Why are screened garages so common in Florida?

Why are screened garages so common in Florida?

We Floridians know that our garages are more than just a place to store our cars and tools. A garage can be a great untapped resource in your home, and with a retractable screen garage door, we can enjoy the best of both the indoors and fresh outdoor Florida air. Screened garages are standard in Florida for many reasons.

Extra Square Footage - On average, a garage measures 360 square feet! That's 360 square feet of extra space that can be turned into a game room, man cave, gym or wherever else your imagination takes you. Enjoy a brand new room combined with fresh Florida breeze.

Privacy and Security - With a retractable screen door on your Florida home's garage, you can see out easily, and it's harder for others to see in. Without a retractable screen, an open garage door is kind of an open invitation for the neighbors to see everything you're doing.

Keeps you bug-free - No matter what time of year it is in Florida, those pesky bugs seem to find a way to get to you. A retractable screen door on your garage lets you enjoy your Florida garage space free of pesky mosquitoes, insects and other pests that spend their days and nights in Florida's great outdoors. A retractable garage screen lets you enjoy your garage and the outside protected from the outdoor elements.

Fresh Florida Air - This time of year is the greatest time of year in the Sunshine State. A lovely, serene, relaxing environment outside in the fresh air is yours to enjoy by screening in the garage door.

Fits like a glove - A retractable screen door for your garage can be customized to fit your particular garage size and comes in colors like black, white and charcoal to blend with your existing garage door perfectly.

We are very pleased with our roll down garage screen installed by Jack from Michele’s Hide-Away screens. He did a very professional job, and explained everything to us.

We went to Michele’s Hideaway Screens and Awnings with the intention of asking detailed questions about the product, installation, warranty, pricing, company background, privacy options, security, and weather durability. When we arrived, we spoke with Mick, who sat with us and answered every question thoroughly. He showed us samples of the screens, demonstrated how they operate, and explained what they would look like once installed. He also provided a clear timeframe for when the screen would be available. Because we could see the quality of the products firsthand — along with the professionalism and customer service in how our questions were handled — we decided to move forward and placed an order for the Super Screen, which allows for a bit more airflow into the garage. Our order was placed on June 25th, and installation was completed on July 31st, exactly within the timeframe they had given us. Bob arrived on time and took great care with the installation, doing an excellent job. He left the area clean and took the time to explain how to properly maintain the screen. Overall, the experience from start to finish was smooth, professional, and reassuring. We are very pleased with both the product and the service we received.

The screens for our garage were installed. They slide easily. They improve the appearance of the house. The garage clutter is no longer visible. I have recommended Michele's Hideaway screens to a neighbor and a friend. All have noticed how nice they look.
