What Remote Controlled Screens Are Best For

Garages

Turn your garage into a more comfortable and usable space for workouts, hobbies, workshops, entertaining, or everyday relaxation. Remote controlled screens help reduce heat, glare, and visibility while allowing fresh air to circulate.

Patios & Lanais

Create a more comfortable outdoor living space with shade, privacy, and protection from Florida's intense sun. Lower the screen when you need it and retract it when you want open views and airflow.

Front Entrances & Porches

Enjoy cooking and entertaining outdoors without dealing with excessive glare, heat, or harsh afternoon sun. Remote controlled screens help create a more functional outdoor kitchen experience year-round.

Large Opening Enclosures

Remote controlled screens are ideal for oversized openings where traditional shade solutions may not provide enough coverage. Custom sizing allows for a clean appearance while maintaining easy operation.

Why Homeowners Choose Lafferty Aluminum & Screening

Local, Licensed & Insured

As a Brevard County company, we understand the challenges Florida homeowners face, including intense sun exposure, humidity, coastal conditions, and year-round outdoor living. Our recommendations are based on real-world experience installing screen systems throughout the Space Coast.

Specialized Motorized Screen Expertise

Our team specializes in remote controlled and motorized screen systems. We help homeowners choose the right mesh, motor, and configuration based on how they actually use their outdoor spaces.

Custom-Fit Solutions

Every opening is different. That's why every screen system is professionally measured and customized to fit your patio, lanai, garage, outdoor kitchen, or enclosure.

Professional Installation

A motorized screen system is only as good as its installation. Our team focuses on proper measurements, secure mounting, and clean installation practices to ensure reliable performance for years to come.

What Our Installers Usually Recommend

For most Florida patios, we typically recommend solar screen fabrics that reduce afternoon heat and glare while maintaining visibility. For larger openings, stronger motors and wind sensors often provide the best long-term performance.

If privacy is a priority, we usually recommend Nano Mesh or Dim Out fabrics depending on the amount of visibility and light control desired. Every project is different, which is why we focus on matching the screen system to your lifestyle rather than recommending the same setup for every home.
