A screen door should close cleanly, latch square, and keep bugs out without dragging or rattling. Serving Baton Rouge since 2016, we install and repair hinged and sliding screen door systems with durable frames, tight mesh, and hardware that holds up to daily traffic.
Every screen door job starts with measuring the opening and checking the door jamb, threshold, and reveal for out-of-square issues. We verify hinge side plumb, confirm latch alignment, and look for rub points at the sill before recommending repair vs replacement. For installs, we size the screen door to the opening, set proper clearances, and select hardware that matches how you use the entry, standard pull handle, keyed latch, or a simple spring latch for light-duty doors.
Repairs usually come down to the basics: bent frames, worn rollers, broken corners, stripped hinge screws, sagging hinges, or torn mesh. We replace rollers, corner keys, closers, pull handles, bug sweeps, and latch sets, then true up the frame so it runs without binding. If the existing unit is too far gone, we build a new screen door with an aluminum frame and rescreen with fiberglass mesh for value, or upgrade to pet-resistant mesh for claws and high-traffic openings.
South Louisiana heat, humidity, and frequent rain can swell wood jambs, shift thresholds, and shorten the life of low-grade hardware, so fit and fasteners matter. We use corrosion-resistant screws, adjust for seasonal movement, and tune the strike so the latch catches without slamming. For sliding screen doors, we set roller height, square the door in the track, and install a tight bug sweep and interlock where applicable so you do not get daylight at the stile.
Baton Rouge customers choose us because we treat screen doors like precision hardware, not a quick add-on. Licensed and insured, we show up with the right parts, rollers, closers, mesh, spline, and the tools to cut, tension, and square frames on site. You get a clear written estimate, straightforward options (repair, rescreen, or full replacement), and workmanship focused on smooth operation, tight sealing, and clean finished edges.
Before we wrap up, we do a full closing walkthrough: open and close the screen door multiple times, confirm it self-closes if equipped, verify the latch engages, and check that it does not rub at the threshold or jamb. We inspect mesh tension, spline seating, corner joints, and handle tightness, then clean up the work area and haul off old components if replaced. You leave with a screen door that runs straight, blocks insects, and is ready for everyday use, plus care tips to keep rollers, hinges, and mesh performing longer.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after reviewing the project scope, measurements, materials, and any needed frame or door repairs.
Small repairs can be completed quickly, while larger rescreens and enclosure work depend on access, frame condition, and material availability. After the on-site measure, we give you a realistic schedule.
In many cases, yes. We evaluate the existing mesh type, color, and weave and recommend the closest match, or an upgrade if the current mesh is failing prematurely.
Yes. We can replace torn panels, damaged spline, bent sections where feasible, and restore door operation, then advise if structural rebuild is the safer option.
Yes. We handle screening for commercial patios, outdoor seating, and shared spaces, with scheduling that reduces disruption and a clear written scope for property managers.
If your screen door drags, won’t latch, or lets insects slip through gaps, the fix is usually a mix of correct fit, solid hardware, and properly tensioned mesh. Baton Rouge Screens installs new hinged and sliding screen door units and handles practical repairs like rescreening, roller replacement, and closer or latch adjustments. We focus on dependable operation, clean lines, and materials that make sense for daily use in Louisiana weather.
Screen door problems tend to show up fast: a sagging hinged door that rubs the sill, a sliding screen door that jumps the track, or torn mesh that turns the entry into a mosquito magnet. We diagnose the cause first, frame twist, worn rollers, misaligned strike, loose hinges, or a damaged corner, then complete the repair with matched parts. For rescreening, we remove the old spline, prep the frame, install new mesh, and set fresh spline so the screen stays tight without ripples or loose edges.
When replacement is the better value, we help you choose the right screen door construction and hardware for the opening and traffic level. Common upgrades include pet-resistant mesh at back doors, heavier-duty closers for frequent use, and improved latching for security and consistent closing. For sliding units, we tune roller height and track contact so the door glides evenly and closes against the jamb without leaving daylight at the edges.
