Overview
Built for a door that never stops moving
Screen doors work harder than window screens. They're opened all day, pushed by kids and pets, and hit by the weather. We build ours in strong aluminium frames and fit the mesh that suits how you live.
Tell us the size of your door opening, the style and which side the handle goes, looking from outside. We do the rest in the workshop.
Suitable for
Back and side doors that stay open all summer
Homes with pets (choose Pet Mesh)
Sliding glass doors that need a sliding screen
Replacing a tired old screen door

Measurement requirements
How to measure
Measuring a sliding door for a sliding screen door1:28 · Voice-over and captionsMeasure from outside. Measure the height rail to rail (or to the top of the top track if it has no rail) and the width from the edge of the side cover to the far edge of the mullion, three times each, and use the smallest. Then measure the handle height from the bottom track and note the handle side from outside.Read the transcript
How to measure a sliding door for a sliding screen door. Take every measurement from outside, where the screen door will run.
Start with the height. If your door has a top rail and a bottom rail, measure from the top of the bottom rail to the bottom of the top rail, at both ends and in the middle.
Use the smallest height: 2050 mm.
If your top track has no rail, measure from the top of the bottom rail up to the top of the top track instead, in the same three places. For security door orders, we can supply a rail for you to fit to the top track.
Now the width. Measure from the edge of the side cover, where the screen door closes, to the far edge of the mullion, where the two glass panels meet. Do it at the top, the middle and the bottom.
Use the smallest width: 910 mm.
Next, measure your glass door handle height, from the bottom track to the centre of the handle. Then decide if you want the screen door handle above it or below it.
And note the handle side, looking from outside. Here, it's on the left.
In our quote form, enter 910 × 2050, a door handle height of 1000 mm, the screen door handle below it, and the handle on the left. Add photos of your tracks.
Scenic Screens. Quality Fabrication. Made to Measure.

Measure everything from outside. Hinged door: measure the width between the jambs at the top, middle and bottom, and the height from the floor or sill to the top at the left, centre and right.
Sliding door: measure the height from the top of the bottom rail to the bottom of the top rail (or to the top of the top track if it has no rail), and the width from the edge of the side cover to the far edge of the mullion, where the glass panels meet.
Use the smallest of each, in millimetres. Then measure your existing door handle height (from the floor or sill for hinged doors, from the bottom track for sliding doors), decide if the screen door handle goes above or below it, and note the handle side, looking from outside.
Width and height of each doorIn 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.
Door handle and sideYour existing door handle height in millimetres, whether the screen door handle goes above or below it, and the handle side, looking from outside.
Mesh, colour and add-onsPet Mesh is the popular choice for busy back doors.

What's the difference between opening size and make size?
An opening size is the space the door fits into. A make size is the finished size of the door itself. Most DIY customers send opening sizes and trade customers usually send make sizes. Tell us which you've used and we'll take it from there.
How do I know the handle side?
Stand outside facing the door. The side you want the screen door handle on is your handle side. If you're replacing an old screen door, it's usually the same side as before.
Is Pet Mesh pet-proof?
Pet Mesh is much tougher than standard insect mesh and handles most scratching and pushing. No mesh is completely pet-proof, but Pet Mesh is the best choice for homes with dogs and cats.
Do you install screen doors?
No. We're a fabrication workshop, which keeps the cost down. Many customers fit their own screen doors, or use a local handyman or builder.
