How To Repair A Screen Door

Bill Steinhauser shows us now to replace the screen in our screen door the DIY way.

[@manamicute1]

Thank you for saving us over $200! We didn’t know that we can replace mesh of the screen.
We went Ace hardware and get 3things. Spline, mesh, and a roller less than 30 bucks and replaced out mesh of the screen slide in 30 min! 😊

Watched several videos by far this the best!

[@farmface]

Good instructions, thank you Nosferatu.

[@BenRidgeCO]

Just note, when he said right, left, then top, bottom, they were looking at it horizontally. So really they did the top of the door first, then the bottom, then right and left.

Great video. I was able to replace my screen tonight after on my my kids friends ran through and ripped the old one. It was so easy and the screen ended up being pretty tight. Thanks a lot!

[@jamiwalker9730]

Thanks for the vid. When I did them for an apartment complex I worked at I always had the problem of it wrinkling up because I started and went all the way around instead of left right then top and bottom. Also useful rolling the screen in before splining it. Excellent and now I feel like a pro!

[@Saphira20006]

Excellent quality. Very easy to assemble.

[@JasonAndreas44]

Super useful - thank you!!!! (how can 36 people give this a thumbs down?)

Those people are the landlords that wanted to keep their tenants safety deposit’s.

[@langleytrinity]

this was great. I'm not super handy but this was clear and to the point. thank you

[@abigailclark1878]

Can you reuse the spline on the original screen door?

[@justinjames3028]

Dude you saved me $100. Thank you!

[@quetzal996]

This video was very helpful.

[@mattjeffsdpt]

These guys start with the door removed. Removing the door would be helpful. The wheels involved don't always cooperate.

[@nanettesage1112]

Our local Ace Hardware said that Ace does not offer Screen Repair.
They said that I have to purchase all the materials and do it myself.
So this video will come in handy.

[@skaterangelkull]

Thank you for this video and I didn't know there's a pet screen so im going to look that up since my Chihuahua turns into the fucking Hulk when he feels like it.

[@dannydunne6084]

Gosh. Do you have to cuss about it?

[@mayrapadilla2768]

Super helpful 😊

[@mwa1252]

Good instruction thanks. I'm a little unclear on how many pieces you cut the spline. You said to do it in "two "L" shapes but in the video it looks like you did one long side and then cut it.

[@tessabonman4700]

Thank you for the Lesson.

[@josephnorcalusa1710]

helpful information, thank you for sharing !!!

[@scottcrawley450]

Thanks cobber, great help

[@aaronpoisson]

What tools do I need? I have razor and screw drivers, but what’s the pizza-cutter tool called? My puppy was outside in back yard and I close the door. His separation anxiety kicked in and he tore-up my screen door pretty good and I need to repair it.

[@Frank-dq4xj]

Any thoughts on how to select the proper size spline before you take apart the door?

[@mesausa]

It says "repair" but that was a full replacement. Should I replace this whole thing whenever there is a rip of 1" or 2"?! Just wondering!

[@rachelhollar4419]

They sell repair tape. That's what I got for the small spots and it works pretty well.

[@kathryncarey5557]

You can buy screen patches

[@Mikey-ym6ok]

Are there other kind of screen doors that don’t have this kind of installation? Installing the screen makes it rip and makes it pretty much useless

[@beccablueeyes99]

My window has a wooden frame and I can't to this for a screen repair. It's held between the 2 wooden frames, it doesn't have a spline.

[@twisto]

Why not reuse the spline?

[@carletonhoffman]

the screen on the first side just pulls out as i try to roll the second side into place. nothing ever works for me.

[@matthewanacleto7885]

You make removing the spline easy, it's the hardest part! Great misrepresentation.

[@Svi3806]

Do not preROLL if your have sharp roller. You’re going to slit the screen and start over again

[@tayhovah]

All I heard was, "Ace Hardware will do it for $20."

[@jeannakroenke5881]

good for all

[@landlord227]

Thank for the video but please slow it down. Certain instructions presented could have included more detail.

[@timothyyhtomit]

Can I use a pizza cutter?

[@m.danonbains3423]

What was the tool he used that looked like a pizza cutter?

[@MrPaevo]

Spline tool.

[@aldelgado9343]

a smile would be usefull ace hardware guy

[@Mikey-ym6ok]

Who the f cares? I didn’t come here to see people smiling. This is business.

[@rgreen5358]

Might want to emphasize that you also removed the screen door to do this- another not insignificant project

[@Saturn-Matrix]

4 screws, oh the humanity

[@bjmcmahon722]

@@Saturn-Matrix lol...

[@johncollins8304]

Nah, that 's not a repair, it's a replacement. Pfff. I want to REPAIR the split.

[@MysLed]

WTF, only $20!!! For just the 1 screen? He said that like it was just some change.

[@Jimmyjimjim]

I just followed this video to replace my screen door mesh for $9 with a kit from amazon

[@likestoospooge]

Wait. I'm confused. Does $20 sound like a lot to you?

[@pc11us]

Remember he had to purchase the tools the screen and the spine

[@alyssahardbarger7973]

When a new screen door is over $100

[@jamiwalker9730]

Its called saving something for cheaper than replacing. Kinda like relaxing one broken brick in a wall as to replacing the whole wall. Geez y'all guys no offense need to learn to be more handy lmao

[@zapprodd9382]

WAY TO MUCH OF A HASSLE USE SCREEN TAPE
