My door is 36" wide - I bought 2 boxes. How should I connect them to each other '- just more velcro strips?

Kay, you will only need one box per door. Each box comes with two halves of the screens that are 21 inches wide, which should be more than enough for your door. I used the velcro strips to temporarily put up the screen then immediately followed up with the tacks once I had it placed correctly. I did this because after having my dog test the screen with just the velcro it began coming unstuck from around the door.

Kay you should only need one box for the door. The Velcro isn't to great I put it up with the Velcro just to place it where I wanted it. I then used the tacks but after the continuous use from my kids and dogs they weren't holding either. So I used screws and the hand drill. There has not been an issue since!

This rack is 24" most doors are 28" so unless you do like I did and first mount a piece of 2X1 wood to fasten at the edge for your door. Then fasten rack to that. Also measure for clearance when door is opened so that it does not hit wall. Good luck

Yes it will fit a 36" door. You won't have to cut the foam, it was designed with a standard 3ft door in mind. You'd only have to cut if the door were smaller than that. It would not reach all the way across anything wider though.

our door is 30 inches, and it fits that well, with about an inch of the adjustable bolts out on each side. I think to make it fit 33, you would need the extender they advertise, and to not have to turn the bolts out as far as we do after that was added. Might work okay, but will add to the cost.

I'd buy 2. They are very thin and you could stick the first on the door and the second strip to it to close any gaps

I bought the smaller model ("up to 33 inch door opening") and it would have about 1.5"+ of overhang on each side of a 33" (i.e. maximum-sized) door. So the one that says 37" max will probably have at least 2" of contact against either side of a 36" door.

best way I can think of if you have the space is to bolt both racks back to back (2 on the front and two on the back. Then secure using plumbers tape or something that can be attached to the wall or ceiling. Lose a little space in one place but save the space of that the other rack would have used

i have 36" windows and it seemed there was enough slack for a little more. to be absolutely sure, contact Sunpen.

I found on my 30" X 20" door that both were needed. It was not opening even with only one. You might can get away with it since it is a smaller door...I'd order two to be safe and send the extra one back if you can make one work.

The next available size door is a 36". This will allow you to have a 2" overhang on each side of the 32" opening.

My door is 36 inches and there seems to be plenty left over in the adjustable/expandable bar at the top to fit yours. That's the best I can give you without taking it down. Hope this helps.

I haven't tried doing that, but it should work. The Velcro connection is the whole length of the strips.

Hey, tikmol! I would use Velcro since it makes the job much easier. Also, the door bell comes with screws but didn't have any holes to put them through on the bell. Confusing, but Velcro works so well that I didn't really care.

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.

I looked at the different extensions compatible with the gate system. I played with measurement numbers. For instance, start with the longest extension and add another until you exceed the desired number. Then, consider the other shorter extensions until you get as close to 48.5" as possible. Remember, the system comes with arms at the top and bottom that compensate for about 3" on each side. I hope this helps. Best wishes!
