and looks bad. Screen cleaning service – which we offer as a standalone or alongside other repair work – gets screens cleaned properly without damaging the mesh or the frame.
Screen Rolling Service Harare
Screen rolling service is the process of removing old mesh from a frame, cleaning the channel, cutting new mesh to size, and rolling the spline back in to lock it. It’s the core process behind most screen repairs. We offer screen rolling service in-store and as part of our mobile repair visits.
Screen Maintenance Harare
For property managers, landlords, and homeowners who want their screens kept in good condition year after year, we offer screen maintenance – a regular check of all screens on the property, cleaning, minor repairs, and a report on anything that needs attention. Good maintenance means fewer emergency repairs.
Screen Parts and Supplies Harare
If you prefer to do your own screen repairs, we sell screen parts and supplies over the counter from our Harare store. Mesh by the roll, spline in various widths, corner keys, frame sections, rollers, closers, latches, and handles. We’ll advise you on what you need if you bring in the screen or a photo of what you’re working with.
Door Screen Mesh Repair Harare
Focused specifically on door screens – the mesh replacement process on an existing screen door frame, without touching the frame itself. Door screen mesh repair is the most common single-item job we handle.
