A well-designed patio should feel like a natural extension of the home, and motorized screens are one of the easiest ways to make that happen. They allow homeowners to enjoy fresh air and unobstructed views while adding protection from insects, harsh sun and Florida’s unpredictable weather—all without sacrificing style.
One recent project by family-owned and operated Patio Lane Outdoor Living in Clearwater demonstrates how motorized screens can transform a patio into a true outdoor living space. The waterfront home features seven dual-fabric motorized screens installed across the first and second floors. One fabric provides everyday shade and insect protection, while the other offers hurricane-rated storm protection. To preserve the home’s contemporary design, each screen housing is recessed into the ceiling with concealed side tracks, allowing the technology to virtually disappear when not in use.
Beyond motorized screens, Patio Lane helps homeowners complete their outdoor spaces with custom Sunbrella cushions and pillows, outdoor kitchens, pergolas, fire features, rugs, umbrellas and other curated elements designed for year-round Florida living.
