Does yours have the magnets or a hook mechanism at top and bottom? Is it retracting properly? Just trying to get some clarity to what the problem is?



I'm just using these pictures as examples of phantom screen doors used on luxury RV's. I have noticed a couple styles on Newell. I purchased a retractable screen from Lowes, shortened it and put it on a 1986 Newell a while back, it worked great. It is very similar product to the old pull down shades, but a better designed spring type and roller mechanism. Just some thoughts and ideas on the matter. The retracting roller springs get weak over time and use.

Just an example of replacements at a huge savings from what the factory will charge for the DIY guy!
