Keep the breeze. Lose the bugs.
Custom motorized retractable screens help Orlando homeowners enjoy patios, lanais, garages, and outdoor living areas without permanently screening them in.
Serving Orlando for more than 20 years | Local showroom | Professional installation
Lower your screens with the push of a button and keep mosquitoes and other insects outside while fresh air continues to move through the space. Raise them again when you want a completely open patio, unobstructed view, or easy access to the yard and pool.
For Orlando homeowners who want insect protection without committing to a permanent screen enclosure, retractable screens provide a practical middle ground.
Motorized Retractable Screens for Orlando Homes
Florida’s outdoor lifestyle comes with one predictable problem: mosquitoes and other insects can make an otherwise comfortable patio difficult to use.
Motorized retractable screens turn covered patios, lanais, garages, and outdoor kitchens into more usable spaces without permanently closing them in. When the screens are down, they provide insect protection while maintaining visibility and airflow. When they are raised, the opening is clear again.
Each system is custom-built for the size and conditions of the opening. The right installation depends on the structure, available mounting space, width, height, wind exposure, electrical access, and how the homeowner wants the screens to operate.
New Horizons has installed retractable screen systems across Orlando and Central Florida for more than 20 years. This is specialized work. Proper measurements, track alignment, motor setup, mesh tension, and installation details all affect how reliably the screen operates over time.
For Homeowners
Lanais and Covered Patios
A covered patio may already have protection overhead, but the open sides still allow mosquitoes, flies, and other insects into the space. Retractable screens give you insect control without adding permanent walls or a full screen enclosure.
Pool Decks and Outdoor Living Areas
Motorized screens can help create a more comfortable seating or dining area near the pool while preserving an open connection to the yard.
Garage Openings
A retractable screen can convert a garage into a more comfortable workshop, hobby area, exercise space, or place to spend time with the door open. Lower the screen for ventilation and insect control, then retract it when the garage needs to return to normal use.
Outdoor Kitchens and Summer Kitchens
Retractable screens help keep mosquitoes away from cooking, dining, and seating areas while allowing heat and cooking odors to move out of the space. When your outdoor kitchen is not being used, the screens retract and leave the opening clear.
Why Choose Retractable Screens Over Traditional Enclosures?
A fixed screen enclosure solves the insect problem, but it permanently changes the appearance and feel of the space. Retractable screens give Orlando homeowners more control.
- Keep the opening clear when you want it — Retract the screens completely instead of looking through permanent framing and mesh every day.
- Maintain airflow — Insect-screen mesh allows the breeze to move through the patio while helping keep mosquitoes outside.
- Preserve the view — The motorized screen is there when you need it and rolls up out of the way when you do not.
- Avoid the enclosed feeling of a pool cage — Protect the covered living area without necessarily enclosing the entire pool deck.
- Use each opening independently — Lower one screen, several screens, or all of them depending on the conditions.
- Fit large custom openings — Our screen systems can be designed for wide patios, lanais, garages, and outdoor living areas.
- Coordinate with the home — Housing and track finishes can be selected to work with the structure and exterior.
- Add sun or privacy control where needed — Different mesh materials can address more than insects. Choose from lots of mesh options to also add shade and privacy if needed for your home.
Simple, Reliable Operation
Built for Frequent Use
A retractable screen should be easy enough to use every day and properly installed so it continues to operate as intended.
One-touch control
Lower or raise the screens with a remote, wall switch, smart phone, or compatible home-automation system. Multiple screens can be operated individually or together, depending on the setup.
Mesh Options for Different Goals
Tuff Screen insect mesh is designed to preserve airflow and visibility while keeping out common pests.
Tighter solar and privacy materials are also available, but the tradeoff matters: the more sun and visibility a screen mesh blocks, the less airflow and outward view it provides.
Custom Fit for Each Opening
Each screen is measured and built for the opening rather than cut down from a standard size. This is especially important for wide lanais, tall openings, garages, and irregular structures.
Clean Retracted Appearance
When raised, the screen rolls into a compact housing above the opening. The tracks remain at the sides, but the main opening is left clear.
Durable Outdoor Components
Our motorized retractable screen systems are made with outdoor-rated housing, tracks, motors, controls, and screen materials selected for Central Florida conditions.
Professional Installation
Track alignment, mounting strength, tension, electrical planning, and final adjustment all affect performance. Installation is completed by a fully trained team familiar with these systems and the details that can cause problems when they are overlooked.
Ready to Enjoy Your Outdoor Space Without the Bugs?
A patio can look beautiful and still sit unused when mosquitoes take over in the evening. Motorized retractable screens give you protection when you need it while keeping the openness, airflow, and view that made you want the space in the first place.
