Measurement requirements
How to measure
Measuring a door for a hinged screen door1:13 · Voice-over and captionsMeasure from outside, between the door jambs at the top, middle and bottom, and from the floor or sill to the top of the frame in three places. Use the smallest of each, measure the handle height, then note the handle side.Read the transcript
How to measure a door opening for a hinged screen door. Take every measurement from outside, and measure the door frame, not the old door.
Measure the width between the door jambs, from the frame on one side to the frame on the other side. Do it at the top, the middle and the bottom.
Use the smallest width: 860 mm.
Now measure the height, from the floor or sill up to the top of the frame, on the left, in the centre and on the right.
Use the smallest height: 2040 mm.
Next, measure your existing door handle height, from the floor or sill to the centre of the handle. Then decide if you want the screen door handle above it or below it.
Now, still outside and facing the door, note the handle side. Here, the handle is on the right and the hinges are on the left.
In our quote form, enter 860 × 2040, a door handle height of 1000 mm, the screen door handle above it, and the handle on the right. If the floor is uneven, add a note.
Scenic Screens. Quality Fabrication. Made to Measure.
Voice-over made with ElevenLabs (elevenlabs.io).
Measure the width of the opening, frame to frame, at the top, middle and bottom.
Measure the height at the left, centre and right.
Use the smallest of each, in millimetres. For doors, working from outside, measure your existing door handle height, decide if the screen door handle goes above or below it, and note the handle side.
Width and height of each openingIn millimetres, the smallest of your three measurements. For French doors and double sliding doors, the full width and the width of each door. For triple sliders, the width and height of each of the two screen doors.
Style, side and door handleSingle hinged, French door, single sliding, double (French) sliding, triple slider or window screen. For doors, the handle side (looking from outside), your existing door handle height, and whether the screen door handle goes above or below it.
Mesh behind the grilleFibreglass is standard. Pet Mesh, Aluminium and SS304 are also available.
Photos to match existing screensIf you're matching other doors or windows, a photo helps.

Both spellings are used for the same thing: an aluminium grille in a diamond pattern with insect mesh behind it.
Can you match my existing diamond grille screens?
Send photos and sizes with your quote request and tell us the frame colour. We'll let you know what we can match before you order.
Which insect mesh goes behind the grille?
Fibreglass is the standard choice. Pet Mesh suits homes with pets, and Aluminium or SS304 stainless give a tougher mesh.
Can I add a pet door?
Yes. Pet doors can be added to diamond grille doors. They come in small, medium or large, in white or black. Tick "Pet door" in the quote form, then choose the size and colour.
