How do you install a screen door insert?

• <div><p>If your door has interchangeable inserts, you’ll likely want to swap the glass out for a screen during the summer months. The process to do so will vary by door, but you’ll follow these general steps: First, use a flathead screwdriver to pop out the retainer strips—the plastic strips running down both long (and sometimes all four) sides of the door. Then gently pull them out by hand. Carefully remove the glass insert from the door and replace it with the screen. Finally, push the plastic retainer strips back into place, working from top to bottom. </p></div>

Q: What’s the difference between a screen door and a storm door?

• <div><p>Storm doors are different from <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/3-things-know-about-screen-doors.htm">screen doors</a> in a few ways. While screen doors are simple structures designed to keep out bugs and allow air circulation, storm doors are heavier and designed to protect your home&rsquo;s entry door from weather and intruders. They are made of aluminum with tempered glass panels to allow natural light in the home.</p></div>

Q: How do you replace a retractable screen on a storm door?

• <div><p>The steps to replace a retractable screen can vary, but these are the general steps: First, remove the screen cover to expose the screen mechanism and remove the clip that holds the screen in place. Next, depress the end of the screen mechanism so it releases from the door frame. Take your new screen and fit one end into the frame. You may need to rotate the mechanism to engage the spring before inserting the other end into the frame. Finally, pull the screen down the length of the door&rsquo;s opening and lock it in place with the clip.</p></div>

Q: What can I use instead of a doggie door?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;re not keen on using a traditional doggie door, there are some alternatives. One popular option is a solid, insulated door that you can lock when you&rsquo;re out of the home for added security. You can also opt for a doggie screen, which you can lift and lower to allow your pooch access to the outdoors. These are a bit more convenient to use than a regular exterior door, although security could be an issue. You can also install a screen door with a small opening for your pup to prevent bugs from coming inside as your dog exits.</p></div>

Q: Can you trim an overhead garage door screen?

• <div><p>You can trim an overhead garage door screen to fit your garage door opening. This is a particularly helpful hack if you have an irregularly sized garage door opening but are still interested in installing a garage door screen to keep pests and debris out. Trim the garage door screen carefully to avoid unsightly edges or an uneven fit.</p></div>

Bode Tree trimming was suppose to return to do a second treatment to a remaining stump and repair the damage done to the neighbor but he never returned. He also caused damages to the neighbors fence and did not do all the repairs he promised to do.
