What do you mean by open screens mate?
Are you talking about the number of home screens? Are you using an alternate launcher like Nova?

I think I understand what you mean. On KitKat, the stock launcher only allows extra screens if they contain widgets. No widgets, no other screens. A screen is automatically created when you drag widgets to another screen and removed when there are no widgets.
On what phone and which Kit Kat?
II tried a friend's phone with 4.4 and it had 5 screens in the default launcher two had widgets and three were blank. I could not find a way to add a sixth.
With Nova Launcher it was as simple to add in 4.4 as it was in 4.0, 4.1, and 4.2.

on 4.4 you can not have blank home screens. Screens are created by dragging app/widgets to a new screen (similar to iOS). when you remove all icons/widgets from a screen, the screen will be deleted. If the screen still does not delete, try rebooting the phone.
