This was way better than the how-to videos posted by the companies that make the screens. Thank you!

[@brittanyperala1992]

Thank you!

[@carolleroy448]

I used a tension rod Folded extra over made a pocket to slide rod through and tacks the the sides worked great for kids and dogs😅

[@ManicMayhem13]

Agreed!

[@rswow]

@@carolleroy448 I bought an 83" high screen, needs to go on a 79.5" metal frame opening. Wondering how to do this, or should I just cut it...

[@FrederickIngraham-yq4sz]

Very cool, got mine..it will be way better than my rolling screen door falling off the track every time its pulled.👍

[@deniseunknown4576]

This is fantastic. My Velcro came in sections, not a strip. And the instructions were a bit confusing. I appreciate those who make up KZbin University. They make my life so much easier. Thank you so much for taking the time to create these videos for us.

[@j.mcconnell3863]

I would listen to Chris give instructions on anything 🙌🏻 I’m a huge fan

[@voiceoverguyharris]

You need to review more products, this was honest and real, thank you.

[@cherrydaltonfinch217]

Thanks to your great video... I managed to install mine with ease. So thank you kindly for taking the time to share. 😊. I just wanted to say how beautiful the filigree iron work on your front porch looks. So pretty, I wish we could get such decorations over in the UK 😊

[@TheJbull40]

I don’t need one of these but I watched anyway. I like this man’s way of explaining his how to videos. I saw his toilet flapper video, also for no reason, and his 2” blind fix video which is the one that helped me fix my blinds. Straight and to the point with no BS comedy routine. I like that! 👍🏼

[@deltalima5806]

Thanks for posting this Chris. Does the job and much cheaper than an actual door when you really don't need one.

[@tracyreifkind3810]

Folding the extra over on the sides was brilliant!!!! After I ordered one (and had it hanging around uninstalled for almost 2 months), I realized our back door is not as wide as the front door.....wondering what to do? And then you solved the problem perfectly! Thank you so much for the video! Also, applies the velcro to the door frame, as you demonstrated, instead of to the screen door, then apply it all to the frame like the company instructions suggested. Much better idea!

[@TinaRice4]

It really helps to see it being installed! You dog is ADORABLE!!! 🐾💗🐾

[@lucyexcellentconsultingser2847]

I wish the instructions where as simple as your video. Thank you immensely for saving me today.

[@dgafkween_909]

This was an accidental view trying to watch another video and SOOO happy I watch this one! Made my day after work and feel better the route I was going to be taking

[@MsThaddeus]

Great video, short and sweet. All the info you require without the "repeats" some videos have. Great job. 👍

[@terrideveau6540]

Thank you! It was a lot easier to do after watching your video! Thank you for taking the time!

[@lisabryant949]

Thank you. This was very helpful...especially the folding part. The length and the width was too much on my door and I hadn't thought about doing that until your video.

[@valeriemendez7590]

Thank you bunches! I had this sitting around my house 4 months. Your video made it easy.

[@CampfireJubilee]

Thank you!!! This was so straightforward and helpful!!! I think I can manage to hang mine up now!!! So appreciated!

[@ConnorMarc]

Your instructions are 1000 times better than the original instructions. Thank you!

[@SahzD]

Thanks for the video! I watched this before making my purchase to understand what I was getting myself into. I like your trick with doing the velcro also, that makes sense.

[@christhomas6239]

Good video. Quick and easy. I got this exact same screen door and I'm about to put it up. Many thanks.

[@ihhngglorialazaro9732]

Excellent how to video !!! Simpler and to the point !

[@ewaller95]

Short, sweet, and to the point. Great video! Thank you!

[@ikhan920]

Mine just came in. This was a helpful video to watch prior to installation. Thank you.

[@kristilisakleiner9384]

Helpful, quick, to the point, and very much appreciated, thank you

[@cliffordbrewer5493]

Thank you it's nice to see someone who explains it well.👍

[@outdrsgrl]

Thank you for posting this, very helpful and appreciated the tips on how to tailor it for your door! Was hesitant on installing it/how to measure the door (as it will be installed on the inside), but am more confident now, thanks to your video!

[@ChrisMcDowellDIY]

Glad it was helpful!

[@HeySarahGurl]

This helped me and my mom put a lot. It’s a last minute fix before our bbq in a few hours so fingers crossed!

