Will it fit my 36 x 80 in door opening?

It is made for openings up to 36 in wide and 80 in high. Measure the opening, not the old door, and check that the frame has room to mount.

Does it work on left- and right-hand doors?

Yes. The universal reversible design lets you mount the housing on either side, so it suits either swing.

The retractable screen door unit and a handle. Mounting hardware and tools are not listed, so check before installing.

Less than the full 36 in, because the housing and track take up space at the sides. Expect a narrower pass-through than a fixed screen door.

Keep the track clean and the frame square. Most tracking and retraction complaints trace back to alignment or debris in the track.

It hides away and keeps the view clear, but it has more moving parts and a smaller opening. A hinged door is simpler and cheaper to maintain.
