Can't find screen protector?

Q. I have been looking for a metal grille of a sort one used to see all the time, usually white, maybe 8 inches high, with a scroll or lattice design, to place across the lower part of the screen on the (inside) top half of my storm door. I'm tired of fixing the screen. It seems that when people open the door they lean an elbow or a hand against the screen to hold the door open, and pretty soon the screen has been pushed out.I went to Home Depot; they don't carry it. Also looked online, and looked at Lowe's, and many other stores. But it seems like the kind of screen protector I am looking for does not exist anywhere. Do you have any suggestions?A. I know what you're thinking about, and they do exist. They are aluminum grilles usually found on old-fashioned aluminum storm and screen doors, long before they came up with painted or anodized aluminum doors. Most were on the outside of the door, but because they are screwed on, they can be put outside or inside. Call Hadco Window and Door Manufacturing Co. in South Boston,who might be able to build you one.Comparing Laptop Repair And Desktop Pc Repair.If you can't find any, you can make one. Buy chrome towel racks, with a thin bar, to fit the width of your screen, and screw them on the inside. Use sheet metal screws to secure the racks to the aluminum door. Three or four racks will provide the proper height and spacing.
Q. My daughter is putting up a pressure-treated fence this summer at her home in Canada. What can she use to treat it and when?A. A pressure-treated fence needs no treatment, and will weather to an attractive medium-dark gray in a year or two. If your daughter wants to treat it, she should use a semitransparent stain; one coat every five to seven years that will not peel. She must wait six months to a year before treating it, to allow water to evaporate from the wood. She should also check environmental laws in Canada; they are likely to be different there.
Q. Every time we get a decent rain or downpour, I get this issue where it "rains" from the outer edge of the overhang so that it appears to be dripping from the soffit (underhang) on my side of the house. But my neighbor doesn't have this problem on his side. It's a side by side townhouse. No one has been able to tell me the cause, so I can't get it fixed. Do you have any thoughts?A. I see a downspout but no gutters. If there is a gutter on that overhang, it is mispositioned. If water drips near the back of the gutter, it will overflow the back, and run down the fascia (front edge of the overhang) until it drips off the front edge of the overhang.If water drips near the front of the gutter, it will overflow the front of the gutter and drip down the face and under the bottom of the gutter until it reaches the front edge of the overhang. Repositioning the gutter or drip edge so that water drips into the center of the gutter along its full length will correct this.
