I am looking for a way to support a 1/8" thick piece of plexiglass over the outside of a wooden screen door with clips that would rotate for easy on/off usage. Preferably, the clips/fasteners would be clear plastic.

Hello,

If there are no original clips that you could show us, we can't recommend a particular replacement but you are welcome to look through our selection of screen clips here that are commonly used on storm doors with removable screens and glass inserts. Thank you!

Thanks for your reply. To clarify, this piece of plexiglass will go ON TOP of the screening frame (made of wood) and will be essentially free floating (not in a groove or slot). The clips would hold and support the item in place by themselves. This plan would allow for the option not to screw the plexiglass directly onto the wood frame. I was just wondering if you have heard of a product like that.
