Use What you Have

Because we mounted the ledger between the floors (to take advantage of the structural strength) we had the dryer vent obstacle to mess with. We decided to cut a 2 1/2 inch diameter hole in the ledger. Because this isn't a kit...it didn't come with screen to cover this hole with. So instead of running to the store, we used what we had. The screen door was right there screaming to be cut into. Now.... of course this decision was not made lightly. We need a new one - three years ago we spray painted an area that was discolored. We also have a hole in it - so honestly this was no big loss. The only problem is we now MUST replace it. No procrastination allowed. (Update 9/23 - still no new screen door. Place your bets now that this task will be completed in 2007.....)
