As some are already aware, we live in a rather old (by Canadian standards) double-brick house that was built in 1908. I love old homes but of course they have their issues like wiring, plumbing....etc. Well my big Newfie knows he can open our front screen door. But he won't do it when you are around, he'll wait (like he does with stealing things from the counter) until he knows you are out of range and then will bolt, in this case, taking off after a squirrel.
So my wife and I went shopping for a new screen door today. That proved to be an unexpected issue.
The opening is 85" tall by 34" wide. Apparently that's very large. The standard size seems to max out at 80" tall. This means that we are looking at a custom door, and with it comes the custom price tag. Home Depot can't even get them. Home Hardware, same deal. Rona said they might be able to order it and are going to get back to me tomorrow. The wait time is a minimum of four weeks because it will have to be built..... arg
