Here is a company we found that has retractable screens that Do Not Slam. We have tried this screen & it really works,they have a hydraulic clutch system that automatically slow it down from slamming & is very quite.

Bravo Screens has very large selection of systems that will work for any applications and you can order online with free delivery in Canada & USA.

We are getting some more of their systems for testing, we just tested system 36 which is very nice looking and almost looks part of the door frame and they have good selection of colours. They have felt in top & bottom tracks to stop the bugs from crawling in and the felt also help the screen from coming out of the tracks in windy conditions.They are very easy to install and have PDF installation and how to measure on the website. All the parts are power coated and it does not need any lubrication at all. They come with lifetime warranty ( not on screen mesh) even if you install now that’s a First from any  manufacturer.

They use full magnetic strips from top to the bottom to hold the screen sliding pull bar in place as compared to other brands and the handles are adjustable on both sides just slide them where you want them.

You can order them in kits or ready to install. We tested ready to install all we needed was a cordless drill and screw driver bit to install this one, about 30miniuts to do this job that’s very good since we had never installed this make before.
