Snavely International TO2221 84" Instant Mesh Screen Door

Amazon Customer: Used this in mosquito country during the summer and loved it. Easy to install and take down for winter. I felt that the netting was strong enough for me to go in and out carrying wood or tools. No rips. Notice the dimensions. They are exact, no overlap if your door is the same size. I added some 1x4 stripping on the outside of the garage door so I would have something to put the velcro on. Then I stapled the velcro because it didn't want to stick to wood. I may add some duct tape edging to the middle seam (the one you will use regularly), just because it seems like it could rip or catch sometime, but I didn't need to this summer and I used it a lot. I am glad I spent a little extra and got a quality product.

Update: still using it four years later. It has taken a beating but still works great! No holes. One small tear because I stepped on it. I use it all summer and take it down in the fall. Great purchase!

D. Ange: This is the greatest purchase in a long time! The screen installed very quickly with no issues. It fit my single car garage door perfectly. I love it! I can work in the garage without bugs or birds flying in. I allows light through but from the outside, it looks black so I don't have prying eyes from the road. I should have bought this years ago. Definitely a great purchase!

mirlen101: Extremely thin light material . I was amazed how transparent it looks . Doesn't seem to shut out hardly any light at all .I saw a few flaws in the material . Nothing all that annoying .The roll up lines could have more guidance as to staying in line . They tend to get off kilter . Fairly easy to install . But watch out for width . No instructions as to what one does if your width is narrower . I'm having to cut and surge the edge on one . Surge ; means to sew the edge with a locking loop seam . Only certain sewing machines can do this . The edges on the screens when you get them are already surged . So if you cut one it really needs resurging of the cut edge . Wind will blow the screens around near the bottom . So I'm attaching tiny rare earth magnets to mine to the bottom edge tubing with small metal plates embedded in the concrete so the bottom edge locks in place . The opening will take more thought so I can swing it open and still have the added magnets grab it to stay put in the wind . Again these bottom magnets I'm adding myself they do not come with the kit .
There are magnets at the openings that are included though . They are so the seems of the...

Lynette G. Hughes: It keeps bugs out mostly. It keeps prying eyes from seeing too much as they drive by. My main purpose in obtaining a garage door screen. It is not made to endure constant entry and exit because the quality is not top notch. But if you live alone and go and just want the security, people and bugs, this will work. For the money, no complaints.

Bennett: I think this is pretty good value compared to the alternatives. I live in wisconin and little bit cooler weather and I noticed the velcro wasn't sticking very good, but this is EASILY resolved with a staple gun. I used 3 staples 1/4" in each velcro piece and have had no problem with it holding. I did have some issues with the metal rings coming apart, but I dont think thats going to really matter as the velcro is what holds it up mostly. I emailed the seller and he sent me a replacement. Terrific guy. All in all its not a 300.00 screen like the ones at home depot, but it keeps the bugs out. Does what I want it to do and I am satisfied for what it is.
