Ordinary Screens Vs Retractable Screens

by | May 8, 2024

Having shade from the bright sun can help keep your outdoor entertaining spaces cool and functional at all times during the day. It can also keep bugs away from the action and divide up any outdoor space. When it comes to outdoor screens, there are really only two types you should consider: ordinary and retractable. But what’s the difference between ordinary and retractable? Does it really make a difference?

Ordinary Screens

Ordinary screens effectively divide outdoor space and break up outdoor space for long periods of time. Fixed privacy screens are permanently attached to backyard landscapes.

Pros of ordinary screens

Ordinary screens do their job and offer shade to extremely sunny backyards, and offer privacy. They come in a number of different styles and can effectively divide up large backyards.

Cons of ordinary screens

When it comes to making a space versatile, you are more than likely out of luck as you have to commit to a structure and set up where your screens will always be in action. Some ordinary screens don’t offer the best protection from summer bugs either. Finally, to move them takes a considerable amount of both time and effort.

Retractable Screens

Retractable screens are an awesome way to shade your space and add privacy temporarily. These screens are installed by professionals in strategic positions outside. Retractable screens are activated by remote for both expansion and retraction.

Pros of retractable screens

Retractable screens are adjustable and can transform your backyard in an instant. These screens are long-lasting. Their motorized features mean less fumbling with manually moving or retracting screens. Rather than leaving all your doors open and inviting in the insects from outside, set up your retractable screen and enjoy bug-free fresh air with the touch of a button. Your blinds are 100% customizable to meet and exceed your needs 24/7!
