They do make a roll-up screen door that is remote controlled. This to me is the better alternative. If you leave home, with the sliders - you usually close the garage door and leave the slider open since you have to get out of the car to close it. Therefore we are pretty sure you are not at home, With the roll-up screen door, you can close it when you leave (or leave it up since it does not show. You also have the full garage door opening and this would be good for the 1.5 car garages.

The neighbor down the street put one in. The hand remote operates both the garage door and the roll-up screen door.

They are a bit more expensive but probably worth the bucks.

I do not have any the sliders since I keep the garage door closed but I do keep up on them.
