Worth Knowing
Mid century doors and a better screen
South Kansas City was built for a backyard life. The ranches and split levels in Red Bridge, Verona Hills, Santa Fe Hills, Linden Hills and Ruskin Heights sit under a big tree canopy, with a sliding door or a lower level door onto a shaded patio. Most of those doors still have a framed screen that sits across half the glass and sticks in its track. Our Sliding Screens are better than conventional framed rolling screen doors, because they retract into their housing when not in use and keep the view as clear as possible. Each one is built to the exact size of your door.
A ranch back door or a split level lower door is a single door, and a Standard Sliding Screen fits one up to 65 inches wide and 9 feet tall. The sliding door walls and French doors take the double door version, up to 130 inches across. A remodel with a bi-fold door takes the Large Opening model, up to 12 feet wide and 10 feet tall, or 24 feet with two paired.
Top and bottom tracks keep it steady. The mesh can look a little wavy from certain angles, plan on lubricating the tracks several times a year, and expect a low threshold where the bottom track crosses the doorway. We measure every door at your South Kansas City home for free and hold the written price for 180 days.
Under the big oaks along Wornall and Holmes the backyards stay cool well into the evening, and that's the air you want through the house. The trouble with an open door under the trees is everything that falls and flies out of them. A Sliding Screen keeps it outside, then tucks away so the door looks out at the yard again.
