Maui Screen Doors - Handcrafted Aluminum Screen Doors designed for years of trouble free operation in extreme environments!
Living in the Hawaiian Islands is a dream-come true, the climate is beautiful and the trade winds bring a year round breeze for you to enjoy. Having Screen Doors installed on your homes entrances, front and back, allow you to let those trade winds in while keeping the pests out.
Additional maintenance issues come with the beautiful breezes that the Hawaiian Islands are known for. The corrosive effects of the salt air can quickly take their toll any products exposed to the elements. And it is not uncommon to see the screen mesh separate from the door frame because of the higher winds so prevalent in the islands.
The Right Screen Door Will Add Curb Appeal in Maui
Most people don’t put much thought into purchasing a screen door, but durability is a major concern when it comes to home maintenance in an island environment.

Have you been searching for a screen door that is sturdy enough to hold up to your unique climate in the Hawaiian Islands?
Are you tired of replacing your screen door every year due to structural failure, screen blow out or rust issues?
How to Choose the Best Screen Door for your Front Door or Screen Patio in Maui.
Screen doors can be manufactured with a variety of materials such as steel, vinyl, and aluminum just to a name a few. Which is best suited for your home and lifestyle?
.
Steel screen doors – strong but they require ongoing maintenance
The reason many people purchase steel doors is for their structural stability which can be hard to find in other screen doors. The simple fact is steel rusts but they can still be found all over the islands.
The frame of these screen doors will hold up to the strong trade winds the Hawaiian Islands are known for but within a few months a the frame and screen will rust from the constant salt air that comes along with those winds.
The buildup of rust can quickly become a safety hazard to your kids and pets.
Inexpensive aluminum screen doors can be misleading at best
Aluminum screen doors can be a good option because they don’t rust like steel. Many are purely functional with no aesthetic appeal such as the one pictured. In an effort to trim production cost some manufacturers cut corners resulting in a product that doesn’t hold up like it should. Homeowners think they are making a good choice until the failures start.
Flimsy designed screen doors require unsightly grills to be placed in front of the screen because even with slight pressure applied the screen can easily come out. Inferior corners and thin wall frames can cause the door to bend or twist. The 3 hinge design is not sufficient to prevent sagging and over time it can eventually cause the screen door to stop closing properly. Most are finished with a baked on enamel paint which sounds good but really doesn’t’ hold up to the harsh salt air environment of the Hawaiian Islands.
Last but not least, vinyl screen doors are your other option.
These They do offer some attractive designs but most are cheaply manufactured and will not last in the high wind environment that the trade winds bring.Structural failure is the biggest problem with vinyl screen doors. Many times you will see tension cables on these doors to try to keep them in square because structurally they can’t maintain their shape.
This is often a point of discussion on DIY websites; here is just one example – click here to read more
Vinyl when used to construct a screen door is a flimsy material that twists, cracks and separates in high winds, this also leads to many screen blow outs and maintenance issues. Why purchase a screen door that you will be replacing year after year?
