I need a bug strip that will attach to the top of the sliding screen door. Can you tell me how this is installed?

This bug guard works on sliding screen doors that have a channel on the vertical side of the door opposite the door knob. The wide part of the bug guard (the side pictured on the left of the guard) snaps into the channel and the guard lays flush on the glass door. It can be a bit tricky to snap the guard into the channel, I used a butter knife to push it in. The guard is 7 ft long and made of rubber and can be cut to length using regular scissors. It works great, well worth the money!

This is designed to fit into the grooves on the back--or non opening side--of the screen door. If you have the grooves all around your screen door it may be pliable to be bent from the back side over the top as well. The thin portion of the rubber strip sweeps against the glass when the screen opens and/or when the glass slider is open to block the bugs out. It is designed specifically for that type if install. It is a fairly wide rubber piece and almost too thick a rubber grade to cut long-ways. Something used for drafts might be better suited to your purpose or at least a less-thick rubber strip...this one is somewhat stiffer than many.

It attaches from top to bottom on the side furthest from the side where you pull it closed. It keeps bugs from coming in between the screen and glass, when you open the screen it glides across the glass. To install it pushes into a channel on the side. Not sure how you would attach to the top since the screen door has rollers that slide on the track at top and bottom.

A screen door guard covers half of an existing screen slide with thicker metal in a open pattern that pets cannot, as a rule, break through when jumping against the screen causing rips and tears in your screening material. It is fastened onto the existing screen with tiny screws and is very effective. You can see one at your local home improvement store to get an idea but they are less expensive on Amazon when they are available

It comes with. Track that you screw into the tip of the door jam (above your head as you walk through the door way). Then the top of the sliding door is pushed into the track and it hangs freely from the track. It comes with pretty good instructions to follow when doing the install.

They screening that comes with it is basically hardware cloth (metal), with 1/4 inch square openings. I cut out some standard screen pieces the same sizes and put behind that for added bug protection.

Mine has no groove. The screen actually is held to one side of the feeder top by a couple of large staples held up enough to allow the screen to move back and forth. There is a small hook on the opposite side and it moves back in forth to hold or release the screen. I had some aggressive squirrels that pulled a couple of the staples out and now mine is held on to the top by one staple. I have not been able to find these staples at my local hardware stores. If my last one comes out I am not sure how I will fix it.

I have same doors. Rod goes outside mounts inside the door frame so you can open your doors and the screen keeps bugs out but light and air can get in. I love this screen!

Each panel is an aluminum frame. The sliding doors you will have to secure them. Will they scratch through the screens.

It sounds like it would be a little too small for your opening. The screen measurements are 36"x 83", but this is the total size, including an edges that are secured with the velcro. Because they are secured flat against the frame it takes up about an inch on each side. Once all the edges are secured, it fits doors up to 34" x 82" While it works on some of our doors, something I am considering in the future is to frame up a small screened area outside my front door and making the opening to accommodate this screen so I can step out my front door without getting accosted by bugs and critters.

Hmm, we didn't. What we did do was to go to hardware store and buy a little metal contraption with white plastic wheel to "anchor" the door to the baseboard right where meets the door jamb when the sliding door is open. We have cats that like to insert a forepaw under the sliding door when it's closed and pull so that the door lifts outward, then bangs back down, so we wanted to prevent them from doing that. But there's no floor guide. I don't remember whether the kit came with a floor guide, but my husband didn't use it (if it did), and we don't miss it.

I would think that if your cabin door has a frame, you could certainly install a bug off screen. The rod of the screen is a little bit thinner that a standard shower curtain rod. Make sure you order your screen 1 or 2 inches wider that the opening so the screen won't be tight.

This is for an extra-tall door, so make sure your sliding door is taller than average. The top piece is spring loaded so it gets put in place and then expands to fit snug. Your slider will only shut partway now, so you will have to fashion a dowel stop to keep it locked and secure from intruders since it will no longer lock normally! Hope this helps :)

It has these thick plastic tabs (I think 3) attached to the top of the door cover and the tabs slide into the window slip (where the glass goes up and down)

the screen I ordered came with adhesive strips installed on the glass hop this helps

The top of the screen is "joined" in the middle. You might be able to snip that tiny joined piece, making it in effect two "curtains" which you could slide to the jambs (provided the curtain rod you use is thin enough to allow some room in there).

It is a single slide width. Sliding doors have two slides.our doors slides are too wide apart. however if installed on fixed end of patiodoor, which means taking door apart, the screen would work, opening would not be as big.

yes, but the top and screens dont meet there is a about inch or so gap where the bugs just roll in

This slides into the channel on the aluminum sliding screen door. Most of these channels are the same size but you want to confirm this fits your channel.
