Abstract: The device consists of a pair of semicircular, transparent sheets of resilient plastic material, one of the sheets having molded on one surface a series of pegs which are insertable through the mesh of the screening. The other sheet has a corresponding pattern of holes to receive the pegs such that the two semicircular sheets can be secured together with a portion of screening between them in sandwich fashion. The device is used to reinforce and protect the mesh screening adjacent to the handle of a screen door so that bulging or accidental puncturing of the screening is avoided.
