By employing a screen door, you also have the ability to keep your home enclosed, while allowing a breeze, either when the weather is hot or anytime you only want to let a little bit of fresh air in. Even though you can purchase display doors for your home, they are actually fairly simple to make, requiring only a few tools and supplies, using simple building methods. Display doors can be either very simple in layout, or could be more elaborate, based on your needs and building abilities.
Supplies You Will Need, you’ll require some thin wood stock to use for your display door structure, a hardware framework for the door itself, and display meshing, along with a 1/4 inch by 3/4 inch screen molding. You’ll also require paint brushes, glue brushes, varnish and one inch nails.
Pick a well-dried wood to avoid future wood shrinkage, warping or swelling. Measure the dimensions of the door you want to construct, and cut the horizontal and vertical pieces to match. While constructing the door, it can help to clamp the door bits to a work table. To produce the corner joins, as well as when adding the center horizontal reinforcement piece, you’ll want to take off half of the depth of a single piece of wood where they will intersect with a saw, so that the overall finished thickness of this joint will be equivalent to that of a single piece of wood. Utilize a polyurethane glue and a brush to attach the wood support bits together, then clamp and allow to dry thoroughly. When the glue joints are completely dry, you can sand the door, and apply a stain and clean finish, or paint the door if desired.
Adding the Display to the Door, Laying the door flat on the work table, measure the overall opening and cut a piece of display material into the appropriate size, leaving a few inches around the edges to make installation easier, which will be 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 base of the door. Be certain that you pull the display tightly in the flat directions too, keeping in mind that display will stretch over time. The display can be soldered right to the door, as the principles will be dealt with by molding which will be placed around the edge of this display. After the display has been stapled securely into place, trim the display and cover the edges with the display molding.
Finishing the Job, Once the door itself has been assembled, you can install the door frame itself, and also 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.
