I hate my phantom retractable screen door from the porch to the back yard. But I LOVE my Phantom motorized retractable screens. The screen door floats in the frame, so when it’s windy, the screen blows inward & bugs get still get in at the top and bottom. The bottom track stays dirty with leaves, bugs & dirt which makes it hard to open. It’s such a pain that I only open it when I have to. I spray out the bottom track with compressed air & then apply the silicone spray from Phantom, but it’s hard to open/close again in less than a week. The motorized screens don’t float in the frame, so they are awesome. I wanted an out-swing screen door, but the installers said they only do retractable. If the retractable screen door led from the house to the porch, it wouldn’t be a problem since things wouldn’t blow into the tracks. I would love to change it to an out swing, but the tracks are built into my brick columns, so I don’t know if it’s possible.
