The easiest way to install a pet passage door on the screen door is to remove it first.  Although the difficulties will vary from house to house, but most screen doors are held in place with hinges.  Simply take a screwdriver and remove all the screws from the hinges.  Since screws are tiny, make sure to put them into a sealable plastic bag so you can find them later.

After the door is out, lay it flat on the table or workbench and wipe off any debris first.  Next you will need to mark the area you will be cutting.  The pet door instructions should give you the recommended size to cut on the screen door.  Carefully measure out the hole and mark it with a pencil.

Once the marking is on the door, use a hacksaw or for quicker cutting, use a powered angle grinder that has an aluminum cutting stone.  You’ll want to make the cut as clean as possible so it will be easier to install the pet door.

After that is all complete, you’re ready to install the pet passage door.  Follow the direction on the pet door instructions.  After everything is in place, clean off any shavings and put the screen door back.

Operability

Like anything else, the screen door latch may begin to have issues with use and age. The most common failure with these latches seems to be wearing of the inner springs. As they wear out, they begin to lose their tension and the latch doesn’t catch properly with the striker plate. If your latch is experiencing any of these issues, it may be time to upgrade.

* Door doesn’t latch properly.

* The latch is hard to operate and get open.

Types of Latches

There are a couple of basic types of screen door latch assemblies that are in common use today. The one you choose will depend entirely upon what best suits you.

* Thumb latch – This type features a handle that you would grasp, and you would press the button in with your thumb to get the door open. This type is very common and more susceptible to failure as springs wear and become weakened with use.

* Door knob style – You grasp the handle and turn, just as you would any other doorknob, to get the door open. These have internal springs as well but for some reason they don’t seem to be as susceptible to failure as the thumb latch type.

Different Styles

You can find a screen door latch in literally hundreds of different styles. The only real limitation to this is the type of screen door that you have, and then some simple modifications, you can overcome even those limitations. Other than that, you want to choose a style that “fits” the outdoor style of your home and not clash with it. These styles include latches that are constructed of brass, aluminum, or other types of metal and the design can be something from basic to ornate.

Other Considerations

Another aspect that you may want to consider when you buy your new screen door latch, is whether or not you want one that is lockable. These types of latches can offer a bit more security for those who are security conscious, not to mention the added safety factor that you get when you have children in the home.

Super Screen is the newest technology available in protection for pool, patio or porch outdoor casual living. Super Screen is the perfect choice for the homeowner who demands the very best in family enjoyment and safety outdoors while providing a high-quality, long-lasting home improvement investment.

Low Maintenance:

Super Screen creates an outdoor fabric enclosure that is superior to that of today’s fiberglass screen fabrics. This new technology is setting a new durability standard for outdoor screen - – for increased strength, stability against deterioration from exposure to the sun, and tear resistance. Combined with a previously unavailable Ten-Year Limited Warranty, you have an investment that will last and last – with fewer repairs, less maintenance and big savings in potential replacement costs.

Long Lasting Screen:

Until now, screen fabrics for outdoor enclosures have been limited in strength and durability, needing replacement in only a few years due to puncture, tearing or breakdown from exposure to the sun. The fiberglass screen material available today can become hard and brittle within 3 to 4 years, to the point it can be easily damaged by pets, flying objects (like a golf ball) or children at play. Within 6 to 7 years, with deterioration, a strong gust of wind can tear fiberglass screen to shreds.

Extrusion Coated Super Screen Outlasts Fiberglass:

It provides the homeowner many years of worry-free durability and protection, by incorporating superior tear resistance and tensile strength. Super Screens advanced polymer formula defies deterioration. In a simulated seven-year weathering test, Super Screen lost only 1% of its original strength. In fact, it remained 3 times stronger than new fiberglass screen.

Ten (10) Year Limited Warranty:

Super Screen last a minimum of seven years longer than the leading fiberglass screen. Super Screen screening fabric exceeds the requirements of Section 553.73 of the Florida Building Code. Super Screen is the new generation of outdoor screen is guaranteed to last.

Durability:

This new fabric provides more than just a “good enough” screen. It provides insect and pest protection, privacy, safety, and debris control. Super Screen offers the homeowner extended durability and protection by incorporating superior tear resistance and tensile strength. It gives the homeowner a quality investment and trouble-free enjoyment, with lasting aesthetic appeal and low maintenance. Before Super Screen, outdoor screen products only gave customers choices between beneficial characteristics or features. There were no other choices – no protection against punctures, tears or frequent deterioration. Super Screen offers them all – so the most important, benefits of screen protection don’t have to be eliminated.

Mildew Resistant:

Super Screen fabric includes a biocide compound that resists mildew growth, yielding longer lasting beauty from the fabric.

Low Maintenance:

Super Screen creates an outdoor fabric enclosure that is superior to that of today’s fiberglass screen fabrics. This new technology is setting a new durability standard for outdoor screening for increased strength, stability against deterioration from exposure to the sun, and tear resistance. Combined with a previously unavailable Ten-Year Limited Warranty, you have an investment that will last and last – with fewer repairs, less maintenance and big savings in potential replacement costs.

Compare Cost:

Over the life of the fabric, with an unmatched warranty, Super Screen will prove to be a smart, worry free investment. Super Screen has a life expectancy of more than 10 years and is backed by a 10-year limited warranty. The average lifespan of fiberglass fabric is approximately 6 years, and is backed by only a 1-3 year warranty.

Tear and Puncture Resistant:

A combination of superior strength and weight create unmatched durability in Super Screen. At 6.5 oz. per sq. yd., Super Screen is 18% heavier than competitor offerings. Unlike fabric made of dip-coated fiberglass, Super Screen fabric utilizes an extrusion-coated polyester core yarn, which results in superior tear and tensile strength that is 300% stronger than competitive offerings* and extended life of the product. These features translate into a fabric highly resistant to punctures and tears, caused by falling debris and pet or pest damage, * Strengths are industry-established measures for the amount of force required to tear both damaged and undamaged textile products. The polymer and polyester properties of Super Screen defy deterioration. In a simulated seven-year weathering test, Super Screen lost only 1% of its original strength. It remained 3 times stronger than fiberglass screen.

Stability from UV Damage:

The UV tolerant properties of Super Screen reveal themselves in the form of unsurpassed color retention, longevity, and filtering characteristics. With Super Screen, extended exposure to the sun will not result in the bleaching, flaking, and fading, like other screens. Fiberglass screen tends to get brittle with age and sun exposure, while Super Screen is virtually unaffected – which means it will look newer longer and save on maintenance.
