Garage Door Screens That Add Comfort, Style & Usable Space
Transform Your Garage into a Functional Living Space
Adding a garage door screen is one of the simplest ways to turn an underused garage into a comfortable, well-ventilated extension of your home—without the expense of a major remodel. At ScreenPro Patios & Sunrooms, we install retractable, motorized, and magnetic garage door screens designed to handle Southeast Texas heat, humidity, and hurricane conditions.
Whether you want a breezy workshop, a bug-free play area, or an open-air entertainment zone, our custom-fit screens deliver fresh air, shade, and privacy while keeping pests and debris outside where they belong.
What Is a Garage Door Screen?
A garage door screen is a mesh barrier—mounted in a track system, retractable cassette, or magnetic frame—that lets air and natural light in while blocking insects, debris, and UV rays. Built with fiberglass or polyester mesh and supported by durable aluminum frames, these screens can be opened or closed in seconds, letting you switch between full access and total protection.

Benefits of Garage Door Screens
1. Improved Ventilation & Airflow
Screens keep your garage cooler by allowing maximum airflow while reducing heat buildup and improving indoor air quality. Airflow by Type:
Screen Type | Airflow Rate (CFM) | Mesh Open Area | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
Retractable Fiberglass | 1,200 | 78% | Maximum ventilation |
Magnetic Polyester | 900 | 65% | Quick, budget-friendly installs |
Sliding Roll-Up | 1,000 | 70% | Balanced airflow & durability |
2. Pest & Debris Protection
Tightly woven mesh keeps out mosquitoes, gnats, leaves, and dust—ideal for turning your garage into a clean, comfortable workspace or play area.
3. Expanded Living Space
Turn your garage into a gym, workshop, man cave, hobby room, or entertainment space while keeping the fresh-air feel.
4. Privacy & Security
Tinted or opaque mesh reduces visibility from the street while still letting you see out. Optional lockable frames add an extra layer of security.
5. Energy Efficiency
By allowing hot air to escape naturally, garage screens reduce reliance on fans and A/C—potentially lowering summer cooling costs by up to 10%.
