Privacy Screens

Patio Comfort Without Compromise

Patios are where you spend your summer — but sun glare, gusting wind, and mosquitoes can cut your enjoyment short. Retractable privacy screens let you lower a mesh panel for shade, privacy, and insect screening, or retract it fully for an unobstructed view.

Each screen is custom-measured to your patio opening and installed with side tracks that hold the fabric edges in a closed channel. A weighted bottom bar sits at the base. When retracted, the screen rolls into a compact housing that's virtually invisible.

Motorized systems operate via remote or wall switch — lower the screen from your patio chair without getting up. Available in a range of mesh densities for different levels of shade, privacy, and airflow.
