I have a 2021 400 but had the screen door replaced a year and a half ago and it is a slightly different style than the one shown in some of the DIY repair threads from a few years ago (most noticeable at the bottom of the door).
I have had less issues with this one but on our current 6 week outing the string has frayed (the black outer shell has torn but not the inner white string) and the door will only open about half way. I know if I force it open it will snap. I've seen the diagrams of how these operate but can't figure out where it is jammed. I'm sure the stretching from being jammed is why the string is frayed (third string row down from the top).
Anyone have any ideas of how to analyze where the problem is so I can maybe make the door at least semi-functional (i.e. open) without breaking it?

My only alternative is to find another solution entirely for a screen "door" (thinking something like one of those magnetic push through screens doors or something), because I replacing this one every couple years gets really expensive.

Maybe while I have the screen door off (to theoretically do a string/filament replacement) I'll give that a try and maybe it will be the permanent fix if I like it and I never get to the repair.
@Marceline Is there a particular product (Amazon?) that worked well for being able to cut it down to size?
