Are motorized screens worth it?

For most homeowners who actually want to use their patio year-round, yes. They solve the all-or-nothing problem of fixed screens and add real value and comfort to the home.

What happens in a power outage?

Most systems can be operated manually or have a backup option so you're never stuck. We'll go over the specifics for your setup.

Can they handle wind and rain?

Yes — the mesh and housing are weather-rated. For severe storms we recommend retracting them, like any awning or shade product.

A covered patio or lanai is one of the best parts of a Florida home — until the afternoon sun, blowing rain, or evening bugs chase you back inside. Fixed screens solve part of the problem but block your view permanently, and manual shades are the kind of thing that gets used once and then ignored. Motorized screens give you the best of both: full protection at the push of a button, and a wide-open view the rest of the time.

Great Screens installs motorized retractable patio screens for homes across Palm Beach and Martin County. They lower for shade, privacy, and bug protection, then roll back up out of sight when you want the space open — quiet, clean, and built for Florida weather.

The problem

Fixed screens are all-or-nothing. You either block the view permanently or fight bugs every evening. And manual shades are a hassle nobody actually uses.

What we do

We install motorized retractable screens for patios, lanais, and large openings. One button lowers them for shade and bug protection, another raises them to open the space back up. Quiet motors, weather-rated mesh, clean installation.

What you get

Push-button control; protection from sun, bugs, and wind; an open view when you want it; a premium upgrade that adds value to the home.

How It Works

At the touch of a button or flip of a switch, weather-rated mesh lowers from a discreet housing to enclose your patio, lanai, or large opening. Lower them in the afternoon to cut the sun and heat, in the evening to keep bugs out, or anytime you want privacy or wind protection. Raise them and they disappear, leaving your view completely open. We size and install each system to your space, with quiet motors and durable, weather-rated screening.
