    When mounting the meeting rail be sure to attach the aluminum meeting rail aka as an H channel to the side that is going to have the J hook or latch grab / plate.
    On one side of the meeting rail there are notches which allow it to click into the side of the screen door where the J hook will be mounted.
    Then use a self tapping screw to attach.
    Also don't allow for any bowing of the channel.
    If the alum meeting rail is too long, then use a hacksaw or chop saw with a blade that can cut aluminum to cut it down to required size.

    Great video very informative. Just one question for clarification. On the meeting rail There is a shallow opening and a deeper opening. Which one gets fixed to the door?

    • @Bestcustomscreens
      @Bestcustomscreens  2 роки тому +1

      The smaller opening gets a fixed to the door. The larger opening of the aluminum meeting rail allows the other screen door to slide in and out of the channel. Does this make sense?

    How do you stop the doors from moving where center no longer aligns with interior center?

      Sounds like the screen doors are damaged. I've never seen not align. Can you email me photos of what you're talking about to bestcustomscreens@gmail.com? Thank you.

    The house we just moved into, the screen doors slide all the way over instead of stopping in the middle. How do I fix this?

      Are there 2 sliding screen doors that meet in the middle?

      I have the same problem. Two sliding screen doors that meet in the center, but sometimes one pushes the other one further. How do I make sure that neither of them can move past the center?
