How to Install a
Solid Vinyl Screen Door
Gather Tools & Supplies
You will need measuring tape, a drill with a Phillips
Head bit, shims or something similar to assist with
holding the door during installation. You may also
need a circular saw if you need to trim your door.
Install Hinges & Hardware
Refer to the instructions included with your selected
hardware to complete you door installation. If you
have purchased Screen Tight hardware, please watch
our installation video to ensure proper mounting of
the hinges. ScreenTight.com/Hardware
Set the door at on a solid surface and install the
hinges at your marked locations. Then install the
hinge on the door jam. Screw the bottom hole on the
top hinge rst, use a level to make sure the door is
straight, and then screw in the rest of the holes. Shims
or wedges can help you to hold the door in place.
Will the material hold a fastener or screw?
Yes, better than wood. The solid cellular structure of the vinyl will not split or crack when attaching hardware.
Can I paint the door?
PVC materials are paintable. However, the nature and application of this product is not favorable for
painting and will adversely effect its weatherability and void the warranty.

Determine Opening Size
Measure the width and height of your existing open-
ing inside the door frame to determine if you need to
trim your door. Allow a 1/8” space on each side and
1/4” on the top and bottom.

FAQ
Trim Door as Needed
You can trim your door up to 3/8” from each side
and top and 1” off the bottom. A standard circular
saw will do the job — vinyl cuts just like wood. If you
trim more than these amounts you will compromise
the integrity of the door an void the warranty.
