Fixed Screens In Independence
Fixed Screens for Decks and Porches in Independence, MO
Our Solar Shield Blinds Fixed Screens close the gable ends and odd shaped openings on an Independence deck or porch that a patio shade can't cover. Each one is built on site, with no bars across the opening to interrupt the view of the yard.
Where It Fits In Independence
Where Fixed Screens fit in Independence
Covered decks on the newer homes, old screened porches on the older ones and pergolas with angled sides all have openings a shade leaves behind, and Fixed Screens close them.
- Gable ends on covered decksA covered deck behind a newer two story has a peaked roof. A Fixed Screen closes the triangle above the shades with no bar across it.
- Old screened porchesA screened porch on an older house near the Square or in Englewood can be refreshed with Fixed Screens in a no-see-um weave or a solar screen.
- Openings between deck postsThe narrow spaces between posts on a raised deck, or under it, take Fixed Screens in the same screen as the shades.
- Pergolas with angled sidesSloped openings where a pergola's beams angle down get a Fixed Screen cut to fit.
Worth Knowing
Closing in the porch without bars across the view
Our Fixed Screens are designed to keep the view as clear as possible, with no vertical or horizontal supports across the opening. They cover the shapes a patio shade can't: the triangle under a gable roof, the slope where a beam angles down, an arch, or the narrow gaps between deck posts. In Independence that means the gable over a covered deck on a newer east side home and the worn screens on an older porch near the Square alike.
Fixed Screens are made to pair with Exterior Patio Shades. The shades drop over the wide openings when the afternoon sun comes around, and the Fixed Screens hold the gable and the angles above and beside them. With the same screen and track color in both, the deck or porch looks finished from the yard. Each Fixed Screen is built on site: we cut the track to fit the opening and roll the screen in with a heavy duty spline.
The screen choices are a standard bug screen, a 70% bug screen, a no-see-um weave, and solar screens at 80%, 90% and 95%. A west facing deck does best with one of the tighter solar screens, which cut glare as well as keeping bugs out, and a porch used on summer nights does best with the no-see-um weave against the smallest insects.
