Door Widths: Measure the top, middle and bottom widths of the screen door; send us the largest of the three measurements. Door Height: Measure from top to bottom of the screen door on both the left and right hand sides; send us the shortest of the two measurements. Lock Height: You can use the existing lock height if desired; first make sure that the new handle will not interfere with the existing glass door handle, do this by referring to the Lock Above & Lock Below instructions at the bottom of the page. Then measure from the bottom of the existing screen door up to the centre of the existing striker, this will be the centre of the new striker and screen door handle.

Door Width (without a receiving interlock): If there is no receiving interlock and you elect to have a bug seal, measure to the back, glass side of the fixed panel (1.2). Door Height: Measure lengths at three to four points along the track; take this measurement from the top of the bottom track, to the bottom of the top track, deduct 12 mm from the shortest length and record this measurement. Your track will either have a raised rail (1.3) or it will be a flat U-shaped section (1.4). If a variation of more than 4 mm exists this may result in the door not sliding properly, and additional tracking may have to be installed to make tracks parallel. Frame InterlocksFrame Interlocks are supplied with all Seconline double sliding screen doors; the purpose of interlocks is to lock the back of the sliding door into the fixed panel simultaneously as the doors are locked togther in the centre, this ensures that the door is locked on both sides.
