Are retractable screens just as good as regular screen doors?

Are retractable screens just as good as regular screen doors?

Retractable screens are not just as good as regular screen doors... they’re much, much better. Especially one from Michele’s Hide-Away Screens & Awnings, Central Florida’s leader in innovative screen solutions!

With so many advantages over a traditional swinging screen door, once you own a retractable screen, you’ll likely never go back.

Retractable screens avoid DISTRACTING by RETRACTING

Your front door is the first thing anyone notices when they approach your home. So, why would you want your beautiful front door covered up with a traditional screen door? Retractable screens disappear and blend into the background while not in use, so you can have the aesthetically pleasing best of both worlds.

Never needing to open two doors as you come and go

How aggravating is it navigating through two doors while trying to carry in groceries, baby carriers, and kids? With a retractable screen that disappears, there’s one less thing in your way as you rush through your day. Go in and out in a snap and enjoy the breeze when you’re finally able to relax!

Invisible Visibility

Sure, the “invisible when not in use” aspect is one of the best things about a retractable screen. But, did you know that even when in use, your view is crystal clear through practically invisible bug screen fabric? Unlike a traditional screen door, you’ll enjoy privacy from the inside with no distracting or busy screen designs or kick plates inhibiting your view.

Truly free flowing breeze

Because there is no grill work, kick plate, or panels inhibiting airflow, a retractable screen lets you fully enjoy the free flowing breeze you’d feel as though there were nothing there at all. Why only get half the breeze on a beautiful day, when you can enjoy breathing the free flowing air through your retractable screen.

Longer Life

Because the screen fabric is rolled up and protected in its housing off to the side of your door when not in use, it lasts much longer. Unlike traditional swinging screen doors, your screen fabric is protected from permanent exposure to your kids, pets, and weather. The result? A longer lasting screen!

What a great company! Our garage door screen separated on one side and we got an appointment for between noon and 2 PM today. At the stroke of 12, Bob arrives! He spent nearly an hour, cleaning all the rails, fixing a squeak and reattaching the side (it's basically a zipper but the frame needed to be removed to get to the ends). Very happy with his work. Update: so here it is, 3 years after our initial installation and one of our remotes went belly-up. After calling the company, we got an appointment for a few days later. Jack came to our house at the appointed time and performed some magic (aka, reprogrammed the remote) and within 10 minutes, all was right with the world! And under warranty, so no charge! Great company!

I highly recommend Michele's Hide-a-Way Screen company for you garage. The installer showed up right on schedule. He showed us exactly what he was going to do and proceeded. After installing, he meticulously powered the screen up and down to remove any uneven-ness and/or wrinkles. My garage floor wasn't the most level and he made absoluyely sure there were no gaps anywhere. Now our entire house has plenty of cross ventilation with zero leaves or bugs in the garage. Also, the privacy, while working in the garage, is a big plus.

Great experience as usual with Michele's Hide-Away! Used them several times and always happy with their products and service. This time they installed a beautiful laundry door to garage retractable screen. We absolutely love it! Let's a nice breeze though the house with all the windows open in Spring and Fall of the year. Excellent company to do business with!
