Clear Vinyl Porch Enclosure Panels

Serving Upstate South Carolina and Western North Carolina

Screen Porch and Patio Enclosure Options:

Enclose your porch for winter time use, blocking wind, rain, and cold air.  We have four options for enclosing your porch to create a warmer more comfortable porch.  Temporarily enclosing your porch also allows for regular Spring, Fall and Summertime use of your porch. 

Each option offers specific benefits for protecting your screen porch or restaurant patio.  We can help you determine the best solution for your porch and budget.

We sell, install, and service Clear Vinyl Porch Panels and Eze-Breeze Porch Enclosure Systems.  Choose from manual cord pulley roll-up clear vinyl porch panels, manual worm gear operated clear vinyl roll-up panels with side tracks, motorized retractable clear vinyl panels, or Eze-Breeze four track versatile porch enclosure system.

Unlike paneling a porch with glass windows or walls that create a permanent room that needs to be cooled in summer months, adding clear vinyl curtains allows the homeowner to roll-up curtains up or stow them away in summer. 

The purpose of having a porch, patio, or outdoor living room is to experience the joys of nature.  Adding a sunroom or permanently enclosing an existing screen porch separates the homeowner from the beautiful outdoors and fresh air. Enjoy nature during warmer months by rolling-up or taking down clear vinyl panels.

Clear vinyl panels are a great option for enclosing a porch or restaurant patio to extend enjoyment past the normal seasonal use.  They block cold winter winds, rain, pollen, and protect patio furniture.

Our Clear Vinyl Cord Pulley Panels are made with a 20 mil soft clear vinyl with Sunbrella surround material at the bottom, top, and along sides. Panels are secured to porch post members with turn screws.  Grommets are added to panels’ sides.  Turn screws are added to customer’s porch post which secure panels to openings.  A simple pulley is added to lift and lower panels.  Cord Pulley Clear Vinyl Panels great for porch openings that are ten feet wide or less than ten feet wide.  Panels can be installed on screen porches or open porches.  You may choose to have us install on the inside of porch or outside of porch.

Another simple option for enclosing your screen porch or restaurant patio for wintertime use is our clear vinyl snap-in panels. Panels are made similar to the cord pulley panels with Sunbrella surround material and clear vinyl windows, but they are secured to porch openings with marine snaps.  Customers may take panels down during warmer months and stow under a bed or in a basement.  This is a good option for smaller porches with shorter openings. Panels can be made to accommodate obtuse openings like Zia Taqueria Restaurant in the photo and screen doors.  Clear vinyl panels can be snapped easily to screen doors and taken off during warmer months.

We sell the Universal Clear Vinyl motorized retractable panels that are made in Texas.  Universal uses 20 gauge Fenestra clear vinyl windows.

Borders are made with choice of Ferrari Satin solid vinyl or Sattler solid vinyl.  Ferrari Satin is a high-performing solid vinyl with long-term durability, UV resistance, heat and weather protection, and color retention. Engineered under Serge Ferrari’s Précontraint® process, this material gives excellent structural stability. The polyester material is mildew repellent, heat sealable, and easy to maintain.

Panels roll-up out of the way into an extruded aluminum powder coated cassette cover.  

We also offer the DuraScreen brand that has the dual system option.  You may have clear vinyl panels and screen mesh panels that hide-away when not needed and drop effortlessly down when protection from weather or insects is needed. See the dual system in action on our DuraScreen webpage. DuraScreen Clear Vinyl Motorized Panels can be made to cover a 22’ porch span. And up to 14’ tall.  Weight bar and side tracks are extruded aluminum in an anodized black finish.  DuraScreen units do not have a cassette cover. DuraScreen Systems is located in Jordan, Minnesota.

Constraints:

  • Clear vinyl is a vulnerable material that clouds when exposed to UV rays and becomes brittle in temperatures below -10 degrees Fahrenheit

Clear vinyl panels are the perfect choice for restaurant and wedding venue owners that have large outdoor eating spaces.  Clear vinyl roll-up panels allow you to seat customers outside maximizing occupancy during winter months.
