Screen doors that is, which do you have? Mine on the front and back doors are wood, my kitchen pantry also has a wooden screen door on it, for better light, air circulation and keep the critters out,lol.

My front screen door (my only screen door) is metal but I prefer wood--I like the sound it makes when it slams shut.

If I had any screen doors, they would be wood, and if I ever get them, they WILL be wood!!

We have one wooden one the back screened in porch and the other one is solid glass on the front door. I would love to replace it with a nice wooden one that had heavy duty screen in it. I really don't like the lightweight nylon screen that seems to come with everything these days.
Enjoy the little things, for one day you may look back and realize they were the big things.

One of our front doors and the back door have metal screen doors. I would like wood as well. I think we will have to replace the back door this year, so hopefully we'll start with that one for wood.

I have wood screen doors which my husband made. We live in a log home so metal screen doors would look out of place. The screen doors are only half, though, and he puts plexi-glass in the screen part during the winter.

I have metal but I would of loved a wooden door the upside to metal is I can hide the screen inside the door in the winter and hide the glass in the door in the summer.
Hope all your days are Sunnydays.

Ours is wood! We can get away with that here in the high desert because the house faces north and we have a 10-foot deep porch! :)

At home we have metal, but at the camp we have wooden. And,, like Prairiehawk, I absolutely love to hear the wooden screen door shut. I love that sound.

In the front we have one of those Forever screen doors. I It has a screen then a window that slides up for rain or cold weather. It has been really good, I like it. It is a heavy door. It is white with brass brass lift up lever opener and we have a hunter green metal door with brass and frosted glasses in it. The back door is a cottage type that I love it looks like a ginger bread screen door. It is vinyl covered something lol!

We have a metal one for the back door and a wood one on the sunroom. I like the wood best though.

We don't have screen doors anymore. We had lots of work done on this house and had all new windows put in so the doors are the full glass doors. I wish we had screen doors but with 6 cats screens do not last around here.
