Whether you are near Cheaha Mountain, over in the AL-21 corridor, or on the Logan Martin Lake side of Munford, it is the same coverage and the same crew.
A lot of what we see in Talladega County comes down to age. Houses built decades ago have solid frames with tired hardware; houses built recently have sound hardware in frames that are still settling.

Click to Call (205) 619-2895How conditions in Munford affect screen door repair
The foothills get real cold snaps and real heat, and the ground moves with them. Rocky, uneven fill under older slabs means door frames rarely stay perfectly square for a decade.
Rain drives grit and organic debris into the screen track, and that debris packs down under the rollers and holds moisture against the frame.
Wind gets behind a screen panel and pushes it out of the track, and on hinged screen and storm doors a gust catching the door is what tears closers out of the frame.
We see the pattern often enough across Talladega County that we usually know what we are looking at before we arrive.
Local factors we account for in Munford: heavy rainfall and storm wind — typical of the Appalachian foothills.

- Work out whether it is the screen or the trackA screen that jams is often a track problem. Replacing rollers in a damaged track fixes nothing.
- Check the frame for squareA racked frame will never slide properly. Corner keys get reset before anything else is considered.
- Choose the right meshStandard fiberglass, pet-resistant, solar or fine mesh, depending on pets, sun exposure and what insects you are dealing with.
- 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 rollersSet so the panel rides smoothly and stays captured in the head channel. Foothill jobs get assessed for wind loading, because doors here take gusts that flatten seals unevenly.
- Test the full travelThe door should move with one finger, latch cleanly and stay in the track.

- the size of the panel
- rescreening versus repairing or replacing the frame
- the mesh type chosen, from standard fiberglass to pet-resistant and solar
- storm door hardware such as closers and latches

Click to Call (205) 619-2895Screen door repair in Munford: questions we get asked
The screen slides hard even though it is not falling out. What is wrong?
Either the rollers have seized or the track is packed with debris. In Munford the track collects a surprising amount of grit, and it acts like grinding paste on the rollers.
Is it worth rescreening or should I just buy a new screen door?
Rescreening is far cheaper and the frame is usually fine. New panels only make sense when the frame is bent beyond straightening or the corners are gone.
How long does a rescreen take?
Usually under an hour per panel in Munford. If the frame needs straightening or corner keys replaced, allow a bit longer.
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.
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 Talladega County near water it is the only thing that actually works against the smallest biters.
My screen mesh has gone brittle and crumbles. What happened?
UV exposure. Screens on the south and west sides of a house in Munford take a lot of sun, and standard fiberglass mesh eventually degrades. Solar mesh lasts longer and cuts heat at the same time.
