Garage Door Screens

Garage door screens are a must have if you want to get some fresh air during the summertime without getting eaten alive.

They range from super inexpensive and lightweight to professionally installed screen systems that integrate with your garage door.  Prices increase with durability and ease of set up.  Installation is generally easy.  Be sure to measure your garage door opening so you know what size you need.

If you only need to use it once or twice a year, you will do just fine with a budget model.  The Pure Garden screen is a simple and easy solution and can usually be found at a low price.  Most people are pretty happy with it and find that it actually stands up to heavy usage.  It has a convenient magnetic closure, but unfortunately it doesn’t roll up so you do have to take it down to drive a car in.

The Anaconda Garage Door Screen is a similar product.

If you need a heavy duty, quality screens that can be put in place pretty quickly and easily and won’t cost you an arm and a leg, the DermaPAD is a solid option.  It has the ability to roll up and store at the top of your garage opening, so as long as you have sufficient clearance for you vehicle it can stay in place and be quickly deployed when needed.  It also has a magnetic closure and is strong and durable.

If you are going to be using your screen all the time, and want to easily be able to open it to pull and vehicle in or out, it may be worth your while to get the LifeStyle Screen, which basically operates like a second garage door.  This creative design is high quality and great for heavy usage.  The picture does not really show you how it works, but it opens as one piece like an old flip up garage door.  It stores in the open position, just underneath your garage door, giving it just enough room to operate as usual.
