MaKefeile No-Drilling Retractable Screen Door, Folding Sliding Screen Doors with Aluminum Frame for Patio French Front Door Bedroom kitchen, Custom Screen for Single/Double Door, Customize Size, White

This was easily the easiest and most rewarding DIY project I’ve taken on in recent memory. Really neat product. Fit perfectly. Set it up in 10 min.

I was very skeptical when purchasing this product. However, it arrived today to prove me wrong! Took less than 5 minutes to assemble. It fits so perfectly and snuggly in the door frame that there is not even a need for the (plentiful) 3M tape that was provided. A little pop with a rubber mallet and it was an exact fit. Retracts smoothly. Doesn’t look “cheap”. Screen is durable enough to keep my kitties inside. I’m seriously loving this purchase!

My new apartment balcony door was this heavy door without a mesh screen. My cats would ALWAYS run out to the balcony as soon as I opened the door - which is partially my doing as I am training them to be comfortable with the outdoors so that we can start going on harnessed hikes and walks. My kitten had an interest in walking along the railing and I knew there would be a day where he jumps 4 stories down. Living in San Diego, I desperately desired the breezy, movie nights in a Friday but I could never leave the door open without standing at it the whole time to make sure these little nuggets don’t jump. I decided to bite the bullet and ordered the screen door bc it was the ONLY solution that 1) seemed effective and 2) wasn’t hideous. Sure enough, my cat jumped down 4 stories and my other kitten came to warn me. I was so thankful that my screen door would be arriving within a few days. This was pretty much preassembled but the mesh screen strings at the top kept making the door stuck from opening properly. What I did to fix this was take a serious look at how it was designed and what was going wrong. I then detached the pre-assembled SIDE panels, fix the string configuration and reattached them. This did the trick. The tape they provide is EXTREMELY strong but still didn’t damage the door frame. The mistake I made was that I placed more tape along the sides than what was needed and this made inserting the door more annoying than it should have been. Because the tape is so strong, it immediately sticks to the side panels which makes readjusting challenging. So just keep this in mind. Even if your measurements are off by an inch or so, as long as you positions the screen door to site on the bottom comfortably, the most important measurement is your width. This is bc you NEED the screen door to be securely taped to the sides for proper opening and closing. But the height is not nearly as important. It’s more important if you’re worried about aesthetics (so that no spacing shows). Mine ever so slightly off, but once assembled, you can barely tell. My width was spot on and this allowed the panels to to stick strongly so that even with force from sliding the screen open and close constantly, it doesn’t even budge. The mesh is good quality. In fact, my oldest cat (18 years old) didn’t realize there was a screen and accidentally ran into the first time. Although the mesh screen is black, it it quite transparent and that was something I appreciated so much being that it’s right in my living room. Although the mesh is strong, it is not cat proof. My cat has climbed, bit and does everything he could to use it as a toy. There is some training involved with this, so I purchased deterrent spray and am hoping that will work. Even with his climbing though, the screen door has held up. He has made holes into it which I will patch with clear nail polish, and I’m not sure how much climbing it will take, but that is not the responsibility of the door lol. Anyway, I am now enjoying the beautiful breeze during moving nights and I am SO THANKFUL this thing exists!!!! My last apartment didn’t have front door screen and I wish I knew of this at that time. To have this solution is a huge win.

I live in a small studio apartment and it’s positioned in a way where if I had the door opened, a relaxing wind current flows in and through the apartment. I bought this specific screen door over others because of the reviews: There was a review with a really pretty picture of the screen door at a nice looking apartment balcony, and another review saying that customer service was great. Upon checking other similar items, I ended up going with this brand because of the said reviews. I’m glad I did. The product is fantastic. It’s definitely built for rental properties as it doesn’t require any permanent fixings to be able to use this screen door. The screen is really nice. It looks pleasing to the eye even though it’s not made of tough, durable material (it’s a strong mesh material, but not like made of woven metal or anything, which is totally fine for me! Makes the weight of the door light and portable!). But for a rental unit, this is perfect. It definitely has kept flies and other bugs out of our apartment, so I’m thankful for that. I ended up using the black 3M command strips for the adhesive. This is so that I can remove the adhesives if/whenever I move out, without peeling off any paint. The 3M command strips work like a charm and I definitely recommend that addition to your screen door too. Overall, I’m extremely happy with this product. It is an aesthetic and functional screen door that fits with the dimensions of our unit and is suitable for rental properties. Sometimes I stop to look at the screen door because it just looks so chic and pretty and wonderful. It retracts well and definitely adds an elevated element to our old apartment building. I think it will hold up well. I really do think it’s a wonderful, great product. Yay!

Installing it was a breeze for one person! Just be sure to measure everything carefully. Mine was a tad too snug along the length, which made the door a bit of a clunky operation. I’m not sure my kids could even open or close it. If your measurements are spot on, I think it would work much better. Also, I’d suggest adding the lock. If my door wasn’t so snug along the length, it might not close completely and leave a tiny gap.

Great product! The key of course is following their measurement instructions exactly. It arrived with both screws and double sided tape options. We went with the tape and are really pleased with this retractable screen door.

I am absolutely thrilled with this screen door. At first, I was a little scared to order because the size is custom and you can't return it. I'm so glad I decided to take a chance Note of caution...make sure to read the instructions very carefully on how to measure your door frame and then measure 3 or 4 times to make sure you have the right dimensions. It was delivered when promised and packaged very well. It was very easy to put together and appears to be made of good solid material. I also love the design of the screen itself. I live in an apartment complex and I'm pretty limited with any choices of a screen but this makes it easy to get a nice breeze, looks great and is definitely worth the money. The only thing that I found to be a little frustrating was putting the frame in place with the tape. It's not that the instructions were bad. However, if your door frame isn't even, there are going to be really, really tight places and I found it to be challenging. After a lot of swearing, maneuvering and readjusting the tape I was finally able to get the screen frame plum with the door frame. My suggestion is to put the frame of the screen in place and only tape the areas where there are some gaps. Once the tape is peeled, even the way they show you to do it, the thickness of the tape in those tight areas makes it difficult to readjust because the tape is stuck to the door frame. A little patience goes a long way. With that aside, I would definitely recommend this company and this product.

The item is great and would’ve tried to make it work however, the sizing were off even after following instructions on measurement. Customer support tried to make up for it by having me order a different item they sell in order for me to pay for the shipping cost of $80+. I was happy to get the “replacement” but when I tried to put it up, the replacement still was bigger so I had ended up having 2 Screens that can’t be used :(
