Where Can I Find A Replacement Window Screen For My RV?

by Marilyn
(Asheville, NC)

We bought a used Prowler Lynx and the screen for the emergency exit window in the bedroom is missing. I have searched the web and cannot find a replacement for it. Any suggestions?

ANSWER: Greetings Marilyn thanks for submitting your question on our Ask An RV Question Page.

The first thing I would do is contact one of your local RV Dealers and find out where they get the replacement screens for the RVs on their lot from. I will forewarn you that if you do find a screen, it may cost a lot more than you expect.

A more economical way of replacing the screen would be to build one yourself. All you have to do is buy a Window Screen Frame Kit and screening material and you can make your own replacement screen.

Now if you are not comfortable doing this yourself you can always enlist a handy friend or neighbor to help you. This will save you a bunch of time searching for the exact window screen and hopefully a little bit of money.

It will also give you some bragging rights when you show your RV off to somebody. All you have to do is point to the window and say "You See That Window Screen? I Built It". :-)

Why no screen
by: Anonymous

The reason your emergency exit windows are missing screens is they aren’t supposed to have them because they are exits.

Rounded corners

As an add-on: I forgot to mention that you'll need to know the radius of your corners.

Screens with rounded corners
by: Zepe

There are two companies that I know of that have kits you can out together for rounded, square or both types of corners. Be carefull beause in my case the channel the screens fit into were too narrow for these.

Rounded corners
by: Brenda

I seem to be with everyone else here ... I am missing a screen on my RV ; two rounded corners and two 90 degree corners. I have called every ad online and no one seems to know how or where I can get one lousy screen made. I even have it's twin they can use for a template.
I see a lot of folks are looking for this same thing here. Does Anyone have any answers ?

RV screen replacement
by: G-MAN

I purchase a 2014, Forest River Wildcat, paid cash, after getting it home I realized the small window screen on the super slide was missing, I contacted Best RV, and told them about the missing screen, they said that they would send me a new one, guess what they didn't. I am also looking for a rounded corner screen kit.
