raltd9245 Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I have a bit of trouble at the fact that a "Mature Residential CAD Software" does not have a Screen Door in its libs. But they have colored coat hangers GO FIGURE. Does anyone know where a screen door resides THANKS Ron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 You simply use a glass panel door and set the frame size and change the glass to screen material from the library. Save as needed to your library. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CV-reno Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Gets complicated when adding a sliding screen door to the outside an existing sliding patio door. Need a wall offset (2.5" in my case), panels 0 left 1 right, no casing, no lintel, no jamb. If you adjust any door parameter, panels get reset so you need to go set again. And you need to show the screen door closed or else the glass door exterior casing adjusts to the screen door. I may be missing something here, help me out. Just wish screen doors would be an option for sliding doors and let CA adjust everything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You find a thread that is very slightly related to your question, then add it to that already existing thread, when it's best to start a new Topic and ask your question there. Doing so helps keep the forum organized, and helps when people are searching for answers. Comments may be deleted via the 3 dots to the top right. I'm really sorry to have apparently hijacked a thread where the OP asked about a screen door and I posted about issues around a sliding screen door, hoping Joey might have some suggestions. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joey_martin Posted January 29, 2022 Share Posted January 29, 2022 For a slider, in my opinion the easies solution is to just create the screen to the spec and create a symbol that can be placed into the opening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
