Bought a screen door didn’t come with instructions and found this video 100% gold step by step very easy. Screen doors should come with a link to this video!!!
Thank you for the amazing review. Let's tell all the other screen door companies to link to this video
You are so accurate and great with your step by step installation. I never put up a screen door before but you made it look so simple and guess what thanks to you it was. Thank you so much indeed...
Wow this is a wonderful comment. I truly appreciate your feedback. Thank you 😊
@@Bestcustomscreens no problem and thank you again 😊
My husband and I finally got around to hanging the screen today… it’s PERFECT!! Super easy (as long as you have the tools). I love it. Thank you!
It's my pleasure! I'm glad that it ended up being perfect and that you had the tools to complete the job. Thanks for watching! Please let your friends know about us.
Good step by step instructions. They held me out.
Glad it helped. Thanks for watching!
This is an EXCELLENT Video!!
Thank you very much for being Detailed re: visual and verbal instruction.
I searched many videos. I am replacing a door on an older structure. I really like the retractor higher than in the center. GREAT JOB!
Thank you very much for your feedback. There are so many comments on this video and somehow I must have missed your comment. I truly appreciate the awesome review. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! Take care and God Bless.
Great step by step instruction. Thank you!
You're welcome!
I just watched your video,and you showed how to put in the screen door very well. I will be putting mine on tomorrow! Thank you
Thank you 😊 I'm glad you watched and it was useful.
Thank you so much I'm fixing my grandma retractor and yall had pretty much what I needed and I got it put on and working how she likes
It's my pleasure to help. I'm glad we could assist in some way. Enjoy and take care.
Thanks for making it easy to follow.
Agree with you, the correct tools make it easy to get the work done.
Thanks for watching. What type of Screen door did you install?
Thank you muchachos for the clear and informative video,I'll be attempting to install my new door in a few days.
That's great to hear. Thank you. 😊 Where did you buy your screen door from?
@@Bestcustomscreens Lowes in NM.
I ne ver do well learning from a video but You really did a great step by step with your directions And explanation thank you so much I hope a wooden screen door is put on the same way I just want a screen door for the warmer months. #1 teacher!👍🏻
Thank you for the most humbling feedback. I'm glad I could help. Please let know how your install goes. Thanks again. 👌
Great company to work for.
Thank you for this wonderful video!
Old video but I think you were supposed to cut the hinge part of the frame 2 3/16
So that the bottom cross shoe or bug rubber strip goes all the way across on the bottom.
But great video. Gonna install 2 tomorrow.
Thank you 🙏
Ok as for the gap on the top. Personally, I would have placed the door flush with the top of the hinge channel. You gave it 1/16 of an inch for clearance which should be just fine, then I would have adjusted the bottom sweep plate to fill the gap on the bottom. The way you have it installed just does not look good. I believe the bottom sweeps are large enough and meant for that purpose. I do not mean to criticize your work, only that as the customer, I would have not accepted that installation placement of the door. And if you know you are working with aluminum, you should be prepared with the tools needed, such as the deburring tool for the holes, using the box knife is not a good way to represent how this is suppose to be done. There is one more item you did not mention and that was that you were placing this door onto the actual door trim work. Was that trim sturdy enough and anchored properly to be able to hold up to a swinging door. I would be upset if one day you go out and off comes the door along with the trim.....
Well done! Thank you!!
It's my pleasure to serve. I'm glad you enjoyed it and pray that it helped you install your screen door.
Thank you for the instructions helped alot
You're welcome 😊 I'm glad it helped out. Please let us know if we can help with anything else. Thanks again. 👌

Very good job
Thank you so much 😀
Thank you!!!!
You're welcome 😊
Thank you!
I can't believe the door handle was the hardest part but that plastic jig they included threw me way off since it wouldn't shut with it on thinking I messed up somewhere.
Where did you buy the screen door from? Can you send us a video of what you are talking about?
Nice example for me to learn..... ;)
Great video, thanks!!!
Thank you. Did you get your screen door installed today?
@@Bestcustomscreens i got it halfway installed. I didn't put the door knob on yet. I got it mounted to the door jam.. it started getting late, so I going to hopefully finish when I get off work tomorrow.
@@FCP32 Yes installing a swinging screen door does take some time. Enjoy and let me know if there is any other question I can answer.
thank you!!!
