Door problems in Dadeville tend to sort into two groups: older homes where the frames and jambs have taken decades of weather, and newer builds where the hardware was the cheapest part of the package and has already given up.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Why screen door repair fails in east central Alabama
Spring storm lines come through fast here and put a lot of wind pressure on doors before the rain even starts.
Humidity corrodes the steel components in screen rollers and rusts the tiny springs in adjusters, so screens seize up and drop out of their track.
Grit accumulating in the screen track is the reason most screens get hard to move, and it wears the small plastic rollers far faster than the weight of the panel ever would.
We factor that in on every screen door repair job around the Tallapoosa County Courthouse and the rest of Dadeville.
Local factors we account for in Dadeville: sustained humidity and grit and dust — typical of east central Alabama.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895How we approach screen door repair
- Work out whether it is the screen or the trackA screen that jams is often a track problem. Replacing rollers in a damaged track fixes nothing.
- Assess the frame for squareA racked frame will not sit in the track properly no matter what mesh is in it.
- Match the mesh to the exposureOn a sun-facing opening, standard fibreglass will be brittle within a couple of seasons, so we specify accordingly.
- Rescreen with correct tensionToo tight and the frame bows, too loose and it billows. Even tension is what keeps a screen flat and quiet. In east Alabama we check exposure and seasonal movement together, since most openings here see both and the combination is what causes failures.
- Fit and adjust the rollersSet so the panel rides smoothly and stays captured in the head channel.
- Test the full travelThe door should move with one finger, latch cleanly and stay in the track.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895What affects the cost of screen door repair in Dadeville
We would rather tell you what drives the price than quote a number that turns out to be wrong once we see the door. On a screen door repair job in Dadeville, the main variables are these:
- storm door hardware such as closers and latches
- the mesh type chosen, from standard fiberglass to pet-resistant and solar
- rescreening versus repairing or replacing the frame
- roller and track work in addition to the screen itself
- the size of the panel
Call and describe what the door is doing. In most cases we can tell you over the phone which of those applies to you before anyone drives out to Dadeville.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Screen door repair in Dadeville: questions we get asked
The screen slides hard even though it is not falling out. What is wrong?
Either the rollers have seized or the track is packed with debris. In Dadeville the track collects a surprising amount of grit, and it acts like grinding paste on the rollers.
Do you make custom-size screens?
Yes. Older openings in Dadeville are rarely a stock size, and building a panel to the actual measured opening is the only way to get one that fits and stays in.
My storm door blew open and broke. Can it be repaired?
Usually yes: the closer and its mounting take the damage. We repair the mounting and fit a wind chain so the next gust does not do the same thing.
Is it worth rescreening or should I just buy a new screen door?
Rescreening is far cheaper and the frame is usually fine. New panels only make sense when the frame is bent beyond straightening or the corners are gone.
What mesh should I use if I have dogs?
Pet-resistant mesh, which is a heavier vinyl-coated polyester, and often a pet grille across the lower section. Standard fiberglass will not survive a dog that pushes against it.
My screen mesh has gone brittle and crumbles. What happened?
UV exposure. Screens on the south and west sides of a house in Dadeville take a lot of sun, and standard fiberglass mesh eventually degrades. Solar mesh lasts longer and cuts heat at the same time.
