Screen Door Repair

Most screen door repair is a re-screen and a roller adjustment. Mesh pulls out of the spline groove, corner rollers seize, handles snap, and the frame goes slightly out of square — all quick fixes with the right tools, all miserable jobs without them.

We re-spline torn mesh, straighten bowed frames, replace corner keys, swap rollers, and fit new handles and latches. We carry fiberglass, aluminium, pet-resistant, and solar-screen mesh, so you can upgrade at the same time rather than putting the same mesh back in.

Sliding Screen Door Repair

Sliding screen doors fail at the rollers and the track long before the mesh gives out. When the door jumps, drags, or refuses to stay in the track, it’s usually seized corner rollers or a track that’s been stepped on. We replace the rollers, straighten or replace the track, and set the height so the door runs level.

Screen Door Handle Replacement

A snapped handle or a latch that no longer catches makes an otherwise fine door unusable. We replace handles, latches, keepers, and closers on sliding and hinged screen doors with hardware matched to the frame.

Screen Door Installation

Screen door installation is straightforward when the opening is right and frustrating when it isn’t — which is why we measure the opening rather than assuming a standard size. We install hinged aluminium and wood screen doors on entry openings, sliding screens on patio door tracks, and retractable cassette systems where you want the screen out of sight when it isn’t needed.

Every installation includes a square-and-level check, closer adjustment, and a latch that actually catches on the first try.

Retractable Screen Door Installation

A retractable screen door rolls into a slim side cassette and disappears when you don’t want it, which suits front entries and openings where a permanent screen would look wrong. We install retractable systems on single doors, French pairs, and wide patio openings, and set the tension so the screen retracts smoothly instead of snapping back.

Screen Door Replacement

Once a screen frame has bowed, corroded, or lost its corners, re-screening it is throwing good money after bad — the mesh will simply pull out again. Screen door replacement gives you a square frame, new rollers or hinges, and mesh that stays tight.

We replace like for like, or upgrade you to a heavier frame, pet-resistant mesh, or a retractable system while we’re there.

Sliding Screen Door Replacement

Sliding screen doors take the most abuse of any screen in the house — pets, kids, patio furniture, and wind. When the frame has bowed enough that the rollers won’t stay in the track, we build or supply a replacement panel sized to your existing track and fit it the same visit.

Signs Your Screen Door Needs Replacing

  • Mesh has pulled out of the spline groove in more than one place
  • The frame is visibly bowed, twisted, or missing corner keys
  • The door jumps the track or won’t stay on its rollers
  • Rust, corrosion, or split welds at the corners
  • The latch no longer lines up with the keeper
  • You’ve re-screened it once already and it’s torn again

How We Work

  1. Call and describe the door. Sliding, hinged, or retractable — it changes what we bring.
  2. Measure and assess. We check the frame for square, the track for damage, and the mesh for what caused the tear.
  3. Re-screen, repair, or replace. Nearly all screen door work is completed on the first visit.
  4. Glide and latch test. The door has to run smoothly and catch cleanly before we call it done.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a torn screen be re-meshed, or does the whole door need replacing?

If the frame is straight and the corners are solid, re-screening is the right fix and takes under an hour. A bowed or corroded frame won’t hold new mesh under tension, and replacement is the better call.

What’s the most durable screen mesh?

Pet-resistant mesh is several times tougher than standard fiberglass and worth it in any house with dogs or cats. Solar screen mesh cuts heat and glare on sun-facing openings.

Can you fit a screen door to a door that never had one?

Usually, yes. We measure the opening, check the trim depth and swing clearance, and fit either a hinged screen door or a retractable cassette depending on what the opening allows.

Why does my sliding screen door keep coming off the track?

Almost always worn or seized corner rollers, a bent track, or a frame that’s gone out of square. All three are repairable — we replace the rollers, straighten the track, and reset the height.
