Retractable Screens - Casement Windows

Looking to replace several old roll up screens on our 1927 steel casement windows. You think they'd make stuff to last?

I've seen several makes on the web. Anyone have any recommendations?

Thanks,

New Ext Doors in Window Opening

D

DaveCollins on Apr 24, 2004

I have an existing aluminum window in a brick wall that I plan to replace with a pre-hung steel french doors. The ext. window opening is wider than the new door unit. I plan to fill in this area to each side with bricks removed from below the window. My question is in the planning of this instalation... Should I demo and rough frame the door unit first and brick to this after? Or should I brick to the expected brick opening and use brick mould to finish this? Thanks,

screen door install question

markiz37 on Apr 21, 2004

Hi All, I want to install a screen door... The problem is my entry door has 2 sidelight windows so the brickmold is miles away from where it needs to be for a screen door installation. The entry door itself is hung on a recessed frame with jambs about 4 inches off the brickmold/threshold plane. I could build up the jambs with construction lumber to compensate for the recess but that will be tricky... Or will it? What are my options here? Ways of attaching lumber to jambs?? Maybe a special kit for this? Thanks for all the replies.
