Creating a Protected Area

From elegant outdoor dining and entertaining areas to a relaxing space for watching the big game, these screens enhance the livability of your landscapes and extend the outdoor season. 

Retractable shades lower instantly with the touch of a button. Are the storm clouds building up? Lower the shades and continue enjoying dinner with friends while watching the beauty of a Midwest storm.

Year-Round Enjoyment

Progressive Screens' world-class retractable screening solutions are renowned for their patented use of the strongest magnets available. MagnaTrack, a self-tensioning and self-correcting system, ensures safety, security, and protection when you need it most.

In addition to shielding against debris and insects, it provides much-needed shade and comfort. The mesh solar screen blocks up to 97% of the sun’s UV rays, reducing solar heat gain while protecting people and furnishings from the sun's harmful effects. Using outdoor shades can reduce the temperature by as much as 20°F.

The MagnaTrack system also allows the screen to flex under pressure, enabling it to withstand extreme storms, keeping you dry and safe. Their Defender Hurricane Screens can handle winds up to 156 mph. 

Automated for Ultimate Protection

In addition to one-touch control, these systems also integrate with today’s home automation platforms and automatically adjust when needed. For instance, if an unexpected storm forms while you’re away, the shades automatically lower to protect the space from flying debris and rain.

As part of smart home living, automation scenes enable you to create the ideal outdoor ambiance for all the many activities that are a part of the great outdoors. Whether dining, entertaining, relaxing, or watching a movie, pressing one button will set the lights, AV, fans, fire features, and retractable shades to the ideal settings. 

Elevating Outdoor Aesthetics

These shades come in various colors, opacities, and textures, ensuring the ideal solution for your outdoor area. They also offer custom designs for homeowners who need a completely personalized color.

Are you ready to extend your outdoor hours and seasons, making the most of your outdoor spaces? These shades can cover existing patios, pergolas, and garages, helping create a year-round, comfortable environment without the need for costly renovations.
