I’m going to be bold here and assume most everyone reading this post has a broom and screwdriver. The total cost of this project if you have to buy everything is $22.66. This tutorial also shares how to clean and tune the door so that it will run smoothly. It’s not hard and takes less time than brushing your teeth (which should be 2 minutes, lol). Have you ever wondered how to remove your sliding patio screen door? Every night when we sit down for dinner the spiders and all their tiny legged buddies stare back at us from their living quarters. My wife hates how cobwebs and bugs seem to like congregating between the sliding screen door and the sliding patio doors. This drives me nutty and we don’t even use our screen door that much. silicone/caulk for weather, done deal.Įdited by 51 AD 3100 on 09-26-20 04:35 AM.How frustrating is it when your sliding screen door just won’t budge? New doors are vinyl framed, fasten through the jambs to solid framing with 3 inch screws and a trim plug inserted to hide the screw heads.
do a dry fit first, then put 2 parallel beads of silicone down before final set,making sure the bottom corners get a little more. make sure the sill/sub floor is not rotted out, r/r as nec. If it was me i'd take the siding back to expose the doors nail flange and remove it reverse of how it was installed. if you have a smaller new door you'll have to find some siding to match what you have to blend back in or just go get some wide ext trim to fill the gap. If the new door is slightly larger than the old, the better. if you do find one the exact same, go buy a lottery ticket. first thing is the old door and any door you buy now to replace it are most likely not the same dimensions. done countless patio doors in my day, new and replacements.

And also, it seems like I'm going to have to get new siding J channel since I'm going from no brick mold currently to brick mold with the new door. I'm thinking if I install the door with the brick mold not yet attached, 1) I can tilt into position from the inside and 2) I can more accurately measure (after the door is installed) how far back I need to cut the siding and foam sheet to make room for the brick mold. And if I extend the jamb, I would want to do it on the exterior since the threshold doesn't need to be bumped out. Your diagram pretty much nails it, except for the nailing flange and the brick mold wouldn't be sticking out past the J channel it would be 3/4" below flush with the J channel because of the extra wall thickness with the foam board. The door I'm replacing has a nailing flange, but not the new. This new replacement door doesn't have a nailing flange.
