How V-Track Solves It for Covered Patios

V-Track solar screens use specialized fabric with selectable openness factors to control how much light and heat passes through. The continuous track retention ensures the fabric stays flat and tensioned, providing even shade coverage without billowing or sagging. Retract the screens when you want full sun.

V-Track's engineering pairs solar screen fabric with selectable openness factors with a motorized sealed track that fits covered patios of virtually any span, filtering UV rays and reducing heat gain while maintaining outward visibility and natural light. The system retracts fully when not needed and deploys at the press of a button. Local Birmingham dealers provide turnkey measurement and installation.
