Imagine lounging on your patio, the sun dipping low, a soft breeze whispering through the trees—and you effortlessly press a button to lower sleek, motorized-screens. With the right system, your outdoor area becomes an all-weather, bug-free oasis.
At Fenetex (installed locally by Knutsen Outdoor), these motorized screens are built to elevate your outdoor living. They can block up to 97% of sunlight, helping tame glare and unwanted heat. They’re also designed to keep insects out—perfect for enjoying evenings without the “bug buzz.” They fit well on wood or vinyl structures, whether it’s a deck, pergola, or pavilion.
Why they make sense:
- Comfort year-round: Shade screens reduce intense sun, making the space cooler and more usable. Insect or vinyl screens help transform the space for evenings or cooler months.
- Better usability & value: For a restaurant, event venue or homeowner, enclosing the outdoor zone means more use—rain or shine—and more enjoyment.
- Sleek, integrated look: Fenetex designs the components and partners manufacture them, so the installation looks seamless and professional.
Tips for considering an install:
- Think about how you’ll use the space: daytime lounging? Evening entertaining? Dining outdoors? That drives screen type and fabric choice (shade vs insect vs clear vinyl).
- Factor in the structure: Do you already have a pergola, deck, pavilion or are you planning one? The screens work with standard wood or vinyl frames.
- Consider controls: Motorization means ease—think remote, wall switch, even automation based on sun or wind sensors.
- Ask about maintenance and warranty: Since the components are designed by the brand and installed by a local pro, make sure you understand upkeep and support.
If you’re ready to turn your porch, pergola or patio into a functional, comfortable outdoor room, these motorized screens are worth exploring.
