Reinforced Fiberglass Garage Door Screen - Magnetic, Hands Free 16x7FT Screen for 2 Car Garage

I purchased this primarily to keep hummingbirds from getting trapped in my shop. They get confused by the white ceiling and lights and cannot find their way out. I purchased a butterfly net last year so that I could scoop them up and release them but wanted a better solution. This was it.The screen is very high quality with excellent fit and finish. My shop door is over 12 feet high and 12 feet wide but I bought the 12X8 size. I did not fasten the screen to the door frame but instead built a light frame of wood to set in the doorway. This sits just a few inches away from the door frame. This arrangement works very well to keep the hummers out as it presents a black opening that they are not interested in at all. So far I have not had one hummer even fly up to it. In this configuration it does help a bit with insects but obviously this arrangement will not keep them out since there are such large gaps on the sides but it does help. I did not buy it to keep bugs out anyway!The magnetic closure is quite handy and works well. My dogs have gotten used to the screen and readily part the screen (or just push under it) to get in and out of the shop.Great product and priced right. Very pleased with this purchase.

I have purchased, installed and used seven different magnetic screens over the last five years, and I can honestly say that THIS IS THE BEST MAGNETIC SCREEN DOOR FOR YOUR 2 CAR GARAGE!!The screen is made from very sturdy and strong material -it doesn’t rip easily! The Velcro is pre-sewn into the screen, and the Velcro that comes with the kit that attaches to the door surround is easy to work with, of very high quality, and lasts for YEARS! I’m replacing my old screen, but not the Velcro around my door! The original Velcro is still going and holding strong!The Velcro that goes across the top of the door frame is thicker than the Velcro along the sides! This is a great feature as it allows you to hang the dead-center (where the screen opens) an inch or two higher than the rest of the top, without having to try to arch the Velcro! It also gives it even better staying power! This screen is the perfect size for use around a 2 car garage! It is listed as being 16’ by 7’, but actually even the one listed as such, is actually 16.3’ by 7.15’, -which is great, as the extra inches are often needed to get a proper fit! (A 16’ panel will not cover a 16’ opening! U need an extra inch or two on each side to reach the sides where the Velcro goes)!I just ordered my second one of this same screen last night, and it arrived this morning before noon! I couldn’t believe the price it is selling for right now- under $50!!! I paid $85 for my original screen, and felt it was a great deal for that price! For the current sale price of $47, I’m half tempted to order 10 more! They really are the best available -trust me, I tried several others before finally finding this one, the best of all! I ordered this second screen because the original eventually got too many little rips in it from my husband being careless, and catching it with sharp tools! I sewed each the rips up, and that worked just fine, but I decided I wanted a nice new one for when guests come over! This screen turns our garage into an enjoyable bonus room! It keeps ALL bugs outside!!!There are more magnets in this screen than any of the others I’ve tried, and these magnets are bigger, stronger, and sewn the fabric! It closes tightly and completely! NO BUGS CAN GET IN! This screen also has several little weights sewn into the bottom, which help to hold it in place -I’ve found that moving one weight to each far side, and one right at the opening of each side, really helps everything stay in place and close quickly/immediately behind you!This screen also has several little clip ties on the top of the screen that allow u to roll the screen door up and secure it, when you need it out of the way! It’s a nice feature that many other brands do not have!If you are shopping for the best magnetic screen door for your 2 care garage, (or equivalent size opening), search no further!THIS IS THE ONE U WANT!

This arrived quickly and undamaged. I ordered it for entertainment events, only. Once in place, it perfectly kept out flying insects and provided coolness in the garage on a very hot day. I was able to install it in about 15 minutes (and I am elderly). I did take some liberties with the installation instructions. The wood board at the top of the interior of my garage is divided in 3 and there is space in between them so I cut the velcro to fit each board. I then used the tacks supplied to further secure the velcro adhesion. Finally, starting from the middle, making sure the middle was aligned slightly higher, I carefully placed the screen across the velcro strip, uniformly, and skipping the spaces. I did not use velcro along the sides. I used one tack to secure it about a foot from the floor on each side. It was perfect! The magnetic separation used for entry was great. Hands free! Tight closure every time. At the end of the party I easily removed the screen and folded it up for the next party. I would not leave it up because I have a metal garage door and I do not want to take a chance at the magnets attaching themselves to the door and ripping the screen or damaging the garage door. The screen material was good quality. It made the room very comfortable. I would advise cutting any loose strings rather than trying to tear them off. One added bonus I wasn't expecting is that it also gave an element of privacy.I gave it overall 4 stars because one should not expect the adhesive to hold when removing the screen if the tacks are not in place. But this is a great buy for me and served its purpose well.
