Solar screen fabric blocks UV and radiant heat while maintaining outward visibility. V-Track motorized screens are designed for covered patio outdoor living spaces.

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.

By guiding solar screen fabric with selectable openness factors through extruded aluminum channels on the covered patio, V-Track eliminates gaps and loose edges — filtering UV rays and reducing heat gain while maintaining outward visibility and natural light. A certified dealer in Jacksonville takes precise measurements and installs the system for a clean, finished result.

Comfortable shade that blocks UV and heat while preserving your view and natural light.

Why Other Solutions Fall Short

  • Fixed awnings block the view and trap heat underneath
  • Shade sails offer inconsistent coverage and sag over time
  • Interior blinds don't address radiant heat from the outside

Built for Florida Conditions

Jacksonville's northeast Florida location blends coastal humidity with subtropical heat, producing long summers that stretch from April into November. The St. Johns River and extensive marshlands create ideal mosquito breeding grounds throughout the metro area. Nor'easters and tropical systems bring periodic high winds and flooding rains, while summer UV intensity rivals anywhere on the East Coast. V-Track's extruded aluminum side channels and marine-grade hardware are engineered to withstand these conditions season after season on covered patio outdoor living spaces. V-Track screens are installed across the Jacksonville area by authorized dealers.
