A screen door should close square, latch clean, and keep insects out without dragging or rattling. Raleigh Screens installs and repairs hinged and sliding screen doors with durable frames, tight mesh, and hardware that holds up to daily use.
Every screen door job starts with measuring the opening and checking the condition of the jamb, threshold, and existing hinges or track. We look for out-of-plumb frames, sagging corners, worn rollers, and latch alignment issues that cause sticking or gaps. For new installs, we confirm door swing, handle height, and clearances, then set the door for a consistent reveal and a smooth close. For repairs, we quote the specific fix, from re-screening and spline replacement to corner keys, rollers, and closer hardware.
In this area, humidity, wind-driven rain, pollen, and heavy seasonal use can expose weak screens and cheap hardware fast. We build for real-world conditions with corrosion-resistant components, tight mesh tension, and clean perimeter sealing, so you are not fighting a door that drags or pops open. Common upgrades include fiberglass insect screen, aluminum screen mesh, pet-resistant mesh, and heavy-duty kick plates where needed. On sliding screen door repairs, we tune the track, replace rollers, and adjust height so the panel glides and latches without bouncing out of the frame.
Customers choose Raleigh Screens because we focus on the details that make a screen door feel solid, not flimsy. Our techs show up with the right parts and tools, including spline rollers, replacement rollers, closers, latch sets, and fasteners, so most jobs do not turn into multiple visits. We give a clear written estimate, explain options by use case (kids, pets, rental traffic, high-sun exposure), and we do not push a one-size-fits-all screen. The result is a door that fits your opening, operates quietly, and looks clean from the curb and from inside.
Before we wrap up, we do a full function check: swing or slide travel, latch engagement, closer speed, and even screen tension with no ripples or loose edges. We walk you through what was installed or repaired, show you how to maintain the track or hinges, and point out anything we see that could affect long-term performance. You get a screen door that is aligned, secure, and easy to use, plus documentation of the work and the materials used. If you are dealing with a torn mesh, a bent frame, or a door that will not stay closed, we will get it back to smooth, dependable operation.
Yes, we provide a free written estimate after an on-site measure so the scope and materials are clear.
Often, yes. We’ll identify your current frame system and mesh type, then recommend the closest match that performs well and is available.
Small repairs can be quick, while larger porches and multi-panel walls take longer due to prep, panel count, and door work. After we measure, we’ll give you a realistic timeline.
Yes. We can replace torn mesh, bent frame members, damaged doors, and compromised trim, and we’ll flag any structural issues that need carpentry before screening.
We’ll confirm payment options with your written estimate and invoice. If your project requires a deposit for custom materials, we’ll state that upfront.
If your screen door drags, will not latch, has torn mesh, or lets bugs in around the edges, it usually comes down to fit, hardware, or screen tension. Raleigh Screens provides screen door installation and screen door repair for homeowners, rentals, and commercial entries, including hinged screen doors and sliding screen doors. We take accurate measurements, check the opening for square, and recommend materials that match how the door is used, from everyday back doors to high-traffic patios.
A quality screen door is more than just new mesh. For hinged doors, we correct sag by resetting hinges, squaring the frame, and aligning the strike so the latch catches without forcing the handle. For sliding doors, we replace worn rollers, clean and tune the track, and adjust the panel height so it glides smoothly and stays in the channel. When re-screening, we use the proper spline size and tension to avoid wrinkles, loose corners, and premature pull-out.
Material choice matters. Fiberglass insect screen is a popular, cost-effective option for everyday use, while aluminum mesh can provide a crisper look and added stiffness. For homes with pets or heavy traffic, pet-resistant mesh helps reduce claw damage and stretching. We also replace bent frames, worn corner keys, handles, and closers when those parts are the real cause of rattles, sticking, or gaps.
From the first measurement to the final latch test, our process is built around long-term performance. You will get a clear scope of work, the right screen door setup for your opening, and a finished install that looks neat and operates the way it should.
