What Are Hurricane Screens?
Hurricane screens are heavy-duty retractable screen systems engineered to withstand high winds and flying debris during severe storms. They are mounted on the exterior of your home and roll up or down using a powerful, quiet motor — giving you instant protection when you need it and unobstructed views when you don't.
Because they are installed on the exterior, they also block solar heat before it reaches your windows and doors — helping reduce cooling costs while protecting your furnishings, flooring, and décor from UV damage.
Available in a range of fabric densities and openness factors, hurricane screens can be fine-tuned for your specific needs — from lightly filtering the sun to providing a strong barrier against wind, rain, and debris.

How Hurricane Screens Work
Our hurricane screens are mounted on the exterior of your home and roll up or down using a powerful, quiet tubular motor housed in a protective cassette or fascia. The screen fabric and hardware are engineered to withstand high winds and flying debris.
Fully Deployed: When fully extended, the screen provides storm protection against wind, rain, and debris, while also blocking sun, glare, heat, and UV rays.
Partially Deployed: When partially lowered, the screen filters sunlight while preserving your view, giving you the perfect balance of shade, visibility, and comfort.
Fully Retracted: When not in use, the screen rolls neatly into its housing, preserving your view and maintaining a clean, uncluttered exterior.
