The process of installing a magnetic screen is quick and straightforward. Take your time putting the mesh together and measuring everything. The magnetic screen door’s magnetic strips allow you to quickly enter and exit without bothering to open or shut a door.

Getting Ready for The Installation

Place the screen door with magnets on the ground and spread it out. Lay the magnetic screen door out on the ground or a big, flat surface. Ensure that the magnets are centered. The top of the magnetic screen door will have a bigger space between the magnets and the curtains than the bottom.

Make Sure the Magnets Are Symmetrically Aligned

Open and close the magnets down the middle of the screen door to discover if they attract. Make sure that each set of magnets is evenly spaced. If the magnets are not symmetrical, a gap in your door mesh may form, allowing bugs to enter your home.

Attach The Magnetic Door Mesh to The Door

Allow the door frame to air dry after wiping it down. Wipe any filth from the surface of your door frame using a clean, moist cloth. Grime might make it difficult for the adhesive strips to attach to the door frame. Allow for natural drying of the structure before installing the magnetic screen door.

To Decide How High to Hang the Screen, Measure The Door’s Height

Measure the height of the door frame using a measuring tape. Calculate whether or not the mesh will drag on the ground, taking into account the length of the magnetic screen door. Mark the spot where the mesh should be hung to avoid touching the ground with a pencil.

Mark The Midway Point On the Door by Measuring Its Width

Measure the width of your doorframe using a measuring tape. Take note of that dimension and divide it in half to get the door’s center. Using a pencil, mark the middle point.

Attach The Magnetic Screen Door’s Top and Middle Sections First

Remove the adhesive strips from the midway point on top of your magnetic screen door and discard the backings. Match the top of the mesh to the line you drew on the top of the door frame. Connect the mesh to the frame with this section.

Attach The Rest of the Screen to The Frame of Your Door

Continue around the perimeter of the door after attaching the top half of your magnetic screen door. Begin at the top of the magnetic screen door and work your way outwards, first to one side, then the other. Continue along either side of the door frame, ensuring that the mesh is uniformly distributed.

Use Tacks to Reinforce the Mesh to Your Door Frame

Tacks around the perimeter of the door frame can be used to reinforce the screen door with magnets for increased security. Put the nails through the mesh, above or below the adhesive strips. Tack the tacks into the wooden frame with your fingers.

Put The Screen Door to the test

Walkthrough the center of your magnetic screen door screen multiple times to test it. The magnets should split apart as you go through them and close back together after leaving the doorway. If the screen does not function properly, you may need to reinstall it, shifting the panels closer or farther apart as needed.
