Hell yeah. DIY is overlooked and very important

The screen material is just trapped in place by a rubber liner. Pull that out, position the new screen material, use a special roller tool to stuff the liner back into the track, kinda sorta try to keep the screen material straight (but imperfections aren't really noticeable).

yeah once you start you see its not that hard. One of the easier home repairs

I had no clue. I was searching for that frame size thinking I had to order a whole new assembly at first!

Is the net made of plastic or metal?

I would expect it to be more durable from metal

Fiberglass. Feels like a soft plastic. Consistency is much more flexible than the original metal screen.

so you have already thought about it 🤓 By the way looks great
