Tension Rod Screen Door – A screen door is a great way to not only allow some fresh air and sun to your home, but also to keep insects and other pests outside at the same moment. By using a screen door, you have the ability to keep your home enclosed, while still allowing a breeze, either when the weather is warm or anytime you only need to allow just a bit of atmosphere in. Although you can buy screen doors for your home, they are actually fairly simple to make, requiring only a few tools and supplies, using simple construction methods. Display doors can be very simple in layout, or can be more elaborate, based on your needs and construction abilities.

Supplies You Will Need, you’ll need some thin wood inventory to use for the screen door construction, a hardware framework for the door itself, and screen meshing, along with a 1/4 inch from 3/4 inch screen molding. You will also need paint brushes, glue brushes, varnish and 1 inch nails.

Designing and Cutting the Door, Thinner wood inventory is usually used when building a screen door, generally at a five-eighths thickness. Choose a well-dried wood to avoid future wood shrinkage, warping or swelling. Measure the dimensions of the door you want to build, and cut the vertical and horizontal pieces to fit. While constructing the door, it can help clamp the door pieces to a table. To make the corner combines, in addition to when adding the centre horizontal reinforcement piece, you’ll want to take off half the depth of a single piece of wood at the place where they will match a saw, so the overall finished thickness of this joint will be equivalent to that of one piece of wood. Use a polyurethane glue and a brush to attach the wood support pieces together, and then clamp and let it dry completely.

Adding the Display to the Door, Laying the door flat on the work table, measure the overall opening and cut a piece of screen material to the appropriate dimensions, leaving a few inches around the edges to make setup simpler, which will be trimmed later. Lay the screen over the surface of the door frame, and staple it to the top of the framework, pulling it tightly towards the base of the door. Be sure that you pull the screen tightly from the horizontal directions too, keeping in mind that screen will elongate over time. The screen can be soldered right to the door, as the principles will be covered by molding that will be placed around the border of this screen. After the screen has been stapled securely into place, trim the screen and cover the edges with the screen molding.

Finishing the Job, Once the door itself has been built, you can set up the door frame itself, and also attach the new screen door to the framework. Attach a door handle and secure the door to the framework using spring hinges so the door will shut mechanically.
