That hole in your sliding screen door didn't matter much during the winter months. But now that spring is approaching, you'll want to get it fixed to keep the bugs out of the house on those beautiful April days. Sure, we know that fixing the screen is yet another chore on the dreaded to-do list, one that can be very frustrating. However, with the help of Expert Village, you will realize just how easy this job can be.

In this free diy home maintenance video series, you will learn how to fix a sliding screen door. Our renovation expert and experienced home repair professional will demonstrate how to remove the door from the track and how to remove the screen mesh. You will then measure the frame to figure out how much replacement screen you need. In order to keep the screen in place, you will need to purchase spline, which is a flexible strip of wire which you insert at the seams of the screen door to keep the mesh in place. Our expert will also show you how to put the screen door back onto the track and adjust the wheels so it slides smoothly.
