![]() ![]() When installing the screen an extra set of hands is helpful to pop the guide wheels in at the bottom-remember top of the screen in first on installation, bottom out first on removal. I was able to get a nice tight-fitting screen on the first try. Keep the spline as one piece and go all the way around the frame-I kept a little bit of tension on the screen when installing with one hand as I used the other to roll the spline into place. The installation of the screen itself is something I had never done before and it actually turned out to be quite easy (screen installation tool (spline roller) is included in the box). Dry fit is a must before installing the screen, make sure it fits now. Assembly was a breeze-ensure the corners pull snugly together. I cut the aluminum rails with my Miter Saw-no problem at all. ![]() I used a piece of masking tape to mark my cut to make it easier to see. I luckily had the old screen door and was able to measure against it-I ended up taking or 3 ¼” not 3 1/2” as per the instructions-3 ½” probably would have fit ok, but I decided to err on the side of caution-easier to take another cut if required than ruin it by taking too much. On that note, I really like the scored lines on the rubber gasket to give you a nice straight line to trim against and give a professional finished look. The other example would be the need to trim the rubber vertical gasket in the areas of the patio door window frame where it tends to bind up. So perhaps some close-up pictures or an installation video of where exactly to measure would help inexperienced installers. Two examples would be, where exactly to measure the door-cut the door too short & it’s ruined. In terms of the instructions-I feel this is the one place Peak Products could do a little better. The extra rigidity really helps to stop racking in the door which can lead to it jumping off the tracks. The robust extruded aluminum railing and separate extruded aluminum corner brackets really give this door a solid feeling compared to my old screen door with mitered corners and thinner railings. This screen door is substantially stronger than my screen door that came with my patio door. ![]() Great Quality!
