What you’ll need:
Steps:
Adjust the size of the screen door
1
2
Remove the screen door from the package and
unfold it on the floor or table. Connect all the
magnets together so the screen door is
completely shut. Note: the front of the screen
door has the polyester border; the back has the
hook-and-loop border.
Hold the top of the screen door on your door
frame:
A
Determine if the length or width or both need to be adjusted. If no adjustment is needed, continue to step 4.
C
When holding the screen to the top of your door
frame, the bottom should hang about ¼ inch off
the floor. If the screen door is dragging on the
ground as in Figure 5, then you will need to
“hem” it at the top or side, but don’t worry that
is very easy!

Hemming the screen door (skip this step if no hemming is necessary)
3
As you’re holding the screen door
up to the door frame, find the
point at the top seam of the
screen door where it sits about a
¼ inch off the ground. Place your
finger at that point.
1Fold the screen door at that point.
The fold should be from the front
to back so that the velcro is not
exposed.
2
Hemming the screen door length
A
Take a thumbtack and push it
through both seams to secure the
hem. Do this for the entire top of
the screen door, making sure the
hem width is the same across the
top.
3
Hemming the screen door width
B
As you’re holding the screen door
to the door frame, find the point
at the top seam where it sits
about 2” inset of the corner along
the frame. Place your finger at
that point.
1Fold the screen door into that
point. The fold should be from
front to back so that the velcro is
not exposed. More than one fold
may be necessary.
2Take a thumbtack and push it
through both seams to secure the
hem. Then continue the fold all
the way down each side of the
screen door.
3
Hemming the screen door length and width
C
First follow the steps in 3a to hem the length, then follow the steps in 3b to hem the width.

Installing the screen door
4
Secure the screen door to the top
of the door frame by gently
hammering the thumbtacks into
the door frame. It is best to
hammer in 2 thumbtacks (1 on the
left side and 1 on the right side) as
shown below so you can make
sure the screen door is centered in
the middle of the door frame and
that it fits appropriately.
1Insert thumbtacks across the top
seam about 5-6 inches apart. Make
sure that there are two thumbtacks
at the top middle of the screen
door just above where the magnets
connect. See Figure 13.
Note: You want to make sure that
the screen door is not mounted too
tightly on the sides or it will keep
the magnets from being able to
close properly.
2
Mounting the top seam of the screen door
A
When inserting the thumbtacks
along the top seam, always check
to make sure that the bottom of
the screen door is still about a ¼
inch off the ground. The top seam
should look like Figure 13 once
completed.
3
Insert thumbtacks down each side of the screen door along the polyester
seam. Note: The spacing of each thumbtack should be about 1 ft apart.
For added security and durability, reduce spacing to about 6 inches. And,
if the side fold is too thick for the thumbtacks to go thru, widen the fold
to use less fabric.
1
Insert the thumbtacks 1 level at a time about 5-6” inches apart (1
thumbtack on the left side and 1 thumbtack at the same level on the
right side). See Figure 15.
2
Mounting the side seams of the screen door
B
While inserting the thumbtacks on each side, always check to make sure
that the screen door is not attached too tightly and test to make sure
the magnets can close easily. Also, make sure the screen door is still
about a ¼ inch off the ground.

What you’ll need:
Steps:
Paper towels
Any type of cleaning detergent and isopropyl
rubbing alcohol
If “hemming” is necessary, you can use staples or
any type of clip. Mini binder clips are ideal and you
can remove the metal clips after installing.

1
Clean entire door frame with any type of cleaning detergent and then thoroughly wipe down the door frame with
isopropyl alcohol so that the hook-and-loop tape adheres to the frame.
2
Follow Steps 1 and 2 for Instructions for Mounting to Wooden Door Frame.
3
Once you find the point where you need to mount the top seam of the screen door on your door frame, take the
hook-and-loop backing tape that came in the package and cut so that it is the same length as the top seam of the screen
door. Remove the white film on the back of the hook-and-loop backing tape and attach it to the top of the door frame.
4
If your screen door requires hemming
The only difference for hemming in Step 3 for
Instructions for Mounting to Wooden Door
Frame, is that you need to expose the Velcro
strip so that it can be properly mounted to
the backing tape. Only one more fold is
required to do this.
