Screened Patios in Austin
V-Track Screens convert an ordinary patio into a flexible, screened patio for Austin homeowners. The screens are motorized, custom-built to each opening, and installed by an authorized local dealer — there are no off-the-shelf kits.
Planning a Screened Patio in Austin
Austin's climate brings over 300 days of sunshine per year and triple-digit heat from June through September. Spring brings unpredictable severe weather including hail and high winds. Mosquitoes thrive from March through November thanks to warm temperatures and moisture from nearby lakes and creeks.
For a screened patio in Austin, Texas, those local conditions shape the right setup. Insect pressure in the area is high, sun exposure is very high, and wind risk is moderate, so an authorized V-Track dealer can match the fabric — insect mesh, solar shade, or clear vinyl — and the screen configuration to how the screened patio is actually used. Every system is custom-built to the opening and installed by a local authorized dealer; V-Track Screens are manufactured by Keder Screens, not installed by the manufacturer directly.
The Challenge in Austin
For many Austin, Texas households the patio is the least-used part of the home precisely because it is the most exposed. Insects, glare, and weather each shorten the hours it is comfortable, and traditional fixes tackle them piecemeal.

How V-Track Solves It
Because the fabric is locked into a continuous keder channel under tension, a V-Track screened patio holds up where loose-fit screens rattle or pull loose. Choose insect mesh, solar shade, or clear vinyl, operate it by switch or remote, and open the patio fully whenever you like. Measurement and installation are handled by an authorized V-Track dealer; the system is manufactured by Keder Screens.

Frequently Asked Questions — Screened Patios in Austin
What determines the cost of a screened patio project?
Cost depends on the number and size of openings, the chosen fabric, and the level of automation. An authorized V-Track dealer in Austin, Texas provides a free on-site measurement and a quote built for your specific patio — every system is custom, with no standard kit sizes.
Can a screened patio open up completely?
Yes. V-Track screens retract into a compact headbox, leaving the Austin patio fully open to the air. You lower them for insects, sun, or weather and raise them again whenever conditions are pleasant, so the patio is never permanently enclosed.
How are screened patio systems operated?
V-Track patio screens are motorized and operate from a wall switch or remote. Many Austin homeowners integrate them with home-automation systems for scheduled or one-touch operation across the patio.
Do screened patio screens help with sun and heat in Austin?
Solar shade fabric on a V-Track patio system is designed to cut glare and radiant heat while keeping an outward view, which helps during the long, sunny seasons common in Austin, Texas. An authorized dealer can match the fabric openness to the patio's sun exposure.
Do patio screens restrict airflow in humid areas like Austin?
Insect and solar mesh fabrics are designed to keep cross-ventilation moving while screening the patio, so it feels open rather than stuffy during humid weather in Austin. For maximum airflow, the screens retract completely into the headbox.
