We have had a couple of snakes in our garage. I hate snakes....all snakes. The geckos eat the bugs.

Your house is probably much newer than ours(1999). However, we just had to special order a screen door. Did it through Romac. Have not received it yet. There should be a sticker, probably in the upper frame of the door, or elsewhere, that will give you the model, serial # or information you need to order.
Not cheap though.

I was going to try the big box store screen doors also but did not know how to squeeze a screen door into my car. I called warranty dept also, used T&D as they were my subcontractor for the sliders. I was not sure I could have initially install them but since have removed them for cleaning, so I guess I could have installed them & saved some money. But the size was not standard. If your size is odd, try Cook's aluminum for another quote. They may be able to do something unique.

I contacted The Villages Warranty dept and they gave me the name of the original installer. There was an exact matching screen slider (not included of course) , I contacted them and for some small amount of money they ordered and delivered it. Perfect match and fit, no problem, glad I did it.

This worked out great for me also.

I’m asking about a screen for a 3 panel patio door. Only two panels open. Has anyone installed a screen door that they’re happy with in a 3 panel sliding door opening?

I posted earlier in this thread, that according to the original sliding door installers there is no screen door offered by the mfr. I have Romac coming out next week to offer suggestions for an after market screen door. Seems like it may be an expensive solution to keep a few anoles out of the house. Last one I found was sitting on my night table, but better I found it than my wife.

Well, even with only a few anoles coming to your house you'd better find better friends.


Oh, wait, never mind. You said ANOLES! I need new glasses.

So far, so good.
Picked one up today. $80 and 30 minutes later all done and perfect. Thanks for the suggestion.
