30 Inch Hinged Screen Door – A screen door is a great way to not only allow some fresh air and sunshine to your home, but also to keep insects and other pests out in the same time. By using a screen door, you have the capacity to keep your home enclosed, while still allowing a breeze, either when the weather is hot or anytime you just want to allow just a little bit of atmosphere in. Although you can buy display doors for your home, they are actually fairly straightforward to make, requiring only a few supplies and tools, using simple building techniques. Screen doors can be very simple in design, or could be more elaborate, depending upon your wants and building skills.

Supplies You Will Need, You will require some thin wood inventory to use for your display door structure, a hardware frame for the door itself, and display meshing, along with a 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch screen molding. Some basic tools such as a tape measure, hamper, knife, chisel, staple gun and knobs will be needed.

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

Adding the Screen to the Door, Laying the door flat on the job table, measure the overall opening and cut a piece of display material into the proper size, leaving a few inches around the edges to make setup easier, which is trimmed later. Lay the display over the top of the door frame, and staple it to the peak of the frame, pulling it closely towards the bottom of the door. Make certain to pull the display tightly in the flat directions as well, keeping in mind that display tends to elongate over time. The display can be stapled directly to the door, as the staples will be covered by molding that will be placed around the border of this display. After the display was stapled securely into place, trim the display and cover the edges with all the display molding.

Finishing the Job, when the door itself was built, you can set up the door frame , and also then attach the new screen door into the frame. Attach a door handle and secure the door into the frame with spring hinges so that the door will shut automatically.
