Retractable RV door screen makes for a better view

Mrs. Professor used to complain about not being able to see out of the entry door window while traveling because the screen blocked her view. I fixed the problem and will report the results in a future article, but here is a great solution if you can talk Atwood into selling you one.

Paul and Cary Carleton are RVers from Snohomish, Washington. They have a lovely motorhome but Mary had the same problem as Mrs. Professor so Paul got to work on an idea to fix the problem. He noticed a retractable screen on a newer model coach and decided to find one to install in his own motorhome. It took him a long time and sloothing to find the manufacturer. Atwood is the manufacturer of these cool retractable screens and they should consider making them available to Joe RVer and not just to manufacturers.

The screen runs on a track on each side of the window and is held in place in the down position with a magnet. The housing has a retractable spring allowing for easy operation. Paul had to make it fit with some minor alterations, but the end result is sweet! Now Mary can see the sights more clearly as they drive down the RV road.
