Making Waves

Screen Saver

H ow many times have patio screens been shredded by curious cats or poked through by rambunctious kids? Solve screen woes with FlexScreen, a replacement kit designed with pets and kids in mind.

Made of a combination of nylon and Spandex, FlexScreen is extremely resistant to tears and impact--even UV rays--and it installs in minutes without tools. Your customers simply stretch FlexScreen across the frame and snap the mounting corners, locking it in place.

FlexScreen comes in two complete do-it-yourself kits, including enough product to rescreen a 36-by-80-inch or 48-by-80-inch patio door and a trimming knife to complete the project. Stored in cut-case displays that make merchandising easy, the FlexScreen is packaged by the dozen in colorful plastic bags.

Wholesale prices are individually negotiated based on the volume of each order. Suggested retail price: $19 to $25. Minimum order: One case of 12.

From Elgar Products Inc., Cleveland, Ohio. To order, call (800) 321-4970.
