This was way better than the how-to videos posted by the companies that make the screens. Thank you!

[@brittanyperala1992]

Thank you!

[@carolleroy448]

I used a tension rod
Folded extra over made a pocket to slide rod through
and tacks the the sides worked great for kids and dogs😅

[@jorjannag4582]

Agreed!

[@rswow]

@@carolleroy448 I bought an 83" high screen, needs to go on a 79.5" metal frame opening. Wondering how to do this, or should I just cut it...

[@deniseunknown4576]

This is fantastic. My Velcro came in sections, not a strip. And the instructions were a bit confusing. I appreciate those who make up RUclips University. They make my life so much easier. Thank you so much for taking the time to create these videos for us.

[@TheJbull40]

I don’t need one of these but I watched anyway. I like this man’s way of explaining his how to videos. I saw his toilet flapper video, also for no reason, and his 2” blind fix video which is the one that helped me fix my blinds. Straight and to the point with no BS comedy routine. I like that! 👍🏼

[@j.mcconnell3863]

I would listen to Chris give instructions on anything 🙌🏻 I’m a huge fan

[@voiceoverguyharris]

You need to review more products, this was honest and real, thank you.

[@MsCook-1]

Thank you, I was a tad bit overwhelmed. This helped a lot.

[@renegoodson2353]

Thanks i was unsure if i could do this myself, you gave simple instructions to follow
Thanks

[@EmazingGuitar]

It’s a very simple install, how is this overwhelming? Can’t imagine you doing an actual complicated install, you might have a panic attack

[@MsCook-1]

@@EmazingGuitar 🤣🤣🤣 you really didn't have to comment lol but sir you are correct 🤣

[@esotericvv1244]

@@EmazingGuitar I broke my finger doing this when hammering. Not everyone is a master craftsmen like you. Also the measuring process is the hard part for most

[@ashleysmith6053]

@@EmazingGuitar lol I think what she meant was the instructions in the box made it seem more complicated. They tell you to lay it out on the floor and loop this and that and a bunch of useless information. That is why I got on to look lol. So this video makes it a lot more easier to install then the directions it came with. Your comment did make me chuckle 🤭

[@ConnorMarc]

Your instructions are 1000 times better than the original instructions. Thank you!

[@lucyexcellentconsultingser2847]

I wish the instructions where as simple as your video. Thank you immensely for saving me today.

[@terrideveau6540]

Thank you! It was a lot easier to do after watching your video! Thank you for taking the time!

[@tracyreifkind3810]

Folding the extra over on the sides was brilliant!!!! After I ordered one (and had it hanging around uninstalled for almost 2 months), I realized our back door is not as wide as the front door.....wondering what to do? And then you solved the problem perfectly! Thank you so much for the video! Also, applies the velcro to the door frame, as you demonstrated, instead of to the screen door, then apply it all to the frame like the company instructions suggested. Much better idea!

[@melaniemowery9681]

Just bought one; feel much more confident to hang it, now! Thank you!

Helpful, quick, to the point, and very much appreciated, thank you

[@syrpentina]

Thank you! 🤗❤

[@deltalima5806]

Thanks for posting this Chris. Does the job and much cheaper than an actual door when you really don't need one.

[@cliffordbrewer5493]

Thank you it's nice to see someone who explains it well.👍

[@ihhngglorialazaro9732]

Excellent how to video !!! Simpler and to the point !

[@marciab1279]

You Made it a lot simpler than the how-to-videos they have out there.
Thanks

[@10yrdriftkid40]

Thank you for this video. We had to do the adjustments and wouldn't have known what to do, this was so easy to follow.

[@cherrydaltonfinch217]

Thanks to your great video... I managed to install mine with ease. So thank you kindly for taking the time to share. 😊. I just wanted to say how beautiful the filigree iron work on your front porch looks. So pretty, I wish we could get such decorations over in the UK 😊

[@ewaller95]

Short, sweet, and to the point. Great video! Thank you!

[@baconhair4534]

Thank You. I like how you tested the door repeatedly starting at 2:51. Its totally what I would do...

[@CampfireJubilee]

Thank you!!! This was so straightforward and helpful!!! I think I can manage to hang mine up now!!! So appreciated!

