I've decided that this winter I'll build a screen door for my back door.
It opens onto a covered porch, so, other than windblown rain and snow, its
pretty sheltered. Never gets direct sun.
I'm wondering what wood folks would recommend? The porch is mahogany, so
that's a good starting place...
I'm planning on fairly traditional constructions - M+T, screens secured in
grooves (probably as removable panels for easy maintenance), no storm
panels. Haven't decided on if it needs a spring or just a latch.......
Any thoughts on things to watch out for, or be concerned about?
thanks
