Garage Screen Door

The garage screen door has the ability to turn your entire garage into a screened-in porch. The garage screen is simple to install and can be removed when not in use. This is a great benefit in cold climates where the winter weather can quickly ruin a traditional screen porch.

These types of screens are also great for cottages for the same reason. They can be removed and stored away and reinstalled when the warm weather returns

The garage screen door come in two different styles. "Florida" screens rely on a velcro strip that is attached in front of the garage door and around the garage door frame. This strip remains in place and does not interfere with the operation of the garage door.

To install the screen, the garage door is fully opened and the screen is hung from the velcro strip all around the opening. It takes only a few minutes to completely hang the screen.

A long piece of plastic conduit slipped into the bottom of the screen keeps the screen cloth smooth and tight. Simple flap doors allow people to pass through the screen while still keeping the bugs out.

Other styles of garage screen are designed to be retractable like a huge window blind. A roller is installed just above the existing garage door, and the screen drops down between the garage door tracks and the inside wall. These can even be motorized just like the garage door. At this point the garage screen is becoming almost as expensive as the garage door itself.

These types of screens are best installed by a professional garage door installer, because they use the same torsion spring mechanism your garage door uses and these springs can be dangerous if you have never installed them before.

The screens can even be custom printed with the stars and stripes, marine corps emblems as a great way to show your patriotism. Sure beats painting the garage door.

With the screen installed your garage becomes a new barbecue area, a porch to relax on or a safe play area for your children. The screen also allows the garage to be used as a work area late into the night without fear of mosquitoes interfering with painting, staining or hobby projects.
