5 Ways a motorized roll-up screen makes life so much easier.

5 Ways a motorized roll-up screen makes life so much easier.

Motorized roll up screens makes life easier in so many ways. Homes that are built in areas where windows and doors remain open for large parts of the year need screens. Typical screens are considered part of the primary structure of a home. Motorized roll up screens works in the same way as typical screens in that they screen out bugs, insects, dirt, and debris. Without screens covering doors and windows, insects, flies and other pests have free access to enter the home. Mosquitoes and flies breed quickly and are a nuisance. Keeping out flies and mosquitoes was the first reason screens were added to the doors and windows of homes.

Motorized roll up screens make your life easier and increase the value of your home in the following five ways:

  1. Ease of operation - Typical screens are permanent fixtures. To remove a typical screen on days when screens are not needed, they have to be unscrewed, physically removed and stored. You can quickly roll up a motorized retractable screen to allow for the full flow of air exchange. This solution is excellent if you are entertaining and want to "bring the outside in" - especially for patio doors.
  2. Fresh air flow and enjoyment of the elements - There is value in a screen that rises just like the window does. This eliminates worries about losing the screen or screws. Also, it only takes 2 seconds to raise motorized roll-up screens as opposed to the several minutes or longer to physically remove and store typical screens.
  3. Create more livable space - When a motorized roll up screen is added to a garage door, the possibilities for the use of the garage space become limitless. Considering the value of residential space (currently over $100 / square foot), it makes economic sense to create more "livable" areas out of garages, porches, and lanais.
  4. Protection from harmful effects of the sun - Motorized roll up screens protects your paint, carpet, and furniture from the adverse effects of the sun with mesh that blocks up to 90% of the UV rays in our motorized roll-up screen. These solar-rated meshes are ideal for shading applications as well. Not only does this add value to your home, but it protects your health as well.
  5. Motorized roll up screens rarely has to be replaced - Typical screens on windows and doors have to be replaced several times throughout the life of your home. Wind, weather, mold and mildew quickly cause regular window and door screens to deteriorate. Because it can "disappear" out of the way, motorized roll-up screens is subject to far less wear & tear. Their ability to self-store into its own protective housing makes it less vulnerable to harmful elements, severe weather, and dirt.

Last year, I had Michele's come to install my awesome remote controlled screen door for the garage. I liked it so much, I decided to have them back to install a retractable screen door for the garage/mud room entry. Great products that really work as designed. Sales folks and installers were wonderful!