It's my pleasure. I hope you were able to get your screen door installed easily. Please let us know how it went.
@@Bestcustomscreens I have to do my sisters screened porch. But there is no door framing yet. Any ideas on how to frame out a door opening in an existing screened porch?
@@Sunrayman123 It's hard to say without seeing your project. Please send me a couple of pictures to our email at bestcustomscreens@gmail.com

Wow! Was that ever helpful! 65 yo woman with tools, but door had zero instructions. Thank you SO much for your help!!
It's my pleasure. I'm very glad I could help. Thanks for watching 👀 🙂
Thank you for such a concise instructional video. And you took your time explaining each step. Well done!
That camera guy is breaking hard. 😱 Omg
Thank you. 😳
You're welcome 😊 Thanks for watching.
Pre drill the wood screws so you don’t run the chance of splitting the wood , place 1/8 shims on the head and the strike side with tape for a solid reveal and shut the door and screw it off
The screws that come with the screen door are self drilling. Everyone has there way of doing things. I am pretty much self taught after being in the field for a few days...lol. Thanks for the input.
Very nicely done. I need to install one of these to keep my cats from getting out accidently. One question, do you use a special blade in your mitre saw for cutting the molding? I have a mitre saw that has the standard blade installed that I use for cutting lumber. Can I use that or do I need another blade.
Thank you for your wonderful comments. We use a special saw blade that is very costly, but you can use a standard miter saw with a blade that can cut aluminum and get the same results.
@@Bestcustomscreens how many teeth does your blade have? I bought a Diablo blade for metal but it does not cut as clean as yours.
@@bernitup6492 It doesn't have to do with the teeth as much. You should have a 120 tooth carbide tip blade that cuts aluminum and it should work. But that is not why our saw cuts so smooth.
The saw we use cuts steel, aluminum, wood, plastic and more. Why? Its because of the slower rotation and type of saw amzn.to/38PhT1z - Check it out! The Evolution Saw is amazing.
best
Thank you 😊
Great video Steve, thank you! One question, does it matter, when you shorten the outside frame, if you cut from the top AND the bottom or just from one end? ie. the hinges won't be centred, or does that really matter? Thanks.
It's doesn't matter top or bottom or if you cut both to center. I usually cut top only because that's how I've been doing it for years.
Thanks, that helps.
Great video, I have the exact door and style, just what I was looking for. How much is the screen door?
😃Thank you for watching our video. 🎥 That model screen door 🚪 is called Model E and is available at www.bestcustomscreens.com/shop/custom-model-e-hinged-swinging-screen-door/ . The cost 💰ranges between $299.99 to $399.99 depending on the size and color.
Hey Bro what about the ones for a sliding glass door? Do you have video for them?
www.bestcustomscreens.com/how-to-instructions/how-to-install-sliding-screen-door/ Here is a link to thw instructions page for sliding screen doors. It also has thw RUclips video on it. Thnx for watching.
Thanks. Appreciate it bro.
What about the drip edge on top of the door so the rain doesn't come in?
Can you share a photo of drip edge you are talking about?
the additonal screws you added to keep the actual screen door in you just guessed where to put them at or are there holes there to add the screws?
It's not really a guess. You need make sure it's 8 inches from the corners and one about center.
Ok..im embarrassed I asked that question ☺️ I just had to rewatch that part.thank you😊
@@wezugo34 don't be embarrassed. I'm here to help. Thanks for watching.
Bonito video y cuanto se puede cobrar por istalar una puerta de esas
Gracias por ver nuestro video. Por favor envíeme un correo electrónico con su pregunta sobre el precio de instalación a bestcustomscreens@gmail.com
Are you installing it on the door trimming?
Its is being installed in the door frame or you can also install at the stucco molding. The door frame is best if you have the room with your door handle. Hope this helps. Sorry for the later reply. Please let us know if there is anything else we can do to help.
Can someone tell me why there was a gap at the top of this door?
I'm sorry we didn't see your message. There are so many comments on this video and missed it. The gap is explained on other comments. The customers ordered the screen door and install on our website. They measured incorrectly. We came back another day and added a top channel similar to the bottom big seal channel. Hope this helps. Thanks for watching 👀 🙂
Nice video!
