Custom Wood Screen Doors – A screen door is a great way to not only allow some fresh air and sunshine into your house, but also to keep insects and other pests outside at precisely the exact same time. By employing a screen door, you have the capacity to maintain your house enclosed, while still allowing a breeze, possibly when the weather is hot or anytime you only need to allow a little bit of fresh air in. Although you can purchase display doors for your house, they are in fact fairly simple to make, requiring only a few supplies and tools, using simple construction methods. Screen doors can be very simple in layout, or can be elaborate, based on your needs and construction skills.

Supplies You Will Need, you’ll need some thin wood stock to use for the display door structure, a hardware framework for the door itself, and display meshing, together with a 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch screen molding.

Choose a well-dried wood to prevent future wood shrinkage, discoloration or warping. Measure the dimensions of the door you want to construct, and cut the vertical and horizontal pieces to fit. While constructing the door, it can help to clamp the door bits to a table. To produce the corner combines, in addition to when adding the center horizontal reinforcement piece, you will want to take off half the depth of a single piece of wood at the place where they will match a saw, so that the overall finished thickness of the joint will probably be equal to that of a single piece of wood. Utilize a polyurethane glue and a brush to attach the wood service bits together, then clamp and let it dry completely.

Adding the Screen to the Door, Putting the door flat on the work table, measure the overall opening and cut a piece of display material into the appropriate size, leaving several inches around the edges to make installation simpler, which is trimmed later. Lay the display over the top of the door frame, and staple it to the peak of the framework, pulling it tightly towards the bottom of the door. Be certain to pull the display tightly in the flat directions too, keeping in mind that display will elongate over time. The display can be stapled directly to the door, as the staples will be covered by molding which will be placed around the edge of the display. After the display has been stapled firmly into place, trim the display and cover the edges with all the display molding.

Finishing the Job, when the door itself has been built, you can set up the door frame itself, and then attach the new screen door into the framework. Attach a door handle and fasten the door into the framework using spring hinges so that the door will close mechanically.
