Why hire us?

Zero Center-Rise

Magnets attract flush from top to bottom, with no gaps in the middle for bugs to slip through.

Threshold Clearance

We measure exactly above your sill to ensure the mesh doesn't drag or fray from foot traffic.

Proper Frame Prep

Adhesive fails on dusty frames. We wipe down the mounting surface with 90% isopropyl alcohol for a permanent bond.

How We Install Magnetic Screen Doors

1. Frame Preparation

The most common reason magnetic mesh fails is dust. We wipe the perimeter of your door frame with 90% isopropyl alcohol to ensure the adhesive strip achieves a permanent bond, following 3M surface preparation guidelines.

2. Height Calibration

We measure exactly 1/8 to 1/4 inch of clearance above your threshold. This prevents the mesh from dragging on the floor and fraying while ensuring a tight bug seal and meeting ASTM D3656 insect screening specification. If you have other small jobs around the house, our Handyman team can tackle those on the same visit.

3. Center-Rise Prevention

We mount the top center of the mesh exactly half an inch higher than the top corners. This physics trick forces the two sides of the mesh to pull together, eliminating the gap that often forms in the middle of DIY installs.

A poorly hung magnetic screen door leaves gaps, sags in the middle, or peels off the frame after a week of use. Don't risk your pets pulling it down or bugs getting in — give our team in the local area a quick call. We use commercial-grade hook-and-loop tape applied to a perfectly prepped surface to ensure your screen holds up to heavy traffic all season. Looking for indoor shade options?

Review from James Carter

The tech was in and out in under an hour. Screen hangs perfectly straight and the magnets snap shut instantly. Highly recommend.

Review from Elena Rodriguez

I originally tried to install a cheaper mesh myself but couldn't get it to stay up. I called R8Works for some advice mid-DIY, and the guy on the phone was super helpful. I eventually just hired them to do it right. Best decision. The frame prep they do makes all the difference.

Review from Michael Chen

Great service. They cleaned the door frame thoroughly before applying the tape.

Review from Sarah Jenkins

My dog kept pulling down the old screen because it was too tight at the bottom. R8Works measured it so it hovers just above the sill. Now my golden retriever runs through it all day and it hasn't budged!

Review from David O’Brien

Was struggling with a big gap in the middle of a screen I bought online. Called their support line and they actually gave me free phone advice about raising the center half an inch. I was so impressed I just had them come out and install the heavy-duty one they supply. Total pros.

Frequently Asked Questions

No. The hook-and-loop tape we use is designed for a strong bond but can be removed safely with heat (like a hair dryer) if you ever decide to take it down.
Yes! The magnetic strip separates easily for pets and automatically snaps back together behind them.
It's up to you. We can install a heavy-duty mesh we supply, or we can professionally mount one you've already purchased.
