I don't know if this will help or not, but there are a couple of things that can be done to the screen door to allow the outer door to stay open. Several members have mounted plexiglass panels on the screen door (mirror hangers or similar attachment methods). I am sure that smoked plexiglass is available that could be used. My super-cheap fix that I used made use of a plastic mylar sheeting that is available in the craft (fabric) area at Walmart. The total cost was about $3.00. We used clear but there is now smoke color available as well that I will be switching to this year. I removed the screen door, and used a screen edging tool. I removed the rubber edging from the door, and laid the mylar film over the screen and re-installed the edging while pulling the mylar film taut. We leave the outer door open all time. Just a thought,
Bingo
Bingo, I like your idea. Do you happen to have pictures? We're using the plexiglass but your idea is something I'd like to know more about. Thanks.
