Claim:
A lateral pull wire screen comprising: a wire screen frame that includes a first longitudinal frame member fixed to a building opening part in a longitudinal direction and a lateral frame member fixed to an upper part of the building opening part in a lateral direction; a movable frame of which an upper end is guided by the lateral frame member and is disposed so as to be laterally pulled; a net that is attached between the first longitudinal frame member and the movable frame and is openable and/or closeable by a lateral pull of the movable frame; and a net guide of which an end is detachably attached to the first longitudinal frame member, goes in and out to and from the inside of the movable frame while being bent in compliance with the opening and/or closing of the net caused by the lateral pull of the movable frame, and guides only a lower end of upper and lower ends of the net under a stretched state, wherein the first longitudinal frame member includes a pair of caps that is attached to upper and lower ends of the first longitudinal frame member, respectively, and is formed in a substantially symmetrical shape, each of the caps is provided with an attachment part that selectively attaches an end of the net guide to one of the caps, the end of the net guide is attached to the attachment part of the only cap, which is disposed at the lower end of the first longitudinal frame member, of the caps, the movable frame includes a frame main body that is formed in a substantially symmetrical shape, and upper and lower frame caps that are attached to upper and lower ends of the frame main body so as to be replaceable with each other, the upper frame cap is provided with a guide mechanism that is guided by the lateral frame member, the lower frame cap is provided with a bend guide that causes the net guide to go in and out to and from the inside of the frame main body while being bent, and left and/or right convenience in a net opening and/or closing can be altered by reversing the upside and downside of a wire screen main body that includes the first longitudinal frame member, the movable frame, and the net; attaching the upper and lower frame caps to the frame main body so that the upper and lower frame caps are replaced with each other; and attaching the end of the net guide to the attachment part of the cap, which is disposed at the lower end of the first longitudinal frame member, of the pair of caps of the first longitudinal frame member.
