Built-on screens: a sleek match with your windows

Built-on screens are installed together with your windows, so they form one seamless whole. That makes them perfect for new builds or renovations with window replacement. The insulated boxes prevent heat loss and are subtly integrated, so they blend almost invisibly into your interior and façade. Built-on screens therefore combine practical convenience with a stylish touch. And at Wilms, you can also find them with integrated ventilation.

Why choose built-on screens?

Built-on screens are ideal for new builds or when you are replacing your windows. Wilms craftsmen install them together with your windows so that they blend stylishly into the look and feel of your home. Naturally, you also enjoy the energy efficiency and comfort you can expect from screens.

Fully integrated: windows and screens installed as one seamless whole
Energy-efficient: no thermal bridges, helping you meet EPB requirements
Aesthetic: the box can be finished in any RAL colour, fully or partly concealed
Comfortable: installed together with your windows, without additional demolition work
Smart design: side guides leave room for an insect screen, even when the screen is closed

Rolvent®: built-on screens with integrated ventilation

Ventilation and insulation are key priorities today in both new builds and renovations. That is why Wilms developed Rolvent® technology: a unique built-on box with ventilation fully integrated inside. This means fresh air can always enter, even when the screens are fully lowered.

Our solar shading expert, Sven Verlooy, explains the principle: “Many customers think they have to choose between solar shading and ventilation. With Rolvent®, you can have both. The ventilation is fully concealed inside the box and does not change the look or dimensions. What is more, we can add acoustic insulation if needed. This keeps out both the sun and disturbing noise.”

Thanks to Rolvent®, you combine sleek solar shading, energy efficiency and healthy air circulation in one solution.

Your questions answered by our expert

“I notice that customers often have the same questions: how visible is the box, what does it cost, and what about maintenance? They are fair questions, which is why I like to give clear answers.”

Are built-on screens always the best choice?

Built-on screens are perfect when you are building a new home or replacing your windows. Our craftsmen install them together with the windows, creating one seamless whole. If you want to keep your existing windows, we would usually recommend surface mounted screens instead. These can be installed afterwards without demolition work.

How much do built-on screens cost?

The price of built-on screens depends on several factors: dimensions, chosen finish, fabric type and extra options such as Rolvent® ventilation. Because every project is different, we always work with a made-to-measure quote. That way, you know exactly what the investment involves and get a solution that fully matches your needs.

Are built-on screens visible from the outside?

You can have the box fully concealed or opt for a version where part of the front plate remains visible. That front plate can then be finished in a RAL colour of your choice, so that the window and box blend seamlessly into your façade.

Those who love a sleek design usually choose an invisible finish, but some customers actually like the box to become a detail in the same colour as their windows.

Can I still carry out maintenance afterwards?

Many people think built-in screens are difficult to maintain, but the opposite is true. In fact, it is very practical that they can be accessed from the inside. The fabric roller with bottom bar remains fully removable as one complete unit, which means you never have to work on your façade to maintain the screens.
