Retractable Screen Doors
Your Mirage screen door is designed to be stored away in its protective housing at the side of the door when not in use. To avoid possible damage, it is highly recommended that whenever the wind ‘picks up,’ the screen door is stored away, as you would do with other items such as patio sun umbrellas.
Usually, during windy periods, there is little or no concern with flying insects. We caution that you do not leave the screen door in place specifically to block wind gusts from entering the home or for a sense of security; or for any other purpose for which the screen was not specifically designed. While the screen does work well in a moderate breeze, strong wind gusts may blow the mesh out of the top and bottom tracks causing undue wear that is not covered by warranty.

Retractable Screen Doors
- Regularly clean the bottom screen door track of debris, small stones, and pet hair.
- Annually clean tracks, housing, and screen mesh with warm, soapy water and dry them with a clean, soft cloth.
- Following the annual screen door cleaning, lubricate the top and bottom tracks with a good-quality silicone spray lubricant.
- In particularly high-traffic or dusty areas, cleaning and lubrication will be needed more frequently.
- Introduce your pets to the screen door and train them to respect it as you would any other household fixture.
- Retract the Mirage screen door into its housing when not in use. This will keep the screen from being damaged by the elements and help keep it clean.
