Lexan / Plexiglass

We're adding coverage over our screen door and are wondering if you added Lexan or Plexiglass to your door. If so, which one did you go with? Did you get clear or tinted? Do you wish you had chosen something different? Thanks for your feedback.

Lexan it's much better than Plexaglas. I've machined both. The Lexan won't crack or break.

I used plexiglass nearly 5 years ago and it still looks good but next time will use Lexan just for peace of mind.

Clear lexan doesn't yellow and is stronger than plexi.

Dark tinted lexan, but we spend most of our time in bright sunshine.
