(54) Screen assembly


(57) A screen assembly for a window comprising a tensioned screen moveable between a pair of spaced guide tracks, a handle being mounted on a free end of the screen between said guide tracks, and a locking device mounted on each end of the handle, the handle being moveable between a locking position, wherein the locking devices resectively engage a respective one of the guide tracks to prevent movement of the screen, and an unlocked position, wherein the locking devices are free to slide along respective guide tracks such that the screen is free to move with respect to the guide tracks, said handle and associated locking devices being biased towards said locked position by the action of the tensioned screen on the handle and being moveable towards said unlocked position, against said biasing force of the tensioned screen, wherein each locking device is connected to a respective end of the handle by connection means permitting limited movement of the respective locking device with respect to the handle to accommodate misalignment between the locking devices and the guide tracks.
