If your dog claws, your cat climbs, or your screen door gets daily abuse, a standard fiberglass mesh will not last. Arlington Screens installs and repairs pet screen using heavy-duty vinyl-coated polyester, upgraded spline, and tight, even tension so your openings stay screened and usable.
Every pet screen job starts with a quick inspection of the frame, corners, and screen channel so we know what will hold tension long-term. We remove failed mesh, pull old spline, clean the groove, and check for bent rails, loose corner keys, or stripped handle hardware on screen doors. If the frame is out of square or the channel is damaged, we recommend the right fix first, such as corner reinforcement, new track rollers, or a replacement screen door kit, because even the best mesh fails in a weak frame. Pet screen is then measured and cut with proper overlap, staged clean, and kept free of grit that can telegraph through the mesh.
North Texas sun and heat can dry out spline and accelerate mesh fatigue, especially on west-facing patios and heavily used door openings. We match mesh and spline to the application, typically pet-resistant vinyl-coated polyester in a tight weave, installed with fresh spline sized to the frame channel for a firm lock. Tension is set evenly with a spline roller so the panel sits flat without bowing the frame or leaving loose areas where claws can grab. Where needed, we also replace worn door closers, adjust latch alignment, and tune rollers so the door glides and seals cleanly, which helps the screen last longer.
Arlington customers choose us because we treat pet screen as a system, not just a mesh swap. You get clear options based on how your pets use the opening, from repairs in existing aluminum frames to full rescreens on patio doors, pool enclosures, and porch panels. We bring the right materials and tools for consistent results, including quality pet-resistant mesh, new spline, and screening rollers that set uniform pressure. Serving Arlington since 2015, we show up on schedule, protect the work area, and provide a free written estimate before we start.
Before we wrap up, we walk the opening with you and check fit, tension, and operation. On doors, we confirm the latch engages, the sweep clears the threshold, rollers track straight, and the screen panel sits tight in the frame with clean edges and no bulges. We also point out any frame issues we can address next, such as damaged tracks, bent frames, or worn hardware that can shorten screen life. You leave with a sturdier pet screen, smoother door operation, and straightforward care tips, like keeping nails trimmed and rinsing dust from the mesh to maintain airflow.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after reviewing your project details and measuring on site when needed.
Yes. We rescreen torn panels, replace spline, straighten or replace bent frames when possible, and service screen door hardware like rollers, hinges, and latches.
We build and repair screen porches, patio enclosures, pool and lanai screening, and screened entry systems. We can also replace doors and upgrade hardware for smoother operation.
Timing depends on the number of panels, frame condition, and access. Many small repairs can be completed quickly once materials are confirmed, while larger enclosures require measuring, fabrication, and scheduled installation.
Usually, yes. We match mesh color and openness as closely as possible and use the correct spline size for the existing frame so the finished panels look uniform.
Pet screen is built for real wear, claws at the bottom rail, pushing noses, and constant traffic through screen doors and patio openings. Arlington Screens installs and repairs pet screen using heavy-duty vinyl-coated polyester mesh that stands up better than standard fiberglass, with fresh spline and proper tension so the panel stays tight. Whether you need a single screen door rescreen or multiple panels on a porch enclosure, we size the mesh to the frame and make sure the frame and hardware can support it.
Most “pet screen” calls start after repeated tears at the corners or a blowout along the bottom where pets scratch and push. We remove the damaged mesh, clean the spline groove, and inspect the aluminum frame for racking, bent rails, or cracked corners. If the frame is compromised, we explain repair versus replacement so you do not pay to install premium mesh into a frame that will not hold. Then we install pet-resistant mesh and new spline sized to the channel, using a spline roller to set consistent pressure for a clean, flat finish.
Pet screen works best when the door operates correctly. On screen doors, we can replace worn rollers, square up the panel in the track, and align the latch so the door closes without slamming or dragging. For porch and patio panels, we confirm the frame is secure and the screen sits tight with no loose edges pets can catch. If you want added protection, we can discuss kick-plate options, tighter bottom clearances, and hardware upgrades that reduce stress on the screen.
