Hurricane Screen Systems

Rolldown hurricane mesh screens: a modern protection solution

Rolldown hurricane mesh screens are quickly becoming one of the most popular and effective solutions for storm protection across Florida. Unlike bulky aluminum shutters or temporary storm panels, these advanced systems create a strong, flexible barrier that blocks wind, rain, and flying debris before they reach your home. Their sleek, minimalistic appearance complements both modern and traditional properties, offering safety without compromising design.

The motorized version of these hurricane screens takes convenience and speed to the next level. With just the push of a button, the screens deploy smoothly to secure your home — no ladders, tools, or complex setup required. This automation removes the stress of last-minute hurricane prep, allowing you to activate full protection within seconds. When not in use, the screens roll up discreetly, maintaining the property’s clean lines and unobstructed views. For Tampa Bay homeowners and businesses that experience sudden weather changes, this quick-deploy system offers peace of mind and reliable performance.

Protect your outdoor spaces year-round

A key advantage of hurricane mesh screens is their ability to protect outdoor living areas like patios, lanais, porches, and balconies. With these systems in place, you can leave furniture, décor, and plants where they are — even as storms approach. The mesh blocks high winds and rain while still allowing airflow, keeping your space bright and comfortable. Once hurricane season ends, the same screens help you enjoy your outdoor areas during sunny or breezy days, providing shade, privacy, and bug protection.

These systems can be operated in multiple ways — from manual hand-crank options to fully motorized versions controlled by wall switches, key fobs, or remote transmitters. They come in several frame colors and mesh tones, so they integrate beautifully with your property’s color scheme. Whether installed at a beachfront residence or a commercial patio, they add year-round usability and refined style while ensuring serious storm protection.

Enjoy unobstructed views and natural light

One of the biggest benefits of hurricane mesh screens is the ability to protect without losing visibility. Each screen is made with high-tensile Super Screen® mesh, engineered to resist tearing, punctures, and stretching — yet it remains see-through. You can still enjoy your views while blocking up to 95% of UV rays and reducing solar heat gain.

The material offers a perfect balance between shade and transparency. During the day, it cuts glare and heat for a cooler environment, and during a storm, it becomes a durable defense shield that prevents debris from hitting glass windows or doors. Even in strong winds, the mesh absorbs and disperses pressure, reducing potential structural stress. The result is a lighter, more attractive, and equally protective alternative to traditional metal shutters.

Flexible installation options for any property

Every property is unique, and hurricane screen systems are built with flexibility in mind. They can be installed in a variety of configurations:

• Inside or outside mounting for different frame types
• Under-header installation for a hidden, built-in appearance
• Face-mounted systems for quick retrofit projects
• Recessed soffit or ceiling integration for seamless finishes in new construction

This range of options ensures a custom fit for each structure, whether it’s a residential home, condominium, restaurant, or commercial building. Many homeowners in Clearwater and the greater Tampa Bay area appreciate recessed installations that blend the protective housing with their architectural design, achieving a balance of form and function.

Built to last — precision and performance

Each hurricane screen system is custom-manufactured to exact measurements. That precision ensures tight coverage, minimal gaps, and maximum protection. Every component — from the powder-coated aluminum frame to the reinforced mesh and corrosion-resistant fasteners — is engineered to withstand Florida’s coastal climate, including salt air, humidity, and intense UV exposure.

Before installation, each system undergoes extensive testing to meet or exceed Florida Building Code and Miami-Dade standards. This level of quality control guarantees that your hurricane screens are storm-rated, dependable, and designed for years of service. For added reliability, optional motorized units include sealed motors and weatherproof controls built for outdoor environments.

The process is designed for efficiency, ensuring minimal disruption to your property while delivering a perfect custom fit.

Once installed, the system requires very little maintenance — just occasional rinsing with water to remove dust or salt buildup. Routine checks before hurricane season help ensure everything operates smoothly. RollShield also offers local service, inspections, and adjustments to maintain top performance over time. With ongoing support and professional care, your investment remains strong year after year.

Everyday benefits beyond hurricane season

While the main purpose of rolldown screens is storm protection, they deliver year-round lifestyle benefits:

• Insect protection: Keeps mosquitoes and flies out so you can enjoy evenings outdoors.
• Heat and glare reduction: Blocks UV rays to keep your patio or lanai cooler.
• Furniture protection: Prevents fading and sun damage on outdoor fabrics and wood.
• Privacy and comfort: Creates a soft visual barrier while maintaining natural airflow.
• Low maintenance: Easy to clean and built to last for many hurricane seasons.

These advantages make hurricane screens one of the most versatile additions for Florida homeowners — equally functional during daily use and life-saving when storms arrive.
