    this is genius, last year we had to get it done quickly on our old porch, i just stapled screen to the wood and survived the winter wind by re stapling jt as they blew off every now and then- this year i am doing section of my porch at a time to redo it, pulling the staples, staining, and screening this way. i'm so excited because of this video! thank you!

    Someone else may have fommented this already. I have made the mistake of not fully undercutting the jamb. I just undercut the door teim and the notch. You clearlt cut the entire jamb casing. Thats helpful as well and an important first step before even trying to cut it in. Ive said more curse words doing this than just about anything. Very helpful.

    Aaron, I built a porch and couldn’t find a way to screen it properly. This seems like the fix. May I ask, what lumber pieces do you have? It looks like 2x2 pine. Is it treated? Also, the other Issue I ran into is screening materials. I only found screens 3 feet wide and my windows are about the size you have. What size lumber and screen did you get and where did you find it? Thank you, Aaron

    Honestly this is better and easier than those screen systems you buy (the vinyl and aluminum ones). Speaking from experience. I have the aluminum Screen Tight system, and installing screen is a pain. My screen needs replacing so tearing the track out and just covering stapled screen with 1x material. This is a cleaner look and you don’t have to mess around with cutting and installing the track and the screen with spline. Cheaper too. Also, buying a power or air stapler makes things 10x easier.

    Thanks for this video! I stay in a mobile home park in Louisiana. I’m allergic to mosquitoes! I end up in the doctors office every summer because of mosquito bites. I’m determined to NOT be inside during the summer this year 😂. I’ve got my mosquito machine and solar ceiling fan ready but I needed to screen the porch for more comfort. I bought tinted screen for privacy.

    Just seems like it would be very difficult to replace the screen later once the house has some age on it, and something happens to the screen. I think I would rather install the screen with the rope that goes in around the frame which will make it easy to re-screen years down the road
