The screens on the front porch are impact rated to protect the front porch doors and windows from damage. Once the mounting track is installed, the screens can be put up or taken down as needed.
In addition to hurricane protection, the screens also provide shade for the porch.
Screens can be put up and taken down quickly with properly installed tracks
