Our Patio Screen Solutions

Retractable Screens

Want the flexibility to enjoy open air one minute and cool, shaded comfort the next? Our retractable and adjustable patio screens give you complete control. With smooth roll-down, sliding, or motorized options, you can block sun, bugs, and glare whenever needed, then neatly tuck everything away. It’s a simple, modern solution that adapts to your day and your lifestyle.

Screened Enclosures

If you’re ready to upgrade your outdoor space with a permanent solution, learn more about our Screened Enclosures. Our systems use reinforced aluminum or steel framing to create durable, load-bearing structures that provide enhanced protection and comfort. Each enclosure is securely anchored, fitted with high-strength mesh or specialty screening, and built for weather resistance, low maintenance, and long-term performance.

Our Patio Screen Installation Process

Step 1: Measure the Patio

We begin by carefully measuring the patio’s dimensions, including height, width, and any structural features. This ensures the screen fits precisely and integrates seamlessly with the patio framework.

Step 2: Choose Screen Material and Frame

Depending on your priorities, whether it’s sun protection, ventilation, durability, or keeping insects out, we select the best screen fabric and a frame that complements your patio’s design.

Step 3: Prepare the Frame

Frame components are cut to size and put together with precision. We verify corners, mounting points, and alignment to make sure the frame is perfectly square and ready for installation.

Step 4: Install the Spline Channel

A spline channel is attached to the frame to hold the screen material securely. This channel ensures the screen stays tight and properly tensioned once installed.

Step 5: Position the Screen Material

The screen fabric is laid over the frame and aligned carefully to prevent sagging or wrinkles, creating a smooth and uniform surface.

Step 6: Insert the Spline

The spline is pressed into the channel to lock the screen material in place. This step evenly tensions the fabric and ensures a secure, lasting fit.

Step 7: Mount the Screen Panel

The completed panel is installed in the patio opening. Fasteners are added for stability, and the alignment is checked so the panel sits flush with the structure.

Step 8: Install Additional Panels (If Needed)

For larger patios or multi-section enclosures, extra panels are added and seamlessly joined to achieve a consistent, airtight finish.

Step 9: Conduct Final Inspection

We perform a thorough inspection of the entire installation, verifying tension, alignment, and sealing. This ensures the patio screen system looks flawless and functions perfectly.

Everything To Know About Retractable Patio Screens Before Buying

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a patio screen or enclosure, and how is it different from a patio cover?

A patio screen or enclosure adds mesh or framed screening to block insects, improve airflow, and create a semi-indoor outdoor space. A patio cover is a solid roof structure that provides shade and weather protection without enclosing the area.

What types of screened patio systems do you offer in the San Antonio area?

We offer retractable screens for flexible, on-demand protection and screened enclosures for full, permanent patio screening, both custom-built for durability, insect control, and year-round comfort in San Antonio.

Do I need a permit to add a screened patio or enclosure in San Antonio?

Within the City of San Antonio Development Services Department (DSD) jurisdiction, whether you need a permit for a screened patio or enclosure depends on the project’s design and construction.

If you are attaching the screen enclosure to your house, or it counts as a covered patio/porch cover, you generally need a building permit.
For a fully detached or small standalone screened structure, permit requirements may differ depending on size or height thresholds.
Either way, if you require a permit, we can help.

Are motorized or adjustable screen options available?

Yes. We offer motorized or adjustable screen options, including remote-operable retractable screens that let you raise or lower the screening at the touch of a button, for convenience and flexible outdoor comfort.
