subject: 7 Retractable Screen Solutions For Homeowners [print this page] The most common uses for our invisible screens and the advantages are...
Front Doors - Home and business owners wish to have the option of insect-less airflow through their front door, but do not want a permanent screen covering the view of their business name or decorative door. After all this is the most important door of most establishments.
Sliding Glass Doors - Glass doors are meant to be seen through. A permanent screen substantially diminishes your view. Innovative invisible screen doors allow you to see clearly and unobstructed through your glass doors!
Double French Doors - Retractable screens are the only type of screen possible for double doors. They allow full coverage of the space when both doors are open, and can also provide screening for just one side at a time, when desired. When not in use, they are not obstructing the view out through French door windows, or covering up decorative doors.
House-to-Garage doors - Homeowners often want to be able to keep their door to the garage open without allowing flies and other insects in. Professional disappearing screen door systems allow this privilege, and can also be retracted away, eliminating the hassle of a permanent screen during everyday use.
Condo doors - Many Home Owner Associations (HOA)forbid installation of permanent screens on condominium or townhouse doors. HOA's approve only the best disappearing screens because they some could alter the look and conformity of the doors!
Windows - Some screens provide a perfectly clear view through windows when not in use. Some homeowners prefer screens that allow passage of items through a window, for example food passed through a kitchen window to an outdoor barbeque.
Push or Wind-out Windows - There is finally an option for screens on push-out or wind-out windows! These windows typically go without screens because they must be manually operated. The best retracting window screens can allow manual operation while keeping the insects out!
You can learn how to install many of these screen door systems yourself at your local Home Depot. But it usually takes experience to install screen solutions that last years of weathering and opening and closing wear and tear. Besides that, most experienced screen door professionals know how to install screens and frames that are literally invisible or adds value to your home. If hiring a professional to install your screen doors and /or windows, do your research. If installing yourself, do you research on the best screening products and good luck!
