Door problems in Bon Secour tend to sort into two groups: older homes where the frames and jambs have taken decades of weather, and newer builds where the hardware was the cheapest part of the package and has already given up.

Blowing sand gets into everything down here. Tracks, screen channels, thresholds and lock cylinders all collect it, and it acts like sandpaper on moving parts.
Salt corrodes aluminum screen frames and destroys standard fiberglass mesh, and screens on coastal properties need marine-grade or vinyl-coated mesh if they are going to last more than a couple of seasons.
Rain drives grit and organic debris into the screen track, and that debris packs down under the rollers and holds moisture against the frame.
We factor that in on every screen door repair job around the Bon Secour National Wildlife Refuge and the rest of Bon Secour.
Local factors we account for in Bon Secour: salt air and heavy rainfall — typical of the Alabama Gulf Coast.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Our screen door repair process
- Check it against the openingWe run the frame through its travel and watch where it tightens, which shows whether the fault is the frame or what it runs in.
- Assess the frame for squareA racked frame will not sit in the track properly no matter what mesh is in it.
- Match the mesh to the exposureOn a sun-facing opening, standard fibreglass will be brittle within a couple of seasons, so we specify accordingly.
- Rescreen with correct tensionToo tight and the frame bows, too loose and it billows. Even tension is what keeps a screen flat and quiet.
- Fit and adjust the rollersBoth rollers set so the frame runs level and the latch meets its keeper without lifting. Coastal jobs get stainless or coated fixings as standard, since anything else here is a return visit waiting to happen.
- Check it stays in the trackA screen that can be lifted out is one gust from being on the patio, so the height and the guides get set properly.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895What affects the cost of screen door repair in Bon Secour
There is no single price for screen door repair in Bon Secour, because two doors with identical symptoms can need very different work. Here is what makes the difference:
- storm door hardware such as closers and latches
- the mesh type chosen, from standard fiberglass to pet-resistant and solar
- rescreening versus repairing or replacing the frame
- roller and track work in addition to the screen itself
- the size of the panel
Call and describe what the door is doing. In most cases we can tell you over the phone which of those applies to you before anyone drives out to Bon Secour.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Screen door repair in Bon Secour: questions we get asked
Can you make a screen that keeps out the tiny biting insects?
Yes, fine no-see-um mesh. It has a much tighter weave, and in the parts of Baldwin County near water it is the only thing that actually works against the smallest biters.
How long does a rescreen take?
Usually under an hour per panel in Bon Secour. If the frame needs straightening or corner keys replaced, allow a bit longer.
My sliding screen keeps falling out. Why does it keep happening?
The rollers have worn down so the panel is riding too low and the top rail no longer sits in the head channel. Lifting it back in without replacing the rollers means it will come out again, usually within days.
What mesh should I use if I have dogs?
Pet-resistant mesh, which is a heavier vinyl-coated polyester, and often a pet grille across the lower section. Standard fiberglass will not survive a dog that pushes against it.
Can a bent screen frame be straightened?
Sometimes. Light aluminum frames can often be brought back to square, but a badly racked frame is usually better replaced, and a custom panel is not expensive.
Do you repair storm doors as well as screens?
Yes, including closers, latches, sweeps, hinges and glass or screen inserts. Storm door closers that have torn out of the frame after a gust are one of the most common calls.
