The product does work on both front and back doors. The magnets work like they should. However, when installing it, the screens either aren't cut properly or the intended installation isn't clear on expectations. I expected the align the magnets then secure the screen. Unfortunately, when you secure the screen from top to bottom the top magnets pull apart and can not connect again. The screen has to be less than taut and not squared in order to make it work.

Easy to install. Magnets on top were not coming together when I installed it. I had to pull and press the top center further up like ^. It worked like a charm. While pasting the strips on either sides, I used count of magnets to space them. While installing, top should not be sagging. It has to be perfect horizontal or a little inclined in the center (this brings the magnets back together). Use the vertical stripes to align the sides in straight line. It is ok to be little loose. There was thunder storm the first night. It held up pretty good with open doors.

Not hard to install, but it doesn't hold in place. The magnets work just fine, they are strong holding the panels together. The adhesive of the velcro attachments that are supposed to hold up the netting in door frame is not sufficient. The netting gets unstuck from the velcro strips and the netting falls under its own weight. Next, we will try stapling the darn thing to the frame. But as is, the item has a major flaw.

This is so much better than I thought it would be. If you install it correctly it works great. You have to read the directions. If it is too long, grab a tape measurer. Thats it. Just adjust the length. Its not that hard. My wife loves it. Cuts way down on flies in the house.

This product fell apart the 1st day I had it installed and it was not at all abused. The fabric tore at the top, middle and on the 3rd day a magnet fell off! This product is of very very poor quality! I wish someone would have told me NOT to purchase this product.

I bought this screen for the basement door. The pugs go in and out of the yard threw this door and without a screen door the bugs got inside. It is easy to install and ready to use right away. I rolled up the bottom panel on one side and stapled it up so they can run in and out with out opening it. Works perfect for us.

The Magic Mesh works great and does exactly what it claims to do. However, we have an aluminum doorframe and quickly learned that the small velcro stickers that attach the screen to the frame were too weak to be effective--they peeled off easily and the mesh fell under its own weight. We corrected this by buying larger strips of heavy-duty velcro at a hardware story and using them to replace the strips that came with the kit, after which it worked so well that it quickly became a summer necessity! The repair job we did was easy and inexpensive, and we like our Magic Mesh, but it seemed a shame we had to spend extra money--even if it was only five more bucks--to get the product to function as it should.

I live in an RV and my dog, several cats, and I are in and out the door a lot. This is the second screen I have purchased--kittens made spaghetti of the first one. I like that I can see through it, it keeps the ac and the heat in, and the flies out. I don't have much clearance above my door, so I bought a wooden yardstick, attached the mesh to it, and hung it like a frame above the door, screwing the yardstick in at the ends. I secured the sides as directed. The reason I didn't give it five stars is I wish it were a little sturdier at the top of the screen. It's already looking a little worn. But for $15, I can replace it again if necessary.

We had only one fur baby when we originally purchased this product and she enjoyed the freedom it provided BUT since we moved and acquired another little dog they are nearly worn the magnets out coming and going at will - saved us from getting up and down to let them in and out. Best buy we have made in a while.

I like how the Mesh covers and the entire door & the magnets work well. It is perfect for our dog who likes to go in and out as the weather changes quickly were we live. The only problem I have, is the Hook and Loop does not stick well. I've used other mesh brand screens that had better quality sticky stuff and didn't have that problem.
