SCREEN ASSEMBLY FOR A FRAME OPENING
First Claim
1. A screen assembly for disposition in a frame opening, said screen assembly comprising:
- a first rail for bounding one side of the frame opening;
a second rail spaced from and fixed relative to said first rail for bounding an opposite side of the frame opening,a first guide adjustably coupled to said first rail for selectively moving said first guide relative to said first rail;
a second guide extending from said second rail; and
a screen apparatus including a screen and a slide component coupled to said screen with said slide component extending between and slideably interacting with said first guide and said second guide for selectively extending and retracting the screen across the frame opening.

Abstract
A screen assembly is disposed in a frame opening of a building. The screen assembly includes a first rail bounding one side of the frame opening and a second rail spaced from and fixed relative to the first rail bounding an opposite side of the frame opening. A first guide is adjustably coupled to the first rail and a second guide extends from the second rail. The screen assembly includes a screen apparatus having a screen and a slide component coupled to the screen. The slide component slides along the first and second guides for extending the screen across the frame opening. The location of the first guide may be adjusted relative to the first rail to align the first and second guides thereby allowing the slide component to freely slide along the guides.
