Privacy Screens

Outdoor Living Without Compromise

Privacy screens transform patios, decks, gazebos, and pergolas into usable three-season spaces. Lower them to block sun, wind, and mosquitoes — raise them when you want a wide-open view.

Each screen is custom-measured to your opening and installed with sealed side tracks and a weighted bottom bar for a secure, rattle-free fit. Motorized systems operate via remote, wall switch, or smart home integration.

With hundreds of screen installations across the GTA, we've enclosed everything from backyard patios to commercial restaurant terraces. Our team handles the full process — measurement, fabrication, installation, and warranty support.

How It Works

How Retractable Screens Work

A retractable privacy screen consists of a housing, roller barrel, screen fabric, side guides, and bottom bar. Here's how each component works.

Housing & Roller

A compact aluminum housing mounts above the opening. Inside, the screen fabric wraps around a spring-tensioned or motorized roller barrel. When retracted, the screen is completely hidden inside the housing.

Screen Fabric

High-density mesh fabric blocks UV rays, reduces glare, and acts as a barrier against insects — while still allowing airflow and outward visibility. Fabrics are rated for UV resistance, wind load, and four-season outdoor use.

Side Guides & Tracks

Extruded aluminum tracks on each side keep the fabric taut and prevent flapping in wind. The sealed channel design also prevents insects from entering around the edges.

Weighted Bottom Bar

A heavy-gauge aluminum bottom bar keeps the screen anchored and creates a seal at the base. Some models include a locking mechanism for added security in high-wind environments.

Benefits

Why Privacy Screens?

Bug protection, shade, wind blocking, and privacy — without closing off your outdoor space.

Bug & Insect Barrier

Sealed side tracks and bottom bar keep mosquitoes, blackflies, and other insects out of your outdoor living space.

UV & Sun Protection

Screen fabrics block up to 95% of UV rays, protecting you and your furniture from sun damage while reducing glare.

Wind Protection

Screens provide a significant windbreak while maintaining natural airflow — no more gusts disrupting meals or conversations.

Motorized Control

Quiet motorized operation via remote, wall switch, or smart home. Compatible with Google Home and Amazon Alexa. Manual spring-loaded option available.

Maintains Visibility

Semi-transparent mesh lets you see out clearly while reducing visibility from the outside — privacy without feeling enclosed.

Temperature Reduction

Blocked solar radiation significantly reduces temperatures in covered outdoor spaces, making them comfortable even on the hottest days.

Custom-Fit Installation

Every screen is measured on-site and fabricated to your exact dimensions. Retrofit-friendly — installs on existing structures without modification.

5-Year Warranty

All installations backed by a comprehensive 5-year warranty covering fabric, motor, hardware, and workmanship.

Common Questions

Privacy Screen FAQ

Motorized privacy screens roll vertically inside side guides and retract into a compact housing mounted above the opening. When lowered, the screen fabric creates a barrier against sun, wind, and insects while still allowing airflow and outward visibility.
Privacy screens are commonly installed on patios, pergolas, covered decks, balconies, outdoor kitchens, and large window openings. They are designed to close off outdoor spaces while maintaining ventilation and visibility.
No. Most screen fabrics are designed to allow airflow while reducing sunlight and glare. This helps keep outdoor areas cooler without making the space feel closed in.

★★★★★

The screens gave us the shade and insect protection we wanted without closing off the space. Everything looks integrated and the motorized operation is smooth and quiet.

★★★★★

Our retractable awning made the deck much more usable during the summer. It gives us shade when we need it, and when it's closed the house still looks clean and open.
