Cut heat, glare, and UV without losing your view with a properly fitted solar screen. Since 2016, El Paso Screens has installed and repaired solar screen systems for homes and storefronts, including window screens, patio enclosures, and shade panels.
Every solar screen job starts with accurate measuring and a solid frame base. We inspect your existing frames, corners, spline channel, and mounting points, then confirm opening size, squareness, and reveal so the screen sits flat and seals tight. For new builds, we fabricate aluminum screen frames (typically 5-16 inch or 1 inch profiles), reinforce as needed with center bars, and use stainless-steel screws and proper clips so the assembly stays rigid and serviceable.
Local sun and wind put solar screen mesh and hardware to work every day, so we match materials to the exposure. We install exterior-grade solar screen fabric (commonly 80% or 90% shade factor) using UV-stable spline, clean corners, and even tension to prevent waves, rub marks, and early tears. For repair work, we re-screen panels, replace bent frames, swap worn pull tabs, and tune the fit so panels slide, latch, and remove correctly for window cleaning and seasonal maintenance.
Customers choose us because we treat solar screen work like a system, not a quick staple job. You get straightforward recommendations on shade factor, frame thickness, and mounting method based on heat load, privacy needs, and window size. Our crews use clean cuts, tight miters, proper spline diameter, and consistent fastening, and we protect stucco, brick, and painted trim while we work. We also communicate clearly, show up on schedule, and leave you with screens that look uniform across the facade.
At the end, we do a walkthrough and verify each solar screen is seated, secure, and easy to operate. We check for light gaps, frame rattle, corner separation, mesh puckers, and hardware that could loosen over time, then we clean the work area and haul off old material if requested. You receive a free written estimate up front, clear scope details for install or repair, and practical care guidance so your solar screens keep performing through the hottest months.
Yes. We provide a free written estimate after confirming the openings, materials, and any hardware or frame repairs needed.
Sometimes. If the frame can be straightened and the corners are sound, we may repair and re-screen it. If it is bowed, cracked, or does not seat correctly, we will recommend replacement.
Yes. We can replace or adjust rollers, clean and tune tracks, and address common issues like sticking, dragging, and poor latch engagement.
Common options include fiberglass, aluminum, solar screen, pet-resistant mesh, and stainless steel for select applications. We will recommend the best fit based on traffic, sun exposure, and durability needs.
Yes. We support property managers and businesses with repeatable sizing, durable materials, and scheduling that minimizes disruption.
A solar screen is one of the simplest upgrades for improving comfort in sun-exposed rooms. By adding exterior solar screen mesh to windows, doors, and openings, you reduce solar heat gain and glare before it hits the glass, which can help HVAC systems cycle less and keep interior temperatures more even. El Paso Screens handles full solar screen installation and solar screen repair, including re-screening damaged panels, replacing worn hardware, and fabricating new aluminum frames for a cleaner, tighter fit.
Good solar screen performance depends on details that are easy to miss: correct frame depth so the screen sits flush, consistent corner squareness so gaps do not appear, and proper spline size so the mesh stays locked in the channel through heat cycles. We measure each opening, confirm how the screen will mount (turn-buttons, hangers, clips, or track systems), then build or tune the panel so it removes easily for cleaning while staying secure in wind.
For solar screen repair, we can often restore your existing frames by replacing the mesh and spline, tightening or replacing corner keys, and correcting fit issues that cause rattling or rubbing. If the frame is twisted, cracked, or too thin for the opening, we will recommend a new aluminum frame with reinforcement where needed. We also replace common wear items like pull tabs, plungers, latches, and fasteners so the screen operates the way it should.
If you want a cooler room, less glare on TVs and monitors, and added daytime privacy without sacrificing ventilation, solar screen panels are a practical, exterior-first solution. Tell us what problems you are trying to solve, and we will recommend the right shade factor, frame build, and mounting approach.
