Frequently asked questions

Can exterior shades be used on patios and lanais?

Eligible patios, lanais, balconies, and outdoor openings can be evaluated for exterior shade or zipper-screen systems based on dimensions and mounting conditions.

Do exterior screens block heat and glare?

They can reduce direct sun and glare at an opening, but the result depends on fabric, orientation, weather, operation, and installation.

Are exterior screens hurricane shutters?

Not automatically. A screen should not be described as storm or hurricane protection unless the specific product has the required documentation and approval.
