Many homeowners initially reach out to us because they're tired of the Florida sun making their patio, lanai, or pool area too hot to enjoy. While motorized awnings and screens both help solve that problem, the biggest benefit is usually how much more comfortable and usable the space becomes.
When we asked our installers for their advice, the most common recommendation was to choose the solution based on how you plan to use the space. If your main concern is shade and cooling down an open patio, a motorized awning is often the best fit. If you're looking for protection from bugs, added privacy, and sun control, a motorized screen may be the better option. In many cases, homeowners choose both for the ultimate outdoor living experience.
Our goal is simple: help you get the most enjoyment out of your investment. Whether you're relaxing with family, entertaining guests, or simply enjoying a quiet evening outside, we want your outdoor space to be somewhere you actually use. When customers tell us they're spending more time outdoors than ever before, that's when we know we've done our job right.
