External silver screens modification

I can’t see why external Silverscreens would be hampered by internal Remis blinds unless it's the 'envelope' corner over the door. However, why not give the supplier/manufacturer of the blinds a call of try a tent/awning repair business.

Thankyou Tinwheeler it is the envelope corner over the door, the piece i read suggested cutting the envelope.

I’d think that would be a simple enough mod to carry out. Slit the envelope and, using duck tape, fix in place a gusset made from similar material. 

Our silver screen, admittedly of the older variety, had 2 triangular pieces with opposing velcro to make the corner envelope. Attached to the top and side.

I'm sure it would be fairly simple to alter your existing envelope with suitable weight material, it will be inside so doesn't need to be waterproof, and velcro meaning it can be altered to fit over time and again with no chance of dragging in the blinds and damaging them.

If you're not handy with a needle and thread or sewing machine I'm sure there'll be someone local to do the job for s reasonable fee.

I seem to recall that the installation of 'Remis blinds' causes the door to be rather thicker than just a plain old door, so the comments about  slitting the triangular piece & adding an insert as mentioned by Tinners & Bakers2 is most definitely a feasible suggestion.

May all your nights be clear & fog/condensation free  

I've got a TaylorMade extra length screen from my previous Elddis 120 looking for a good home if you decide you would prefer not to hack your existing one about.

I have just checked our Taylormade screen cover and the internal corner cover does have a pull apart velcro but we never use that and we also have Remis blinds. I am not familiar with Silverscreens but do they have a pull down front section? If so you might find it helps to just open the top section by 12/15 inches which might aid hooking over the door.
