Retractable Screen Doors
The screen that disappears. Pull it across for fresh air, retract it into a slim 2‑inch housing when you want a clean, open entryway. Your home looks exactly the way you designed it.

The Screen That Disappears
How It Works
Deployed
Pull the screen across. The mesh lets in 20% more natural light than standard screens. Feel the breeze, see your yard. Your room stays bright and airy even with the screen fully extended.
Retracted
Let go. The screen glides back into a 2‑inch aluminum housing. No screen visible. Just your door and your view. Your entryway stays wide open and uncluttered.
Single & French Door Systems
Every installation is custom-measured for your door opening.
Single Door

Why Roll-A-Way
The brand trusted by builders and homeowners across Southern California for over 20 years.
Slim, Elegant Housing
The 1-7/8" rounded housing practically disappears against your door frame. Your elegant entry stays the focal point, not a bulky screen.
Maintenance Free
High quality aluminum components with a limited lifetime warranty. Spring tension allows smooth, consistent retraction every time.
No-Damage Install
Mounts with a few small screws. No cutting, no routing, no permanent modifications. If you move, the unit comes off with minimal trace.
Replaceable Mesh
If the mesh ever wears out, swap the cassette and keep the housing. A 20-minute service call instead of a full replacement.
Two-Visit Installation
Retractable screens are custom-built for your door, so we visit twice: once to measure, once to install.
Measurement Visit
We check fitment (need 2″ flat on hinge side), confirm the opening dimensions, and choose your color from seven options.
Custom Order
Your screen is manufactured to your exact measurements. Roll-A-Way builds each unit to order in Southern California.
Install Visit
We mount the housing, set the tracks, and test the full operation. 45 minutes for single doors, 90 for French.
Common Questions
Almost always. We need about 2 inches of flat surface on the hinge side of your door frame to mount the housing. During our measurement visit we’ll confirm fitment before you commit to anything.
Two visits. First we measure and choose your color (15 minutes). Then your custom unit is manufactured (3-4 weeks). On the install visit, a single door takes about 45 minutes and French doors take about 90 minutes.
The mesh cassette is replaceable without removing the housing. We carry replacement mesh and can swap it in about 20 minutes. Much cheaper than replacing the whole unit.
Retractable screens use a lighter mesh than fixed screens, so they’re not ideal for large dogs that push against doors. For high-pet-traffic entries, a swinging screen door with pet-resistant mesh is a better fit.
