Screen Guys

I saw the product at a friend's house. I liked what I saw and they were very happy with what they had so I found The Screen Guys via Google and called them. They quoted me their price including tax based on my description of my patio doors and told me that their first available install date would be in about five weeks. I liked that they had enough business to keep them very busy so I scheduled an installation date and time. Two days before the scheduled date they inquired if I would mind changing the time by two hours and I gladly agreed because it was actually a bit more convenient for me. The technician arrived on time, recommended a color that was a near perfect match for our doors, custom manufactured the product onsite to the exact dimensions required for our door, and completed the installation in a couple of hours. It might have taken him less time if our patio door was more standard and/or he could have worked on a less crowded deck but the final price was exactly what had been quoted during my first phone call. The technician was professional and friendly, the workmanship was excellent, and the screen functions exactly as expected. Having both sides of the door clear (no visible screen) improves the appearance of the door and the screen is much easier the open and close than the screen door was in the best of circumstances. The screen can't be left half open but I don't recall ever doing that with the old screen except when it was sticking and I was lazy. And I haven't been able to come up with reason I would want a screen partially open. Why would I want to only keep out some of the bugs? I did not rate the price because I have not researched prices on comparable products and also realize the adage that women will buy anything that is cheap enough and men will pay any amount for something he wants enough may apply here. With a product like this, the question whether the functionality is worth the cost is very personal. The limited effort I expended looking for comparable products made me doubt very much that you will find a much better price but it could easily still be more than you would pay.
