How-To Sliding Screen Door

How-To Sliding Screen Door

How to Measure an Economy Sliding Screen Door

How to measure a sliding screen door

The most common widths are 36″ & 48″.  The most variation in measuring slider screen doors and the most critical measurement is the height!  Furthermore, refer to the instructions below for height measuring, while making sure to use the right tool for the job.

Also, always use a heavy-duty measuring tape with a blade width of minimum 1 Inch.  Typical Blade Material Steel, Case Type Closed, Graduations 1/16 In.  Stanley lock 25 ft. “the old diehard contractors tape” would do just fine, and the way  I personally use and prefer a Stanley Fat Max 25 ft!!  Since it works great for large window and door openings.

Always use a 1″ minimum-width tape measure.

Step-by-step process

  • Measure the width.
  • Most common widths are 36″ and 48″
  • Measure the height.
  • Set your tape measure on the top of the bottom track
  • Measure upward at the bottom lip of the U-Channel.
  • Add a quarter inch 1/4″ to your measurement.

How To Install a Sliding Screen Door

Installing a sliding screen door made easily

Step-by-step installation guide.

  1. Attach plastic track guides to the top of the right side of the frame and then to the left side.
  2. Take your sliding screen door and carefully insert the top wheel and frame up into the top channel
  3. Use your putty knife or flat-head screwdriver to lift the lower wheels over the bottom track.
  4. If the wheels do not raise, then use the Phillips head screwdriver to turn the set screw clockwise or counterclockwise to adjust the wheel outside of the frame.
  5. Slide the wheels and bottom frame after the bottom track.
  6. Use silicone spray or Aluma-Lub on the bottom track and wheels for smooth sliding.
  7. Set the J-hook for the latch.
  8. You will need the cordless drill, the j-hook, the self-drilling screw, and the track guides are attached to the black latch in a clear plastic bag.
  9. Remove it.  Mark the frame where the metal latch is located, then mark the frame where the j-hook is going to mount.
  10. Install the J-hook with the provided screws, and adjust if needed.  Test the screen door to make sure everything works.

SHIPPING & DELIVERING SCREENS

🚚 Large Item Shipping Policy

Because our custom screen doors and large window screens (over 46 inches) are fully built and highly fragile, they cannot ship via standard parcel carriers like UPS or FedEx. We utilize specialized freight and regional trucking networks to deliver them safely.

Your product will arrive as a high-quality, easy-to-assemble kit to keep your shipping costs affordable and prevent transit damage. If a customer chooses to ship a Fully Assembled Screen Door, please be advised that the shipping will be expensive.
