Blinds Brothers has served the Dallas Fort Worth area for more than 25 years, providing custom exterior screens with professional installation and local support.
Fort Worth patio screens have to do more than provide shade. Wind exposure, screen dimensions, fabric selection, mounting conditions, the surrounding structure, and everyday weather all influence the right system for the project.
Specific Tucson Solution Screen configurations have undergone controlled wind-tunnel testing at speeds up to 150 mph without failure. This applies only to the tested configurations and is not a universal wind rating for every installation. Blinds Brothers also backs exterior screen installations with a 10-year wind-damage warranty.
Warranty terms and conditions apply.
Motorized patio screens reduce heat and glare while helping Fort Worth homeowners enjoy their outdoor living space for more of the day. They provide adjustable shade when low-angle sunlight reaches covered patios, outdoor kitchens, seating areas, and other patio spaces, then retract when fresh air and a more open view are preferred. For a broader look at outdoor shades in Fort Worth, including windows, doors, garage openings, and other exterior applications, explore our available shade solutions.
The right screen type depends on how the patio is used and what matters most: solar protection, insect protection, privacy, airflow, fresh air, glare control, or maintaining outward visibility. Blinds Brothers offers solar screens with different openness levels so Fort Worth homeowners can choose the balance that fits the space.
Blinds Brothers offers Natte fabric colors that can coordinate with the house, patio structure, trim, outdoor furniture, and surrounding property.
Blinds Brothers' exterior screens use powder-coated aluminum housings and rails. Multiple housing sizes help support everything from smaller patio openings to large outdoor living spaces, with professional measurement used to determine the appropriate fit. The right housing, rail, motor, fabric, and mounting approach depend on the opening and intended use.
Motorized screens make patio shade simple to adjust as conditions change. Raise, stop, or lower compatible screens without manually handling the fabric, and control individual screens or groups depending on the system. The patio itself remains the focus. Motorization adds convenience so you can respond quickly when the sun shifts, neighbors are nearby, insects become active, or you simply want the space open again.
Use a compatible remote to operate one screen, one group, or multiple screens depending on the selected control setup. A wall-mounted magnetic base gives the handheld remote a convenient place to stay between uses.

Compatible motorized patio screens can be controlled through a smartphone app. The Connector app lets homeowners operate screens, create scenes, and schedule screen movement around how the outdoor living space is used. You can create scenes for different parts of the day, such as lowering screens before afternoon heat reaches the patio, then retracting them later when shade is no longer needed.
For homeowners who want connected control, compatible systems can integrate with supported smart-home platforms for app, voice, group, and scheduled operation.
Not every patio slab is perfectly level. The Tucson Adjustable Bottom Bar is designed to follow uneven concrete, pavers, or sloped patio surfaces so the screen can sit more closely against the bottom of the opening. Reducing that gap can help limit places where insects and debris enter. When the screen retracts, the adjustable bottom bar returns to level.

Where mounting conditions are suitable, motorized screens can add adjustable side protection to pergolas. They help control low-angle sun and glare while preserving airflow and the open character of the structure.
Motorized patio screens can add shade and insect protection around compatible covered outdoor kitchens, helping make cooking, dining, and seating areas more comfortable without turning the space into a permanent enclosure.
A screened porch can gain protection from insects and wind-blown debris while preserving visibility and airflow. Retractable operation lets homeowners open the porch fully when conditions are comfortable.

Blinds Brothers also installs exterior screen systems for windows, doors, sliding glass doors, garage openings, and certain commercial applications. A garage door opening, for example, may use a retractable screen to reduce direct sun and heat while preserving ventilation. Businesses can also use exterior screens for shade, glare, and privacy across suitable openings. Explore our Outdoor Shades options to learn more about solutions for different exterior spaces.
Exterior screens help reduce heat and harsh sun before it reaches the patio or adjacent glass. This is especially useful when afternoon sun enters a covered outdoor space from the side.
Verified Natte fabrics provide 90% to 97% heat and UV protection depending on openness. Reducing UV exposure can help protect outdoor furnishings and nearby interior surfaces from repeated sunlight.
Motorized screens can add daytime privacy and separation from neighbors while maintaining outward visibility. Privacy varies with fabric openness and lighting conditions, so the screens should not be treated as guaranteed one-way privacy at all times.
Appropriate mesh creates a barrier against mosquitoes, insects, and other pests while allowing airflow through the space. This helps homeowners enjoy fresh air without giving up screening protection.
The right fabric provides shade and glare control without completely blocking the view. Openness can be selected around the balance of visibility, solar protection, privacy, and insect control.
Every screen is measured for the specific opening so the housing, rails, fabric, and motor can work together with greater precision.
Control compatible systems through wall controls, a remote, a smartphone app, or supported smart-home integration.
By reducing solar heat before it reaches adjacent glass and sun-exposed areas, exterior screens can reduce cooling demand and support better energy efficiency during hot Texas weather.
The zip-guided system keeps screen fabric captured in the side rails, helping it stay aligned and taut during normal operation.
Blinds Brothers specializes in exterior solar screens and rolling shutters and has served Dallas-Fort Worth for more than 25 years. The company installs American-made Tucson Rolling Shutters & Screens products with local measurement, professional installation, and ongoing support.
One patio may demand maximum solar protection, while another needs more airflow, insect control, or visibility. Different fabrics make it possible to match the screen to the way the space is used.
Multiple screen systems support openings from smaller patios and doors to large outdoor spaces up to 32 feet wide, depending on the selected system.
The zip-tension system keeps fabric captured inside the side rails, helping the screen stay aligned during normal operation.
Most homeowners do not use a patio the same way from morning through evening. A space may need sun protection during the afternoon, insect protection after sunset, and full openness again when the weather becomes mild.
Motorized retractable screens let the patio adapt. Lower them for shade, glare control, privacy, and bugs, then retract them when you want the opening clear. This flexibility can help reclaim outdoor space that would otherwise go unused during uncomfortable parts of the day.For more information about available motorized exterior solar screens, explore our full range of options, features, and benefits.