[@valeriemendez7590]

Thank you bunches! I had this sitting around my house 4 months. Your video made it easy.

[@mehdi.farrokh]

Now the question is how long did it last?

[@ikhan920]

Mine just came in. This was a helpful video to watch prior to installation. Thank you.

[@HeySarahGurl]

This helped me and my mom put a lot. It’s a last minute fix before our bbq in a few hours so fingers crossed!

[@christhomas6239]

Good video. Quick and easy. I got this exact same screen door and I'm about to put it up. Many thanks.

[@danielleledesma5607]

You answered my question before you even got started 😆I could not figure out what the wide strip was for and that was my whole reason for finding a video so thank you so much

[@alienxyt]

The hem is the trick I was looking for. Thanks!

[@jpocketrocket]

Great video ,where you live does it get cold with snow and all? The Velcro that goes against the door frame gets the tacks and then the Velcro door goes against that, so you can remove it in the winter months, thanks for showing me. Now I know what will work for us.

[@garlandboddie9585]

Thanks for explaining it as simply as you did.

[@lisabryant949]

Thank you. This was very helpful...especially the folding part. The length and the width was too much on my door and I hadn't thought about doing that until your video.

[@irishdemarco3828]

Thank you for reviewing it! My worries are gone after watching this

[@SoulSeeker770]

This is what I have been using for several years. My only qualm is that they do not last. Most last about 1 year but my most recent lasted a few months. Looking for a way to frame it and make it look nicer and one that will last.

[@dgafkween_909]

This was an accidental view trying to watch another video and SOOO happy I watch this one! Made my day after work and feel better the route I was going to be taking

[@TinaRice4]

It really helps to see it being installed! You dog is ADORABLE!!! 🐾💗🐾

[@MsThaddeus]

Great video, short and sweet. All the info you require without the "repeats" some videos have.
Great job. 👍

[@SahzD]

Thanks for the video! I watched this before making my purchase to understand what I was getting myself into. I like your trick with doing the velcro also, that makes sense.

[@tukos7370]

helped me a bunch with installing the thermal curtain thanks!!

[@kcudmore21]

Thanks for the video. It's nice to have a visual before attempting to install the mesh door.

[@ChrisMcDowellDIY]

That's why I made the video! Glad it is helpful.

[@sarat8388]

Thank you so much! I rent and was worried about using the velcro strips. This really helped!

[@outdrsgrl]

Thank you for posting this, very helpful and appreciated the tips on how to tailor it for your door! Was hesitant on installing it/how to measure the door (as it will be installed on the inside), but am more confident now, thanks to your video!

Thanks for the help man. Makes good sense using the velcro too during installation.

[@ChrisMcDowellDIY]

Thanks man. Seem like it'd be way more difficult to try to do it without the velcro. But doing it by myself, the velcro was a no-brainer.

[@attacklich2]

ur a hero for giving the people what they want

[@headdown1]

I have one in my RV. It is great for letting my dog go in and out as he pleases. It also lets less mosquitoes in because it hugs your body and has less open space that a normal screen door when going in and out.
My first one lasted two years. I just finished installing my new one today. I advise not letting it quite touch the ground, or you will wear a hole in the hem and the magnets that hold the flaps together will fall out.

[@128Darling]

Thanks for this !

[@shawjonas65]

Nice job Chris

[@PeteySmoothJazz5059]

Great video!! Thanks for your assistance, we have the same screen door apparatus.

[@MrCarburettor]

Much better than the official video, thank you!!!

[@luiz2006sp]

Thanks for this! Now I know how to do! Thanks from Brazil!

[@smilemkr]

Oops tapped done too soon. Continued… wasn’t paying attention to when you made this but I just wanted to thank you. I have been procrastinating on installing my screen for a bit now because I wasn’t sure about what to do where my “double doors” are shorter than the length of the screen. After I watched your video, I saw how yours came out when you hemmed the sides (it didn’t look so bad) so, I’m going to attempt installing mine now 🤪. Keep your fingers crossed for me! Also, I loved the idea of using the Velcro and the tacks for extra reinforcement. The more secure, the better your door, I guess lol. Thanks again, Smilez~
