How to replace old flyscreen accessories?

[Laura654789]

Where can I find these flyscreen clips for this type of windows. The house is 30-40 years old, and the flyscreen clips facing the afternoon sun have broken, we can't find these clips anywhere. I'd appreciate any suggestions. Thank you!

Hello @Laura654789 

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community. It's sensational to have you join us and thanks for sharing your question about flyscreen accessories. 

I propose replacing your lock with a Rolltrak Zinc Flyscreen Flush Swivel Clip. This is of course on the condition that the clips are suitable to the flyscreen assembly you currently have. My other recommendation is to contact a 3D printing firm to duplicate your lock. My best advice is to make sure they use UV stable material so that it does not become too brittle straight away. 

If you have any other questions we can help with, please let us know.

Hi Eric,

It looks like 3D printing will be the way to go.

Thank you so much for your reply. Really appreciate it!

Kind regards,

Hi @Laura654789,

What about this.

Sometimes there's only room for the screw so I cut off the base flush with the lever arm.

Cheers
