Mine has 2.0 , maybe 2 1/4 max. Has anyone installed their own and come across this?
The problem would be that the door knob on the actual door would stick out too far, I think and so the screen door wouldn't close. How can I get around it?
I'd somehow shim the screen door out a 1/2". What type of trim is around the exterior of the door frame? Is it standard brick moulding?
