If you’ve been considering upgrading your outdoor living space, here are five reasons to schedule your screen installation before the New Year.

1. Enhanced Winter Comfort and Extended Use

Retain Heat and Extend Your Season

MagnaTrack offers a range of screen options designed to keep you comfortable during the long winter months:

• • Vinyl Screens: The ultimate winter solution with panels to trap heat, retain warmth and create a four-season outdoor room perfect for relaxing or entertaining even when temperatures drop.
• • Defender Hurricane Screens: Built for unparalleled impact absorption, these heavy-duty screens protect against Category 5 hurricane winds exceeding 156 mph, while offering stellar wind resistance to minimize cold drafts.

No matter the weather, MagnaTrack screens help you create an outdoor space that’s comfortable and usable all year long, transforming chilly patios into warm, functional rooms.

2. Improved Outdoor Aesthetics

Seamless Integration With Home Design

Each MagnaTrack system is built with top-quality extruded aluminum housing and tracks, stainless steel fasteners, and powder-coated finishes to resist corrosion, peeling, and chipping.
The screens can be recessed into new construction or retrofitted onto existing structures, blending beautifully with your home’s design.

Choose from a wide selection of screen fabrics, vinyls, and six standard frame colors or request a custom color match to perfectly complement your architecture.

Enhanced Outdoor Living Spaces

Your outdoor area becomes an elegant, all-season extension of your home. Whether you’re hosting family for the holidays or enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, MagnaTrack creates a clean, modern, and comfortable environment that feels like an extra room.

3. Increased Privacy

Barrier from Prying Eyes

In densely populated neighborhoods, privacy can be hard to find. MagnaTrack screens act as a flexible visual barrier, giving you the peace of mind to relax without feeling exposed.

Customizable Visibility

With just the touch of a button, you can adjust your screens for full visibility, filtered light, or complete seclusion depending on the time of day or activity. It’s privacy when you want it, openness when you don’t.

4. Increased Home Value

Appeal to Potential Buyers

Outdoor motorized screens instantly elevate your property’s functionality and aesthetic appeal. Buyers appreciate features that combine comfort, convenience, and advanced technology; especially from a trusted American-made brand like MagnaTrack.

Certified, Best-in-Class Protection

MagnaTrack’s Defender Hurricane Screen System meets or exceeds the strictest building codes in the world, including Miami-Dade and Florida building code standards for roll-down hurricane protection. It also meets or surpasses ASTM and TAS testing standards, with spans up to 30 feet wide and design pressures up to ±200 PSF.

With its limited lifetime warranty and U.S. Patent No. 9,719,272, MagnaTrack stands apart as the world’s best-performing exterior motorized screen system.

Beyond exceptional hurricane defense, this construction provides unmatched durability against freezing winds and severe winter conditions.

5. Improved Home Energy Efficiency

Reduce Heating Costs and Retain Indoor Warmth

Vinyl screens act as a strong thermal barrier for windows and doors, reducing heat loss from your home. By insulating your patio area, you’ll lower your overall energy usage during colder months and maintain a comfortable indoor temperature, reducing the strain on your heating system.

Protect Furniture and Finishes

By filtering harmful UV rays, MagnaTrack screens prevent fading, cracking, and discoloration of outdoor furniture and flooring, especially beneficial for sunrooms or covered areas exposed to low-angle winter sun.

The MagnaTrack Difference: Patented Performance You Can Trust

Unlike traditional zipper systems that can jam, snag, or rewrap, MagnaTrack’s dual-pull magnetic design delivers smooth, reliable operation even under high wind pressure. Using rare earth Neodymium magnets, the system allows the screen to flex during impact and automatically re-tension once pressure subsides, maintaining a flat, uniform screen surface every time.

With Gaposa smart motor technology, you can control your screens by app, remote, or schedule them to open and close automatically with the sun. Combined with MagnaTrack’s industry-leading construction and precision engineering, it’s a system built for performance and convenience that lasts.

Don’t Wait! Enjoy Comfort All Year Long

As the holidays approach, there’s no better time to invest in your home’s comfort and protection. Installing MagnaTrack screens before the New Year means you’ll start 2026 with a space ready for every season — cozy and warm in the winter and protected year-round.