[@blessedand4givenipress570]

Thank you so much for taking the time to share this helps so much sure😊God Bless

[@smilemkr]

Oops tapped done too soon. Continued… wasn’t paying attention to when you made this but I just wanted to thank you. I have been procrastinating on installing my screen for a bit now because I wasn’t sure about what to do where my “double doors” are shorter than the length of the screen. After I watched your video, I saw how yours came out when you hemmed the sides (it didn’t look so bad) so, I’m going to attempt installing mine now 🤪. Keep your fingers crossed for me! Also, I loved the idea of using the Velcro and the tacks for extra reinforcement. The more secure, the better your door, I guess lol. Thanks again, Smilez~

[@MsCook-1]

Thank you, I was a tad bit overwhelmed. This helped a lot.

[@renegoodson2353]

Thanks i was unsure if i could do this myself, you gave simple instructions to follow Thanks

[@EmazingGuitar]

It’s a very simple install, how is this overwhelming? Can’t imagine you doing an actual complicated install, you might have a panic attack

[@MsCook-1]

@@EmazingGuitar 🤣🤣🤣 you really didn't have to comment lol but sir you are correct 🤣

[@esotericvv1244]

@@EmazingGuitar I broke my finger doing this when hammering. Not everyone is a master craftsmen like you. Also the measuring process is the hard part for most

[@ashleysmith6053]

@@EmazingGuitar lol I think what she meant was the instructions in the box made it seem more complicated. They tell you to lay it out on the floor and loop this and that and a bunch of useless information. That is why I got on to look lol. So this video makes it a lot more easier to install then the directions it came with. Your comment did make me chuckle 🤭

[@Atrcn]

Yep, confirmed I'm gonna go with these as I seen the how long does it last video you made. Cheers mate!

[@10yrdriftkid40]

Thank you for this video. We had to do the adjustments and wouldn't have known what to do, this was so easy to follow.

[@danielleledesma5607]

You answered my question before you even got started 😆I could not figure out what the wide strip was for and that was my whole reason for finding a video so thank you so much

[@kcudmore21]

Thanks for the video. It's nice to have a visual before attempting to install the mesh door.

[@ChrisMcDowellDIY]

That's why I made the video! Glad it is helpful.

[@lynnbarringer]

Thanks man. I'm thinking about purchasing one for my kiln house/studio/shed. After watching your video I can see that I might as well pull the trigger. Cheers!

[@rebeccabrown3153]

Thanks, Chris, you taught me how to hem the excess. I've had many of these curtains over the years. You made me feel kind of stupid not turning my excess under. Many thanks!

[@melaniemowery9681]

Just bought one; feel much more confident to hang it, now! Thank you!

Great video man like that you jumped right into it. Good work 👍👊

[@garlandboddie9585]

Thanks for explaining it as simply as you did.

[@nikastrovs1214]

Cheers mate, thanks for this! My balcony door is shorter and narrower than the standard net, so folding it over until it fits it what I'll do!

[@baconhair4534]

Thank You. I like how you tested the door repeatedly starting at 2:51. Its totally what I would do...

[@irishdemarco3828]

Thank you for reviewing it! My worries are gone after watching this

[@SoulSeeker770]

This is what I have been using for several years. My only qualm is that they do not last. Most last about 1 year but my most recent lasted a few months. Looking for a way to frame it and make it look nicer and one that will last.

[@ruthcrawford3015]

Helpful! Wish I coulda seen the bottom tho, after you installed. Gonna check out the 'did it last' video next. Thank you!

[@mehdi.farrokh]

Now the question is how long did it last?

[@SnakeDoctor303]

Longer than you in bed

[@sarat8388]

Thank you so much! I rent and was worried about using the velcro strips. This really helped!

[@scottsoulman3062]

Very helpful on installation and your commentary. thanks.

[@kylemcglothen7809]

Thanks for the help man. Makes good sense using the velcro too during installation.

[@ChrisMcDowellDIY]

Thanks man. Seem like it'd be way more difficult to try to do it without the velcro. But doing it by myself, the velcro was a no-brainer.

[@samirasaada6470]

Thanks for the video. That was interesting. I might by it for my slide door.

[@headdown1]

I have one in my RV. It is great for letting my dog go in and out as he pleases. It also lets less mosquitoes in because it hugs your body and has less open space that a normal screen door when going in and out. My first one lasted two years. I just finished installing my new one today. I advise not letting it quite touch the ground, or you will wear a hole in the hem and the magnets that hold the flaps together will fall out.

[@janetfreeman-cazeault5143]

I just want to say thank you for a job well done The only problem I had is that I'm short and we're trying to do it by myself holding the door magnets up is it hard to judge the bottom. The other thing is trying to keep it even.I got to figure out a way to keep my bottom closer cuz I have a kitten I was thinking about maybe running a piece of PVC across close to the floor just to kind of hold the screen to the floor. Hope you and your family have a safe and wonderful holiday God bless
