Energy Saving, Locally Made Motorized Screens
Why Choose a Retractable Screen?
Installing retractable window screens can dramatically reduce your energy usage by blocking the sun from heating your windows. This reduces the need to run air-conditioning while still maintaining your view. Sometimes, an exterior retractable screen can replace interior window treatments completely. This green, energy-saving product can even pay for itself in energy usage savings over several years.
These units can either be manually operated or motorized, but motorization allows for easy operation with the touch of a button as well as options to add wind sensors for automatic operation. We have options for screens with or without guide rails for various applications and budgets.
Our Motorized Screens are Made Locally
Our Talius and MagnaTrack retractable screens are made in BC and offer unique designs and engineering with the Edge Retention System. This keeps the screen material firmly on the side rails even in gusty winds. The unique guide rail system prevents the screen edges from blowing out in stormy weather, and the screen fabric retracts neatly into a cassette box. We also carry cable-guided screens when mounting guide rails may be not possible.
Darker-coloured screens allow the best visibility, while lighter-coloured screen fabrics reflect more light and tend to make the mesh look nearly opaque. Block the sun, not your view!
Frequently Asked Questions
How much are retractable screens?
The cost of retractable screens can vary greatly depending on the size, type, and features. A basic retractable screen for a small window can cost anywhere from a few hundred dollars and up. However, for larger openings or more advanced features such as motorized operation, the cost can be quite a bit more. Get in touch and we’ll be happy to provide a quote tailored specifically to your needs.
How do retractable screens work?
Retractable screens work by using a spring-loaded roller system that allows the screen to be extended or retracted at will. When the screen is not in use, it can be retracted into the casing and stored neatly out of sight.
