A screen door should swing smooth, latch tight, and keep bugs out without dragging on the threshold. Arlington Screens handles screen door installation and repair in Arlington, TX, including hinge, closer, latch, and screen replacement to get your entry working like it should.
Every screen door job starts with fit and structure. We check the door opening for square, plumb, and level, measure the slab and frame, and inspect jambs, brickmold, and thresholds for rot, loose fasteners, or paint buildup that causes binding. For repairs, we diagnose the real failure point, worn hinges, stripped screw holes, bent closer arms, sagging corners, or a twisted frame, then recommend the most cost-effective fix. When installation is the right call, we verify hand-swing, clearance, and latch alignment before we ever set hardware.
North Texas heat, wind, and daily use can pull a screen door out of alignment fast, especially at high-traffic entries and patio doors. We tune the swing so the door closes without slamming, set the pneumatic or hydraulic closer for consistent speed, and align the strike and latch so it catches cleanly. If the screen is torn or loose, we can re-screen with fiberglass mesh for everyday durability or upgrade to pet-resistant mesh for claw and impact resistance. We also address squeaks, rubbing, and light gaps with proper hinge shimming, corner adjustments, and threshold clearance so the finished door feels solid.
Arlington customers choose us because we treat a screen door like a functional exterior component, not a quick patch. Licensed and insured, we bring the right tools and hardware for clean results, drill/driver, levels, hinge shims, quality fasteners, and replacement closers, handlesets, and rollers when needed. You get clear options, repair versus replace, mesh type, closer type, and hardware upgrades, plus a written estimate so you can decide without pressure. Our goal is a door that closes straight, latches on the first try, and stays that way.
Before we wrap up, we do a full walkthrough and function test. We confirm smooth open and close, consistent self-close, proper latch engagement, and even reveals around the frame, then verify the screen is tight and the frame is secure. You will know what was adjusted or replaced, how to operate the closer, and what simple maintenance helps the door last longer. The end result is a screen door that looks clean, works quietly, and helps keep your home or business comfortable and pest-free.
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.
If your screen door drags, won’t latch, slams shut, or has a torn screen, Arlington Screens can help. We install new screen doors and repair existing units for homes and businesses, focusing on proper fit, reliable hardware, and a tight, long-lasting screen. Many problems come down to alignment and worn parts, not the entire door, so we start with careful measurements and a practical plan. Serving Arlington since 2015, we provide a free written estimate so you know the scope and cost before work begins.
A properly working screen door depends on the opening being square and the door being set up with the right clearances. We check hinge-side fasteners, jamb condition, threshold height, and frame twist, then correct binding with hinge shims, screw-hole reinforcement, and hardware replacement where needed. When the screen is the issue, we remove the spline, install new mesh, and re-spline for an even, drum-tight finish that resists wrinkles and pull-out. If you need more durability, we can discuss pet-resistant mesh and hardware upgrades designed for heavier daily traffic.
For installation, we confirm hand-swing and measure the opening so the door fits cleanly without rubbing the brickmold or threshold. We set hinges straight, align the latch and strike for a positive catch, and adjust the closer so the door shuts consistently without bouncing. Small details matter, including corner alignment, fastener selection, and sealing gaps that let insects in.
