Resources Required
• Tape measure (If needed to install extrusions.)
Installation
1. Completely open the RV entry and screen doors and
place them ush against the unit.
NOTE: Use the provided door catch to hold the door in
place. If a door catch is not available, place protective
material between the door and the unit to prevent
scratches to the exterior.
2. Hold the Screen Defender against the inside of the
screen door to determine if the extrusions will be needed to
ll a gap beneath the bottom of the screen.
3. If extrusions are not needed, continue to step 4. If
extrusions are needed to ll a gap, proceed to Install
Extrusions and Screen Defender section.
4. Tilt the Screen Defender and direct one side of the
Screen Defender toward the back channel of the screen
door (Fig.2).
5. Insert the channel guide at the bottom of the Screen
Defender into the back channel of the screen door.
6. Insert the channel guide on the other end of the Screen
Defender into the back channel of the screen door.
7. Squeeze the two retractable latches at the top of the
Screen Defender.
8. Push the Screen Defender into the channel of the screen
door and then push down until it is seated on the bottom of
the screen door channel.
9. Release the Screen Defender latches. The Screen
Defender is installed.

Install Extrusions and Screen Defender.
1. Dry t the Screen Defender into the screen door with the
bottom edge of it resting on the bottom inside edge of the
screen frame (Fig.3).
2. Measure the distance between the top edge of the
Screen Defender and the horizontal frame that makes up
the lower side of the H bar.
NOTE: If a Screen Shot automatic screen door closer is
installed, make sure the measurement taken is below the
Screen Shot and not up to the H bar.
3. If the gap to be lled by the extrusions is less than 2”,
select the short set of extrusions. However, a larger gap
requires the standard set of extrusions.
Fig.3
Fig.4
NOTE: The female and male extrusions from the standard
and short kits can be mixed and matched to achieve
desired results.
NOTE: There is a channel approximately 3/8” deep at the
top of the extrusions where the bottom of the Screen
Defender will be placed. This will extend the size of the gap
accordingly.
4. Press the male and female extrusions together to match
the height of the gap, starting at one end and then pressing
in the middle and then the other end (Fig.4).
5. Place the assembled extrusions on the low frame rail of
the screen door (Fig.5).
