No matter what the season, there are always flying bugs, crawling bugs, and other uninvited little guests who are not welcome in your home. But who wants to always keep the doors closed? And who doesn’t love the smell of fresh air from the outdoors wafting through your home? You could hire a handyman to install an expensive framed screen door. Or you could get great results by taking a few minutes to get ahead on that honey-do list by putting up one of these magnetic screen doors. You’ll see our attraction to these magnetic screen doors. Take a look at our top recommended ones.
26 magnets
When carrying bags of groceries, we love that we can open this door without using our hands. Just push through the generous rows of magnets and the door opens and then closes. The heavy-duty black screen has reinforced corners to keep bugs out season after season. We like how the matching black frame is a snap to put up with hook and loop closures. It will fit standard size exterior door openings – 38 x 82.
For parties and everyday use
We love that rather than just a few Velcro-like tabs along the edges of screens, the hook-and-eye tape runs along the whole length of the door frame. It even comes with extra matching push pins to keep the frame in place. It’s also got little screen tiebacks to hold the sides of the magnetic screen doors open. While some screens only have small hook-and-eye strips every so often, this model has a Velcro-like strip that attaches it to the entire door frame.
Great durability
We love all the magnets, so you don’t need your hands to open and close this door. There is nothing quite as exasperating as trying to catch that one most annoying mosquito that snuck in your room. Why not quickly put up some screen curtains and keep your house insect-free all year long? This magnetic screen door fits most doors and has extra seaming at the top to keep the opening free of rips. The gravity sticks at the bottom keep the screen from blowing open in the wind. Enjoy the things we love about the outdoors (like the great fresh air) without the hassles of those things we don’t.
Good longevity
We love that these magnetic screen doors are crafted from fiberglass mesh. Frame and mesh are white, so it won’t distract from doorway architecture. The little windproof stickers in the middle and on the bottom keep the door from flapping open. Just follow the directions in the included manual and voila, your pets can wander in and out without you.
Reinforced design
This magnetic screen door is a little narrower – for 32-inch wide doors, and a little taller for 90-inch high doors. If you’ve got kids and dogs, this magnetic screen door is a long-lasting choice. The thicker fiberglass threads mean the screens are strong and durable. It has push pins to keep the frame tight, and there are hasp closures to keep the curtain closed. Let the sunshine in and not the bugs with this Yotache magnetic screen door.
