I usually see the 47-036 charcoal aluminum screen wire in Anderson doors and window screens. However the charcoal aluminum is more expensive and a little harder to work with than the fiberglass screen cloth. Another drawback using the Charcoal Aluminum screen wire is that after a few years it will start to corrode and stain the glass with the oxidation. I do believe the 36" width should be fine to use on your patio doors. We also carry the 45-736 invisible fiberglass screen cloth. However I'm not sure if it's worth the added cost compared to the standard fiberglass. Finally, we carry the standard 45-036R fiberglass in a 7' long roll, 36" wide. Try the 7' roll first to try your hand at replacing the screen cloth just to see how you feel about it. Also look at the related videos. |

I think the 45-736 is usable, but I don't think it's worth the cost in your case. I think you should try the 45-036R just to be 100% sure it works before you try experimenting with other types. Even though these meshes should work, they're still not exactly easy to work with. You may find that the invisible screen isn't worth the trouble. |
