During storm season, protecting your property from harsh winds, heavy rains and debris becomes the topmost priority. While most people pay attention to protecting their windows and doors they often forget that outdoor spaces such as patios, balconies and porches also need protection against nature’s elements.
Using plastic sheets can provide some level of protection but they are inconvenient and reduce the curb appeal of your home. This is where MagnaTrack screens can help by offering a hurricane-rated, motorized solution for safeguarding your outdoor areas while maintaining a sleek, modern look.
Protecting Outdoor Spaces from Hurricanes
Storms come with high wind speeds which can cause serious damage to exposed areas. Without complete protection exposed outdoor spaces like balconies and patios can experience:
- Rain Damage – Water can seep in through open areas, leading to leaks and interior damage.
- Flying Debris Hazards – Any unsecured outdoor furniture, loose objects and tree branches can strike windows and cause them to shatter.
- Structural Stress – High winds can create intense pressure changes in open spaces, increasing the risk of structural damage.
Thus, securing these spaces with a robust barrier like MagnaTrack screens becomes vital to reduce storm-related risks and prevent costly repairs.
How MagnaTrack Screens Provide Superior Protection
MagnaTrack screens are different from standard motorized screens as they use advanced self-tensioning technology which makes them a highly wind-resistant and durable option. Here’s why they are a must-have for individuals living in hurricane-prone areas:
Wind Resistance
Unlike traditional screens which can easily sag, tear, or detach under windy weather conditions, MagnaTrack screens are engineered to withstand strong winds. Their self-adjusting track system keeps them firmly in place even under intense pressure.
Flying Debris Protection
Loose objects can fly around during hurricanes, turning into dangerous projectiles. MagnaTrack screens provide an extra barrier of protection that helps block flying debris, reducing the risk of damage to windows, doors and other outdoor belongings.
Motorized Operation
One of the key features of MagnaTrack screens is their motorized control. By simply pressing a button, you can lower the screens before a hurricane. When the weather clears up, you can easily retract them with a button without any manual effort.
Stylish Design
These screens have a stylish, durable design that fits even wide spaces without any bending or sagging. This ensures a clean, modern look while providing reliable protection.
Minimal Maintenance
These screens don’t have any cables or pulleys and need only occasional cleaning to maintain performance and appearance.
Year-Round Benefits
Other than offering superior hurricane defense, MagnaTrack screens also improve outdoor comfort all year round by helping block UV rays, preventing your furniture and other belongings from fading. They keep out insects by acting as a protective barrier and improve privacy by creating a secluded space, preventing passersby from peeking inside.
