I am needing to know where I can get the hidden screen door that rolls away to the side. I am working on the dressing room in my new trailer, and it doesn't have a camper screen door.
If all else fails, I did find a cheap one that rolls up to the top, but would really prefer the other. It just looks nicer.

If push comes to shove< I bought some screen fabric from the hardware store and sewed a loop in the top put a long spring in it to hang it up with and some magnets ti hold it in place.Not real expensive and works pretty good.

I put the spring in the top to attach it to the inside if the doorway to support the screen, this lets it hang like a curtin and you just push it asitd to go in and out. You can find a long spring at the hardware store or use a bunje cord.

Beware......if you travel with small dogs and have this type of screen door. It does not take much pressure against it before it just springs open. A riding buddy of mine has not only had a problem with her dogs pushing it open but with outside dogs coming up to sniff her pups and causing the screen door to pop open. The dealer has tried to adjust it but nothing worked so far. For now, she has to put in a pet gate across it and go in and out the mudroom door. I am not sure of the manufacturer. It is on a 2005 Elite 3H LQ.

I camped with a friend for 4 years that started out with one of these and after about a year, she got rid of it. It was diffult to keep it closed, it would get out of alignment, etc and we didn't have any dogs or kids traveling with us. She's got a Sundowner trailer, so she had to buy a whole new door and get one that clips onto the main door. Big expense, but she's very glad she has this type now.
