Security screen doors in Orange, CA
A screen door worthy of the Plaza's century-old porches.
Made for Orange
Doors that fit how Orange lives
A block off the Plaza in Old Towne Orange, the twentieth century is still very much in residence: Craftsman bungalows with deep porches, Victorian cottages, hipped-roof farmhouses from the citrus years, all kept with the kind of care that has made this one of California's best-preserved historic districts. These are houses that were born with screen doors - the porch, the screen, and the evening breeze were a single system - and owners here tend to be exacting about keeping the look right. Good. So are we. A Daylight Steel door is, visually, a proper old-fashioned screen door: slim frame, finish-matched to period trim, and a fine weave of 316 marine-grade stainless steel where the screen cloth used to be.
What is new is that the weave functions as a locked door. The front door of a 1915 bungalow can stand open through an Orange summer evening - air moving down the hall, the porch and the street in plain view, every insect refused at the threshold - with the house fully secured the entire time. Our own installers measure each opening, which century-old frames genuinely require, and the finished door hangs true without disturbing original casings. In Old Towne, respect for the house comes first. This door was built agreeing with that.

Asked in Orange
Will a security screen door look right on my Old Towne Orange bungalow?
It is designed to. The profile is a traditional screen door's - narrow frame, no bars, no ornamental metalwork - with finishes that sit comfortably against Craftsman and Victorian trim. On porch-fronted houses that originally shipped with screen doors, ours reads as a faithful, better-built descendant. Neighbors are more likely to ask where you found it than to notice it is a security product.
Can you install without damaging original door casings and trim?
Yes - preservation of the existing entry is a first principle. The security screen mounts to the opening without altering your historic door, casing, or hardware, and our installer measures the true dimensions of frames that have settled over a century. If you ever removed the door, the original entry would remain exactly as it was.
How does pricing work, and do historic homes cost more?
Our pricing is published on the website - openly, which is almost unheard of in this industry - and historic homes use the same price list as everyone else. Nonstandard opening sizes are simply part of custom fabrication, not a surcharge category. You will know the realistic range before our installer ever knocks on your door.
Do the doors help with airflow in older houses without central air?
Substantially. Many Old Towne homes rely on the evening cross-breeze the way they did a century ago, and a locked security screen on the front and back doors lets that system work at full strength for hours. The 316 stainless mesh keeps every insect out while the house exhales the day's heat - original engineering, modern materials.
