Question : Can a Solar Screen be installed on a Door ? 

& Answer :  Absolutely!   Pictures A &  B)  For swing doors, we mount the solar screen within  the molding of the window frame.   Picture C)  For a flat installed rate of $150 (if accompanied with a solar window screen order for your house) we can custom build you an aluminum-framed sliding solar screen door out of either our 80% or 90% fabric.  We custom build our sliding solar screen doors specific to the measurements of your sliding door frame out of roll-formed Aluminum, not out of steel.  The steel framing which is widely used will rust unlike that of the sturdy and heavy-duty aluminum framing that we use. Our cost to build doors out of this heavier duty aluminum framing is more, but it is worth it (aluminum will not rust).  The framing we use is unlike anything you can buy off the shelf, it's very sturdy and heavy-duty.  And, we of course can roll any of our six colors of fabrics within the frame.  Optionally, if you would like to cover the non-opening portion of the door, we can build you a pocket (as shown in picture c).  The pocket we will mount to the outside of your sliding door frame covering the non-opening panel.  The solar screen door when in the open position will slide behind this pocket.  The installed cost for the pocket is a flat rate of $150 as well.  For the sliding screen door and the pocket both made out of the same heavy duty frame, rolled with either our 80% or 90% solar screen fabric, when accompanied with a 613" or over solar window screen order, is a minimal flat installed cost of $300 regardless of the sizes.    If you do not have a need for solar window screens, and only want the sliding door and pocket, the installed cost of $300 will apply, however there is an added measuring and installation trip cost of $130.  (Ex. If you want 1 pocket and door set, the cost will be $430, if you want 2 pocket and door sets the cost will be $730).  You can buy to self install my sliding door screens from HobbsScreens.com.
