Garage Door Solar Screens

Take a minute to write an introduction that is short, sweet, and to the point.

Energy Efficiency Starts at the Garage Door

Garage door solar screens are an innovative solution for homeowners looking to enhance comfort and energy efficiency. These custom-fit screens attach to your garage door, blocking harmful UV rays and reducing heat buildup while allowing natural light to filter through. Perfect for garages used as workshops, gyms, or hangout spaces, solar screens help maintain a cooler environment, lower energy costs, and protect interiors from sun damage—all without sacrificing ventilation or visibility.

Checklist for Installing Solar Screens in Your Garage

  • HOA Approval: Before adding solar screens or vinyl roller shades, confirm with your HOA to ensure compliance with neighborhood rules for exterior modifications.

  • Vehicle Height Clearance: Measure the height of vehicles entering the garage to ensure the solar screen doesn’t obstruct access when lowered.

  • Mounting Location (Between Jamb): If mounting the solar screen or shade between the jamb, note that this reduces clearance height. Check if this impacts functionality.

  • Exterior Mounting Option: For more space, consider an outside mount above the trim. This boosts durability and maintains garage access while enhancing privacy.

  • Electrical Cord Placement: Plan where to plug in the motorized solar screen’s cord. Ensure a nearby outlet or extension for safe operation.

  • Keychain Remote Option: Ask about adding a keychain remote for convenient control of your solar screens or vinyl roller shades, especially for frequent use.

  • Garage Painting: Planning to paint the garage or trim soon? Tackle it before installation to avoid damaging your new exterior solar screens and ensure a seamless look.
