When it's too warm most RVers shut the door and turn on the air conditioner. Not Kelly, he just closes his screen door which has been fitted with Plexiglas inserts. He used some "h" channel he picked up from a hardware store to hold the Plexiglas in place. 
He can remove the plastic when he wants to use the screen by simply lifting it out of the channels.
The bottom of the door as well as the slider insert also have plexiglass but are not removable.Other RVers have simply screwed the Plexiglas over the screen door. Here an RVer uses a couple screws at the top of the door and a handle to secure the bottom piece.
A simple yet effective way to enjoy more "view" without sacrificing the luxury of heat or air conditioning. It's also more effective at keeping "no-see-'em" bugs out of the RV.Providing you with a clear view of RV innovations and modifications - Jim Twamley, Professor of RVing

I used a tinted Lexan glass. It is much lighter than plexi-glass. We chose to simply remove the entire screen and screw it onto the exterior of the screen door frame in one piece. We cut out a square to get to the handle. Works like a charm. You need to use the lightest (weight) material that you can find as the screen door frame is only made to support screen.
Just Velcro it to the screen door frame,easy install, easy on and off and very cheap
