How V-Track Solves It for Covered Patios

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.

The motorized operation with solar screen fabric with selectable openness factors gives covered patio owners instant control, filtering UV rays and reducing heat gain while maintaining outward visibility and natural light.

The Problem with Unscreened Covered Patios

Without proper screening, a covered patio in Lake Charles is at the mercy of the elements. When direct sun exposure makes patios unbearably hot during peak hours, the space sits empty instead of being enjoyed.

In Lake Charles, covered patio owners face high sun exposure — making the right screen system essential.

  • Direct sun makes the patio unusable during peak hours
  • Awnings and umbrellas block the view and feel enclosed
  • UV exposure damages outdoor furniture and flooring

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
