Why Fortress Screens Are a Smart Safety Upgrade for Schools + Universities
August 12, 2025Rising to the Challenge of Budget Cuts
- A Smarter Solution for Housing Authorities -
With a proposed 44% cut to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) budget, housing authorities nationwide are facing unprecedented financial pressure. These reductions make responsible budgeting and maintenance more challenging than ever.
One area that’s often overlooked—but can yield significant cost savings—is the ongoing replacement and repair of window and door screens.
The Hidden Costs of Traditional Screens
Traditional insect screens are fragile and easily damaged, creating a cycle of constant repairs and replacements.
Costs quickly add up:
Replacing a window screen can cost up to $72
Repairing a screen may run around $36
For housing authorities managing large complexes,
these recurring expenses strain already limited resources—
especially with reduced federal support.
