Ben
& Lynn's Screen Door (1961 13' Front Kitchen)
This Scotty came with the jalousy windowed door and did not
have the combination door/screen door hinge. Ben fabricated a wooden bifold
screen for it. He included a loose hinge pin on the inside of
the door so it can be swung as a single piece door when in camp, but remove
the pin and it folds accordion style so as to make it less invasive on the
interior when all is closed up.
Bi-fold screen door frame hinged and mocked up to finish detailing. Works well!
Screen door mortised hinge detail. Necessary
to make the seam between
the closed door sections tight as possible. We
are trying to keep bugs out here!
Poplar screen door frame gouged/chiseled out to accept the small finger latch.
Screen door with small "flush" recessed finger latch. This was necessary
as to
not catch clothing/objects on the screen
door latch upon entering through
the already too-small opening.
Loose pin hinge on the inside of the bi-fold screen
door allows the door
sections to be easilly locked together to operate
as one unit, but the loose
pin is easy to remove for bi-fold feature. The screen
door frame will also be installed using three loose pin hinges to
make entire unit's removal easy.
Screen door spring loaded clasp hardware.
This will keep the screen
door tightly closed when desired but easy to
open for exit or entry.
