About this deal

Take measurements of the width and the height of the doorway and the existing screen door (if there is one) to accurately determine the correct size of the magnetic screen door to purchase. The 36-by-98-inch screen door opens with a push to let people and pets go in and out freely, while the weight of strong magnets sewn into the screen edging pulls the two sides back into place. We found this screen opened and closed with ease thanks to the full-length magnets along its length.

Finally a magnetic insect screen door with durable heavy duty magnets and a superior fibreglass mesh curtain which lets you enjoy the breeze (insect free) in your house whilst leaving doors open. All magnetic fly screen kits come complete with easy to follow video instructions and require no screws, no nails, and will give you no hassles.Best of all, they work a treat – we can open the windows without having flies and insects invade our space. The type of frame, be it metal, wood, or an alternate material, will limit your choice of installation fasteners. This magnetic screen door uses a windproof sticker hasp design on the middle and the bottom of the screen door to prevent it from being blown open by high winds. She is the author of two DIY books: Do-It-Yourself Garden Projects and Crafts and Crafting with Herbs from Skyhorse Publishing.

The pet door stays closed using magnets in the frame that hold the swinging portion of the door in place when not in use.

With 26 powerful magnets sewn into the reinforced edges, this magnetic screen door features a fast yet silent closing that will not disrupt activities indoors or out. A hasp is a locking mechanism, such as a leather buckle with a button fastener or a slotted hinged plate and loop made of nylon. We found that it opens easily without the need to use our hands, and our dogs had no issues getting in and out. In fact, I bought a second one because it not only keeps the cat in when it’s hot and I want air through the house, it keeps nasty spiders out. The difference is incredible … we can open our windows in this heat and no flies, wasps or bees or moths in the house.

After installing the magnetic screen door, check that the magnets at the end of each screen link to each other. I bought several insect screens so we can have the windows open for fresh air without lots of insects as the large trees outside had a lot of bugs, now we have no worries and no bites, they were easy to put together and durable, cheers! We found the installation to be straightforward, but you do have to cut out a section of your existing screen to create an opening for the dog door. Although this screen is made from polyester mesh, it’s thinner than the others we tested, and it doesn’t seem likely to hold up to a high amount of animal and people traffic. Some manufacturers use reinforcing thumbtacks on the doorframe to increase the strength of the installation.Stick on top of the door frame first, then on both sides frame, carefully peeling and firmly pressing along on the edge of the door frame. The Ownpets Dog Screen Door is not a magnetic screen door, so we could not test it accurately with the rubrics established for magnetic screen doors.

She has contributed hundreds of home, garden, and crafting articles and DIY tutorials for leading media outlets and retailers, including HGTV, Real Simple, Forbes Advisor, The Spruce, The Home Depot, Walmart, and Mother Earth News. Repeat with all thumbtacks, ensuring that they are evenly installed around the sides and top of the magnetic screen door. Thumbtacks are appropriate for wooden frames, but for metal, you will need to use adhesive Velcro strips. Wind-resistant hasps: If your door will be located in a windy area, wind-resistant hasps are a good idea. Magnetic screen doors can come with multiple types of fasteners to hold the door closed and to keep the door installed in its location.

My only issue to date is that the thumb tacks included with the insect screen door has started to loosen from the door molding, I am thinking it is because the door moulding itself is not that great. With that said, I used a staple gun and added more thumb tacks so now the screen mesh is securely fitted.
