The system uses self-tensioning magnets and a self-correcting track that helps the screen move smoothly and stay aligned during operation. As the screen raises or lowers, it helps correct itself and rewrap properly for dependable everyday use.

Patio Lane Outdoor Living offers custom motorized retractable screens designed for shade, privacy, insect protection, and greater comfort in outdoor living spaces. Options include traditional retained-track systems and magnetic track systems, along with different screen fabrics, controls, and installation configurations. The best system depends on the size of your opening, wind exposure, how you use the space, and whether your priority is sun control, privacy, airflow, or insect protection. Our team helps you compare those options before recommending a solution for your home. You can see and operate different motorized screen features in our Clearwater showroom or explore options during a mobile showroom visit.
Motorized patio screens raise and lower at the push of a button, allowing you to change how enclosed or open your outdoor space feels throughout the day. Lower the screens when you want shade, privacy, or insect protection, then retract them when you want an unobstructed view and a completely open space. Depending on the system selected, controls may include handheld remotes, wall switches, app-based controls, or compatible home-automation options.
In many cases, yes. Motorized retractable screens can be added to existing patios, lanais, porches, pergolas, outdoor kitchens, garages, and other covered outdoor spaces. Before recommending a system, our team evaluates the opening, mounting surfaces, available structure, electrical requirements, and surrounding conditions. Some installations use surface-mounted tracks and housings, while other projects may allow for a more integrated appearance. A mobile showroom visit can be especially helpful because our team can discuss screen options while seeing the space where the system would be installed.
Yes. When paired with insect mesh, motorized patio screens create a barrier that helps keep mosquitoes and other flying insects outside while still allowing airflow and visibility. This makes them especially useful for Florida patios, lanais, outdoor kitchens, and covered entertaining areas where homeowners want insect protection without permanently enclosing the space. Different mesh options provide different levels of airflow and visibility.
Yes. Depending on the screen material selected, motorized outdoor screens can reduce direct sunlight and glare, provide additional daytime privacy, and help make a covered outdoor space more comfortable. Solar screen fabrics are designed to reduce sun exposure while maintaining outward visibility. Privacy-oriented fabrics use a tighter weave for greater visual separation, while more open mesh allows increased airflow and clearer views.
Motorized screen systems vary in how they manage wind and weather. Traditional retained-track systems secure the screen within side tracks, while advanced magnetic track systems use self-tensioning and self-correcting technology designed to help the screen remain properly positioned as conditions change. The right system depends on factors such as the size of the opening, exposure, installation location, and intended use. It is important to distinguish wind-resistant motorized screens from products specifically engineered or approved for storm protection. Not every motorized screen is a hurricane screen.
Our motorized screens include a limited warranty with 10 years on hardware, 5 years on motors and controls, and 2 years on accessories. Fabric and mesh coverage depends on your selection. For more information, check out our warranty coverage.
The best screen fabric depends on what you want the screen to accomplish. Insect mesh prioritizes bug protection and airflow. Solar mesh is designed to reduce sunlight, heat, and glare. Privacy-oriented mesh provides greater visual separation, while different openness levels allow homeowners to balance shade, ventilation, and visibility. Fabric color can also influence how much you see through the screen and how the screen appears from inside and outside the home. Rather than choosing from a small online image, homeowners can compare screen materials and openness levels in person in our immersive Clearwater showroom or during a mobile showroom visit.
Motorized patio screens are custom quoted because pricing varies based on the size of the opening, screen material, track system, motor, controls, mounting conditions, and installation requirements. Larger openings, upgraded controls, specialty mesh, and more complex installations can affect the overall project cost. One of our Outdoor Living experts can review your space, discuss available options, and prepare an estimate based on the specific requirements of your home rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all price.

Great experience purchasing a motorized screen for my lanai. I went to the showroom and talked to Sklyer so I could see all the options available. Installation team was very friendly and efficient. I can really tell a difference with the screen, and will be able to get a lot more use out of the lanai with this blocking some of the sun out.
We could not be any happier with our new power hurricane screens. We installed 5 large screens plus 1 sliding door. The installers were very professional and made sure we were totally satisfied. Large investment but we got the best product and installation. Thank you.
Tim did an outstanding job on our motorized screens. From the first visit to the final inspection we were happy with everything and everyone involved. I highly recommend this company.
