Wooden screen door
Comments (6)Wooden screen doors used to be commonplace and readily available. No more. If you have found a source, and a design that you like, I say go for it. Just be sure to prime it with something that is oil based and formulated to soak in and protect the wood from weather. Its a good idea to install a metal diagonal brace at the time of installation, even though the door doesn't need it. This will keep the door from sagging, and loosening in the corners. Be sure to install the chain & spring assembly that will prevent the door from opening too far. Otherwise, it could get caught by the wind when you are not home, and self-destruct in a few hours....See MoreScreenroom built out of wooden screen doors?
Comments (4)I'm designing something similar for my brother, except he's using the framed screen panels from Lowes (I think they're around $40 per).

Aesthetically, I'd advise against all the screen doors. I have a client that built their sunroom with all sliding glass doors instead of windows because they got a good deal. It looks like they got a good deal on a lot of sliders and didn't care how it looked, you know? Dave...See MoreNew wood screen door - prevent sagging

Comments (1)Paint screen door the same on both sides. An aside: you might consider painting the screen exterior the same color as the front door. Otherwise you wind up with a “frame” around the door and visually, the door looks smaller. Additionally, the screen has vertical and horizontal stretches, so you gorgeous front door will be divided up with a darker color....See MoreBunny
