In Florida, a working screen door is what lets you open up the house to the breeze without letting the bugs in. When the mesh tears, the frame bends, or the little wheels jump the track, that stops. Lincoln Sliding Doors handles screen door repair — re-screening, roller and frame work, and full rebuilds — across the Daytona Beach area.
Screen doors are light and fixable. Whether yours has a hole the cat made or a frame that's racked out of shape, we can usually get it gliding and sealing again the same visit.
What this service solves
A repaired screen door keeps insects out while letting the air in, glides smoothly on its track again, and closes properly so it actually does its job. It also protects your main slider from wear by taking the day-to-day traffic.
Warning signs to watch for
- Torn, stretched, or holed screen mesh
- The screen door drags, sticks, or jumps off its track
- A bent or racked frame that won't sit square
- The little rollers are worn so the door won't glide
- The latch won't catch or the door won't stay closed
Common causes
- Everyday wear, pets, and UV degrading the mesh
- Worn or broken screen rollers
- A light aluminum frame bending out of square
- Debris in the screen track
- Sun and salt making old mesh brittle
What our technician checks
- The mesh condition and the right replacement screen type
- The screen door's rollers and how it rides the track
- Whether the frame is square or needs straightening
- The screen track for debris or damage
- The latch and closing action
Our repair process
Assess the door
We check the mesh, frame, rollers, and track to see whether it needs re-screening, new rollers, or a rebuild.
Re-screen or rebuild
We fit fresh mesh — including pet-resistant or solar options where you want them — and true or rebuild the frame if it's racked.
Service the rollers and track
We replace worn screen rollers and clean the track so the door glides freely again.
Test glide and latch
We confirm the door rolls smoothly, sits square, and latches closed the way it should.
Repair or replace?
Most screen doors are very repairable. New mesh, new rollers, and a straightened frame bring the great majority back to full function for far less than a new door. Re-screening alone solves the most common complaint — torn mesh.
When a frame is badly corroded or crushed beyond straightening, building a fresh screen door is the better route. Because screen frames are simple, even a full rebuild is an economical fix.
The Florida & coastal factor
Coastal sun and salt are hard on screen mesh — it goes brittle and tears, and the light frames corrode at the corners. If you want mesh that lasts longer in the Daytona climate, we can fit heavier solar or pet-resistant screen that stands up better to the exposure.
Residential & commercial
For rental properties and multi-unit buildings, we can re-screen and repair sliding screen doors in batches, keeping units rentable and comfortable.
Frequently asked questions
Can you just replace the screen mesh?
Yes — re-screening is one of the most common screen repairs. We can fit standard, solar, or pet-resistant mesh depending on what you need.
My screen door keeps falling off the track — why?
Usually worn screen rollers or a bent frame. We replace the rollers, true the frame, and clean the track so it rides properly again.
Do you offer pet-resistant screen?
We do. Pet-resistant mesh is much tougher than standard screen and is a popular choice for households with cats and dogs.
Is it worth repairing an old screen door?
Almost always. Re-screening and new rollers are inexpensive compared with a new door and restore full function.
Can you build a new screen door if mine is beyond repair?
Yes. If the frame is corroded or crushed, we can build a fresh sliding screen door to fit your opening.
