Can't get the door back on

Question:

We had our screen door re-screened a few weeks ago. When I pulled it out to take it to the store, I really had to yank at it to get it out of it's runners. Once we got it back, I had the same problem getting back in place. Today, it came off when my wife tried to open it.

There are two "screws" at the top and bottom which seem to have something to do with recessing the wheels. Even when they're all the way recessed into the door frame. I'm still having a problem getting it back in.

Is there something I'm overlooking when I take it off and put it on?

The screws you mentioned control the height of the rollers. Usually you release the screws so the rollers have more play so that its easier to pull the door out of the tracks.

Once the door is back in, you adjust the screws to raise the door and get it rolling nicely.
