A Dutch door has also been called a stable door, or half door. They are basically a door where the top half can open, while leaving the bottom half shut. They were known as a double hung door-hung door at one point and were popular in New England farmhouses to keep kids in and animals out. They are referred to as a Dutch Door because they were common in the Netherlands in the 17th Century. All of this can be found on Wikepedia's explantion of dutch doors.

Open up the top half of the door, and you can get a great gust of fresh air, but you need to deal with bugs. A swinging dutch door screen would defeat the whole purpose of your
beautiful dutch door that you invested in.
The modern solution for this classic door is a retractable screen door for dutch doors. You can retract it when you don’t need it! Out of sight, and tucked into a discrete housing, these screen doors are perfect for dutch doors. You can choose to mount the screen over the whole opening, which makes the most sense as you can choose to open both halves of you dutch doors and have them screened. Your other option is to only screen in the top half of the dutch doors and have it attach to the middle
ledge that most dutch doors have.
Whichever method you choose to make your dutch door screen, you get to have the look of a timeless classic with the modern convenience of a retractable screen door.