What is the brand of the door and where one may purchase it? Apologies if it was answered already that I am being redundant here.

Thank you
@@Bestcustomscreens oh one more do you have exactly like that door on the video but with door door?
Thank you.
@@bigboy7512 Sorry the door itself was already installed and we do not carry doors.
Nice job but there seems to be a gap at the top
Thank you. Yes we realized that when we installed it. This is what happens when someone else measures a job. We ended up going back and adding a channel on top to close in the gap. We shot the video anyways because of the need to have this video. Thank you for the feedback.
Hello how come your not working with Jimmy anymore you know in the breaking bad jajaja
What is The brand of this door ?
bestcustomscreens.com
What happened to the sound?
I can hear it. Maybe you need to refresh your browser?
Did you resolve the sound problem?
Your camera guy was about to sleep i can hear him snoring jjjjjjjj
Thanks for watching 👀 and paying attention.
Great instructor. Just the guys that’s recording needs to take it easy breathing lol
The dude filming is breathing way to hard
I came to the comments to see if someone else said it lmfao
I cannot stop laughing...this is too funny!!! Thank you. You really made my day.
He made it look too easy
Thank you for watching. We appreciate it.
Sorry but that’s NOT how you install that door-closer device! That’s why that door you installed will NOT fully open 90 degrees and it’s why it won’t pull closed as it should! The little plastic spacer is used for installation. It’s purpose is to create the correct space gap, THEN you screw on the other end while the door is fully closed, then you remove the plastic piece.
I cant quite understand exactly what you are describing. Can you share a video that explains this?
did you cheat and help the door closer at the end?
No cheating. Pure raw video.
Wearing a big cross, geeeez
Thank you! God Bless!
14:49 If your drill bits don’t have a point then use an automatic centre punch 1st. 21:57 I like the screw up on the top where you can see daylight for about 1/2”. So he forgot to line up the top before screwing in the bottom piece with the rubber sweep. Duh. Don’t hire this guy.
Yo my guy tell your camera guy take it easy on his breathing couldn’t even get past seven minutes couldn’t take it no more
We have had several comments about the camera man. I can only assume he might of had a hard time breathing because at that time he was a recent ex drug addict and ex homeless person.
He turned his life around that year and for the past 3 years has done an amazing job with his life and especially his new family and newborn son.
I thought I'd mention it because we are very proud of his success.
Thanks for watching our video.
@@Bestcustomscreens Aww we obviously didn’t know that but that’s great he is turning his life around
@@Bestcustomscreens that’s awesome! Tell him congrats on everything. And you rock for defending him. I didn’t hear this “breathing”
@@Mama_Bear524 thanks for watching and commenting. Please Subscribe to see when more of our videos are released. Thanks again. 👌
The heavy breathing and waterfall is distracting.
If you look at other comments, other people did also complain. You should look down further in the comments and learn why that person was breathing that way. Plus that's back when we first started doing RUclips videos before we owned mics. Thank you for watching 👀. I hope you were able to use the knowledge to install a screen door 🚪
Too bad the bugs can still get in with that huge gap at the top of the door. What happened with that? If your doors are all like this, maybe we should shop elsewhere.
U sound like a girl
@@nategonzales6135 But there is a huge gap at the top. Otherwise looks well fitted.
Thank you for watching our video all the way through. You wouldn't have noticed that until the last half of the video. We realized there was a gap but we still shot the video because we had approval from the customer. Someone else measured and ordered online. This is what happens when someone doesn't know how to read a tape measure correctly. We still came back a later time and added a piece of U channel like it has on bottom to stop the bugs. Thanks again.
Can someone tell me why there was a gap at the top of this door ?
Because the customer ordered online and didn't measure correctly. We were able to fix it later and we needed to shoot the video. Either way it's worked out for us because this is one of our most watched videos and people always ask this question.
Thank you for you input. Did you install a screen door today?
Once he slid the screen door into the track, he should have closed the door then slid the screen door up to leave a 3/16 inch gap at the top then use screws to attach screen to track. That's the reason why there's a gap on top. Other than that missed step, it was a great video.
@@Bestcustomscreens what did you do to fix the gap? or what did you used?
@@minino-111 We used the same type of u channel that is used on the bottom.
Because it was installed wrong.
