For those of you with screen doors, what have you used as a window shade over the window? I keep looking for a shade that will mount inside the window frame, but it doesn't look like there is enough depth. Not sure how to fit something in that window that will also sit behind the screen door. Anyone successfully do this?
Thanks,

Jeremy,
Double Trouble has a Birch screen door like your coach and it has a Guske blind between the doors. Unfortunately I don't have any
pictures of it.

I have also just added a screen door. I have the pleated day/night shades, and the door shade was mounted well inside the door. I plan to cut the shade about 1/2" shorter, and remount it inside the door window frame. It seems to fit there quite well. The only problem will be attaching the screws to hold it in place... I'll see what that takes when I tackle the job next month.

Jeremy,
Our coach had mini blinds on it when we got it. Still does. When I installed a Ragussa screen door, I removed the top mount and mounted it to the door glass with mounting tape. Even in the Arizona heat, it had only fallen off in close to five years. IIRC, the blind was cut to fit the window, so the only other thing I had to do was mount the strings on the bottom to the window frame. I can send pics tomorrow if it would help. I don't see why this wouldn't work just as well with Day/Night, pleated shades.
