Is your screen door letting mosquitos in? Time to fix the screen.

Our screen door was initially compromised when our cat gouged holes through it. As months passed & kids pushing on it, the screen finally gave out & I ended up ripping it out. When the screen was in, there was a refreshing cross-breeze.. now without it & the fact that hydro is so high I think it's time I took matters into my own hands.

Attempt #1

I took a drive up to the hardware store & purchased a black, fibreglass roll of screen, a ribbed spline & a tool for pushing the spline into the groove of the door. Now the fun part... I asked my brother-inlaw how he fixed his. He told me, "I just dropped it off at the hardware store & they fixed it for me." That will be my last resort.

I think that I will start off with pictures.

Home Improvements

Overall I completed the task at hand in 2 attempts. The 1st attempt was halted when I ripped the screen in one spot with the spline tool. I rotated the screen a quarter turn & was able to avoid the damaged part.
