Thank you. I'm in Scotland, and in some areas we have lethal little insects called midges (think tiny, tiny mosquitoes by the million) but we don't have screen doors here. We just don't open doors and windows in midge season. I needed to know how a screen door works because I've only seen them in movies. Now I can build one. Thanks again.
I love the way your aways their for your Mom. It's so lovely it brings tears to my eyes. And maybe slightly a bit envious. I'm sure Grandma Carol will love the screen door! Go RidgeLife ✌
I grew up in a seers in roebuck house. My dad remade a screen door hand drilled no power tools. Took a lot more time, looked exactly like your door brought back lots of memories. God bless you Tim and your family.
I love the old screen doors and how the slam. LOL That's how our parent's knew what we were up to, if we were excited, mad, or whatever! Didn't know that's how you can offset your hinge though. Thanks for the info!
Thank you for this video. I was hung up on the hinges and flipping them to offset was the answer. It worked perfectly and enjoying the nice breeze flowing thru the house.
All of these builds and repair jobs everyone keep showing reminds me of my childhood and working with my Dad. Great memories. Thanks for showing each set of hinges, and how to make the off set hinge. I remember my Dad making the corner braces out of a triangle of wood. And he put two 2×2 side to side right above the halfway point so little hands didn't go through the screen. Lol Love your Beautiful flowers. Thanks for sharing Tim. Stay happy, healthy, hydrated and safe. May God continue to bless you, your family and your adventures.
Good job Brother. Granma Carol's going to love leaving the doors open with the heat coming and the screen doors keeping out the pests. My best to all the family and stay safe on the Ridge
Corner brace/bracket installation should be predrilled and the pilot holes should be drilled angled away from the joint. Thx for the video! Some good advice on some things I didn’t consider
great explanation! I've been screening in a portion of our front porch and my last step is figuring out how to build the door frame and hang the door. This will help!
Thanks for this video! I was lucky and didn't have to cut any edges to fit. I knocked out this project this morning and it looks great with your help. Pretty much had the exact door (but a 32") and hardware. ✌
first of all, I want to say I think this is a great video and you've gone above and beyond here, I got the same kind of door except I think mine is very warped, Even before I hinged it, So I think really the first step should be identifying that your door is straight maybe?
Very important questions. #1 can you recommend any other hardware for locking the inside other then that type of latch? #2 for someone with pets, wanting the air flow and view for the pets, but not wanting them to push it open and get out, can you recommend anything for the outside? Only problem is, I don't want someone messing with it and locking me IN. I hope no one else already asked this, I may not have read enough comments. I LOVE the way you did this. Simply explained. Ive wanted a screen door on my backdoor for 14 years, and this year, I'm doing it myself! Thank you so much for this!
I am making that exact style door for one of my friends. Are the hinges heavy enough for the door? I am so excited I found your video. I gave her the link for the hardware. Thanks!
How do you keep the screen from splitting when you add the spring to the backside of the screen door? It seems like when you drill it you potentially create a tear? Great video THANKS for all the great information!
The screen covers the whole back side (1 solid piece) which you have to drill through the screen in order to attach the eyelet for the spring. Drilling into the screen leads to potential tear… is there a way to prevent that other than being extra careful? And thanks for the quick response before my second comment/questions. Excellent video indeed!
I can't wait to install my screen door. I misplace my screws. I also need to frame my front door. I don't know how to frame it. Now I have to buy shims or ask for some extra hands I need to practice using a drill.
Hi Tim I was wondering I bought a screen wood door from Lowe’s and one side has the wood and the other side is just the screen. The side that is just screen would be turned to inside but where would we drill hole for the spring ? It would be through the screen since the wood frame is only on one side. Is that what you did?
Even if you're very old you can still do it piece of cake, Too many people think it's hard to do and they won't try but shoot I do just about everything .

Not sure if you are the entrepreneur type, but that seems like a wide open market.

Hey. A slide bolt latch may work. Good luck.
@@RidgeLife Thanks so much!
Good morning Tim.
Howdy!
all fancy with the chapters good stuff
Ha! Thanks man!
I am making that exact style door for one of my friends. Are the hinges heavy enough for the door? I am so excited I found your video. I gave her the link for the hardware. Thanks!
We had them on for some time and no sag and work great. Thanks!
