Sliding Screens In Pekin
Sliding Screens in Pekin, IL
On a mild Pekin, Illinois evening, the easiest way to cool the house is to open the front door, as long as the bugs stay out. Our Solar Shield Blinds Sliding Screens tuck out of sight beside the frame when you don't need them and pull across the doorway in seconds when you do, and each one is built to your door.
Where It Fits In Pekin
Doors Across Pekin, Old And New
Sliding Screens fit front doors, back doors, patio doors, garage doors and big multi-panel sliders, in an older home near downtown or a new build out by the lake.
- Front Doors On Older HomesIf you've been told a storm door won't work on your entry, a Sliding Screen is worth a look, because it doesn't need the framing a swing door does.
- French Doors To The PatioDouble doors out to the back yard take two screens that meet at a magnet in the center, across openings up to 130 inches.
- Multi-Panel And Bi-Fold DoorsWide doors to the patio can be screened as well, up to 12 feet across with one Large Opening Sliding Screen, 24 feet with two, and 10 feet high.
- Garage DoorsScreen the garage door opening and you can work in there on a July afternoon with the breeze coming through and the bugs kept out.
Built To Your Door
Out of the way when it's closed, across the door when it's open
A framed screen door sits in front of the glass every day of the year. Our Sliding Screens retract into a slim housing beside the frame when they're not in use, so the view out stays clear, and they pull across on a top and bottom track for smooth, steady operation.
None of our Sliding Screens come in stock sizes, because each one is made for its own door. A single door can be as large as 65 inches wide and 9 feet tall, and a French door pair up to 130 inches across. The housing comes in 8 standard and 18 custom colors with 3 handle choices, so it can disappear against your trim. Every door in the house gets measured during the visit, and the color samples come along so you can compare them with your paint.
We'll also tell you what to expect. From some angles the screen can look a little wavy, and the tracks need lubricated several times a year. Every screen needs a bottom track, which leaves a low threshold at the door, and your Design Specialist points out exactly where it will sit.
