Which retractable screen is right for your garage?

If you live in Florida, you no doubt enjoy the beautiful weather and refreshing warm breeze that often brings a hint of salt air from the coast. The reason you moved to The Sunshine State in the first place is to enjoy that perfect tropical environment and take in all this gorgeous oasis has to offer. So the last thing you want to be is cooped up inside on a stunning Spring day. A garage screen is a perfect way to enjoy the outdoors while also relaxing in privacy and free of pesky insects.

But what kind of garage screen is right for your home?

The answer all depends on how you choose to open your screen and what level of convenience you need. At Michele's Hide-Away Screens & Awnings we have three types of retractable garages screens: electronic roll up, LifeStyle, and four track slider screens.

Four track slider screen: If you are looking for a simple, affordable screen system, the four-track slider may be just what you are looking for. Our sliders have the rollers located at the top of the screens instead of the bottom, so the rollers never get caked with dirt and grit, making opening a breeze every time.

Lifestyle Screens: These screens are both stylish and convenient. If you plan on spending a lot of time in your garage and need quick access to an exit, the Lifestyle Screens have an optional door in the middle of the screen making it extremely easy to get in and out of your garage if you need to.

Electronic Roll Up Screen: If you are looking for a screen to make your life a little easier then you will love the electronic roll-up screen. Opening and closing this elegant screen is a breeze with just a touch of a button on your remote control.

No matter which screen you choose, you will have the luxury of creating the perfect color combination and extent of privacy you need and customize it just the way you like it. Come by our gorgeous new showroom conveniently located in Ocala to get your retractable garage screen today!

We just bought a home in Ocala in June 2025. We have a beautiful front porch, but it is in direct sunlight and very HOT! We searched around and talked to a couple of companies looking for awning options and frankly I picked Michele's Hide-Away Screens and Awning because the woman who answered the call was very pleasant, informative and helpful. She listened to our needs and made a great recommendation. We chose to move forward with them and ordered a Retractable Awning which is flush mounted to the house when closed. The order was placed; I was advised a time that it would be delivered to their location because they are custom made and received a call that it arrived - earlier than expected. They called me to schedule the installation. The install arrived on time and went right to work. The install took a couple of hours and was done without any issues and looked fantastic. EVEN BETTER - when the awning is opened and covers the porch it is so much cooler now. The Install Team cleaned up the area and we are overjoyed with the entire experience. We will be going back to them to get a Motorized Screen Door for our Garage as well. We Highly Recommend Michele's Hide-Away Screens and Awnings to any in need. I just can't say enough positive things about the entire group of people. Chuck S. Ocala FL

Had my screen for about 5-7years . Recently, I backed into it. Called Michele’s, the repair man( Dalton) was so kind, friendly and professional. Took his time, and explained everything to me. I love, love, love my garage screen. I would recommend Michele’ s to everyone who anticipates getting a garage screen. GREAT COMPANY.

Had them come out and service my 6 yr old 4 panel garage screens. They were better than new after that. New rollers, anchor bolts for the track and straightened all the guides. Excellent service.
