The clear vinyl option is great for both residential and commercial projects and has the option to integrate motorized screens featuring mesh fabrics by stacking rollers and enhancing natural ventilation when needed. The vinyl screens will protect your porch or patio from rain, snow and cold weather while allowing you to utilize the space of your home that would otherwise be neglected throughout the year. With harsh weather in mind, experience with most applications has shown that extended units can withstand wind speeds of up to 50 mph (80 kph) with no damage. What I love about using clear vinyl with our Executive screens is how much it transforms your home and how you live said C. Esther De Wolde, CEO of Phantom Screens. On a covered porch, for example, vinyl screens make the difference between using it a few days a year to using it all year round. You create an extra room in your house that feels like being outside even though you have all the comforts of being inside! Clear vinyl is now available on select Executive motorized screens through its authorized distribution network and comes in 4 distinct colors including black, sand, white and brown. More info on this new screen solution will be posted on Phantom Screens website at
