How to Measure Your Door Opening for a Swinging Screen Door

Getting a perfect fit for your new custom swinging screen door takes only about 5 minutes. Follow these simple steps before placing your order.

Important Golden Rules:

  • Measure the Opening: Always measure the inside edge of the door frame opening, not your existing door.

  • Order Format: Always record and submit your measurements as Width x Height (W x H).

  • The Shortest Measurement Rules: Houses settle, and frames aren’t always perfectly square. Always use the narrowest width and the shortest height when ordering.

Step 1: Gather Your Tools

  • A standard tape measure

  • Notepad and pencil to write down your measurements

Step 2: Measure the Width (3 Points)

Measure horizontally from the inside edge of the frame to the opposite inside edge at three different locations:

  1. Top Width: Inside edge to inside edge at the top.

  2. Middle Width: Inside edge to inside edge at the center.

  3. Bottom Width: Inside edge to inside edge at the bottom.

📝 Your Final Ordering Width: Look at all three numbers and write down the smallest (narrowest) measurement.

Step 3: Measure the Height (3 Points)

Measure vertically from the top inside edge of the frame down to the bottom sill/threshold at three different locations:

  1. Left Height: Top to bottom on the far left side.

  2. Center Height: Top to bottom right down the middle.

  3. Right Height: Top to bottom on the far right side.

📝 Your Final Ordering Height: Look at all three numbers and write down the smallest (shortest) measurement.