Thank you!!😊
Welcome!
Nice job 😂🎉
Thanks You!!
Wow, thank you for this video!
18:07 A well-earned nap =D
My pleasure! Thank you!
Thanks for reminding me to put a spring on my chicken coop run door
Ha! Oh yeah!
Hey buddy! 👋
Howdy man!
NICE😊👍🏼✌🏼🇺🇸
Thx!
good job
Thanks!
Great job! Love that sound of the screen door closing!
Me too! Thx!
Looks good brother 👊👍 FJB
Thanks 👍
Add a self closer so that way it doesn’t slam and they have inside handles that have a locking mechanism at the bottom
But the slam is classic! Ha! Thx!
Tim I have them on mine, nothing says country like a old screen door., love your videos,
I agree! Thanks.
I could use a closer look at the hinge install.
Sorry for that.
👍
Thanks!
How do you keep the screen from splitting when you add the spring to the backside of the screen door?
It seems like when you drill it you potentially create a tear?
Great video THANKS for all the great information!
The spring is only on the wood cross bar. Doesn’t get near the screen.
The screen covers the whole back side (1 solid piece) which you have to drill through the screen in order to attach the eyelet for the spring. Drilling into the screen leads to potential tear… is there a way to prevent that other than being extra careful?
And thanks for the quick response before my second comment/questions.
Excellent video indeed!
@@hshadowens9695 you are so right! I had to go look. We haven’t had any issues but I bet a fender washer would help with any stress or tearing.
We may need to mount our screen door on top of the door casing. How would we set hinge for that?? Thanks
Ooh sorry I would have to see it first.
I can't wait to install my screen door. I misplace my screws. I also need to frame my front door.
I don't know how to frame it. Now I have to buy shims or ask for some extra hands
I need to practice using a drill.
Good luck!
it was an inch short, and I cut it three times, but it was still too short, , , I should have used a wood stretcher.
Ouch!
Hi Tim I was wondering I bought a screen wood door from Lowe’s and one side has the wood and the other side is just the screen. The side that is just screen would be turned to inside but where would we drill hole for the spring ? It would be through the screen since the wood frame is only on one side. Is that what you did?
Yes that’s what I did!
@@RidgeLife thanks
Key info missing, such as are there hinges for different size offsets or just quarter inch?
Ooh! Don’t know. I didn’t see options like that when I ordered them. They fit great!
A $12.00 magic mesh is looking better/easier the longer this video goes on
Give it a go!
Maybe a dumb question but the top or bottom of the hinge hitting at 8”?
Top of the hinge to top and bottom of door 8".
"Guys, if I can do it, so can you." Girls can do it, too! Thanks for the guidance.
Absolutely!
@@RidgeLife need to know your precise whereabouts on 1.6.2021, sir?
Good video except I've done all those things before and rescreened doors and windows
Oh yeah! Fun to do yourself!
Even if you're very old you can still do it piece of cake, Too many people think it's hard to do and they won't try but shoot I do just about everything .
Are these the Lowe's doors and install kits?
The doors are from Lowe’s. The hardware kit I got on Amazon. The link is in the description of the video.
1st
Good looking porch
Thanks man!
It looks like you cannot paint the back of these doors, is that correct?
It's wood on both sides. Not sure why you couldn't paint them. We stained ours.
Why didn't the hinges go inside the jamb?
The door has an offset jam.
Why were offsets needed?
Due to the door facing depth.
They will have the V ready for kids 5 n under, by..guess when..June 21. Wow. 21,22
Will you give up the forecasting if the 21st comes and goes?
@@RidgeLife I really think this is it, but I'm going to keep watching dates if it's not. That's what the Bible tells us to do.
@@rayhuber3411 where does it say to check dates for the rapture?
@@RidgeLife Mathew 24:43-47
Luke 12:38
???I HAVE 6 GRAND CHILDREN, SO DO YOU THINK I NEED 3 HINGES???
Ha! Maybe four!!!
😢 I can’t deal with the heavy breathing 😮💨
Oops! Sorry.
So then don’t watch the video? The fact you needed to comment this is giving foreskin energy
Great video! Do you have an Instagram account?
Hey! Naw not right now. Thx!
@@RidgeLife Bummer! I'll enjoy your TH-cam channel for now.
