    Just had a new sliding screen door put in at my apartment and immediately noticed this problem. The bug seal was catching so bad it was trying to drag the screen off track. Thanks so much for this!

    Our bug seal make a terrible noise in cold weather when shutting. Any idea how to stop that?

    • @Bestcustomscreens
      @Bestcustomscreens  5 місяців тому

      Thats a new one to me. If you trim in back a little maybe it will stop it. I'm thinking also maybe spray some Alum a lub on it. It's also possible it's harden from the sun, so getting a new bug to seal it should solve it. Good luck. Please circle back with is when you find a solution or not. Keep me posted. Thank you, Steve.

      When I talk about notching I'm referring to the shape of your glass door. Cut or shape the bug seal to fit your door. I hope this helps

      @@Bestcustomscreens Thanks. What I'm wondering is how the rubber tears in such a perfectly straight line. I thought maybe there were several "notches" that ran the length of the rubber strip and made it easy to tear in a straight line. No?

      @@geki9063 there are lines that are notched. Once you cut the top end then you can just pull it to remove the excess.
