Recently, our patio screen door has begun to show damage and the screen itself has started to peel off of the damaged frame. We are now looking to replace it.
We measured the door as 36 1/2 inches wide and 79 5/8 inches high. Our problem is that we do not remember what type of screen door this is.
Does anyone know the screen door type and where to find it?

As noted in a comment, unless the frame itself is damaged, you just replace the screen in the existing frame. I'm guessing that the "damage" in the outside picture is just an odd aberation caused by your camera, or you'd be asking how to repair siding, too! :)
You pull the spline out of the groove and remove the old screen. You might be able to reuse the spline, but if you can't they're not expensive.
You lay out the new screen over the door, then, using a spline tool, you push the spline into the groove to hold the screen in place.
The hardest part is keeping the screen nice and smooth so it looks good when you're done. This shouldn't be too difficult, though, if you take your time and employ a helper or two to hold it tight.
