I gather that your aluminum door/curtain struts fit into a "C" style channel at each vertical door jamb. If that is the case that it's very similar to what we build for our temporary enclosures. I put 2 pulleys at the top jamb and run the rope to the respective side. Mind you this is for temporary shelter during construction. If I had to do something more permanent I would mount 2 pulleys at the top about 2 feet in from each edge of the door. Mount a double or single pulley at the edge to direct the ropes through and down to your winch. The problem will be that you are bringing, let's say 14 feet (door height), of double rope though that pulley and you do won't want to mount your winch 14 feet below that pulley. 3 to 4 feet will be a good winch height which leaves you with 10 to 11 feet. You could run the double ropes both to the winch after it's run through the double pulley. I don't know if there is a good way to combine the ropes to a single winch line without getting my hands dirty first.
From experience I will say that watch the size of the pulley in relation to the rope. I've done this with a light 1/4" rope and it tends to bind in the pulley or jump out if any slack is encountered.

The need for people to escape for periods of relaxation in an increasingly complex and pressured environment takes us into the realm of hobbies.
