Retractable screens for Northern Kentucky and Cincinnati

Screen the opening when you need it

Lower the screen across the opening, then raise it into the housing above. Side tracks guide its movement. The system needs a suitable mounting surface and a clear path when it operates.

A screen for the way you use the patio

Insect mesh and solar fabric do different jobs. Decide whether insects or afternoon sun are the main problem, then compare exterior shade fabrics for the balance of light, view and coverage.

Look at the porch as a whole

Screening one opening does not close every route into an outdoor space. Other open sides, doorways and gaps can affect insect coverage. For a porch used for meals, consider how you will enter and leave while the screen is lowered.

For a porch used for meals, consider how you will enter and leave with the screen lowered. Chairs, doors and nearby fixtures belong in the fit discussion. We assess those details before confirming an Apollo configuration.

Housing, tracks and everyday access

The housing sits above the opening, and side tracks guide the screen. Compare their position and available finish with the posts and beams around the opening. These parts remain visible when the fabric is retracted.

An open area without suitable attachment surfaces presents a different project from a covered porch. Photos of the opening, the space above it and its sides can help start the discussion before measuring.

Power and control access

Choose a convenient place to operate the screen and discuss the power arrangement for the selected system. A remote can handle routine adjustments; app or connected controls require compatible equipment. An interior shade and outdoor screen may not share controls.

We assess the mounting and power needs during the consultation. Your quote identifies the screen, controls and installation work for the opening.

Using and caring for the screen

Retractable screens have outdoor operating limits. Follow the system’s wind and weather instructions, including when to retract it. Screening adds flexibility to the space without turning it into a permanent weather enclosure.
