Serving Venice, Florida
Hurricane Screens in Venice
Motorized and manual hurricane screens that protect Venice lanais, patios, and wide openings from Gulf storms — then roll away out of sight, measured and installed by a local family-owned company.
Why hurricane screens make sense in Venice
Venice sits right on the Gulf, and homes from the island bungalows to the golf communities inland live around a screened lanai or patio. Those big openings are the hardest part of the house to protect before a storm — and hurricane screens close them off in seconds, blocking wind-driven debris and rain while the living space behind stays sealed.
Because so many Venice homes are seasonal, a motorized screen you can deploy on the way out of town — or remotely — is a real advantage. Modern screens use high-strength woven mesh rated for Florida wind loads and retract into a discreet housing when the weather clears. See our pricing policy for how we quote every job.
Storm protection without giving up the view
What motorized and manual hurricane screens deliver for Venice homes.
Protect wide openings
Screens cover lanais, patios, and multi-panel sliders that shutters cannot easily span — sealing the outdoor room in one pass.
Rated for Gulf-coast wind loads
We specify screens with Florida Product Approval and design pressures matched to Venice’s coastal exposure.
Everyday sun & shade control
Beyond storms, screens tame the Gulf-facing afternoon sun, glare, and heat on the lanai — useful year-round.
Keep the view
Woven mesh preserves your water, golf, or garden view and daylight while blocking debris — no dark plywood or metal panels.
One-touch motorized operation
Motorized screens deploy from a switch, remote, or phone in seconds — ideal for seasonal owners closing up before they travel.
Installed by locals
A family-owned, woman-owned Gulf Coast company measures and installs every Venice job — no subcontracted crews.
What we consider for Venice hurricane screen projects
A few local realities shape the right specification — we plan for them during your consultation.
Salt-air-ready components
Near the Gulf we specify corrosion-resistant hardware, housings, and fasteners so motors and tracks keep working in salt air.
Seasonal & remote operation
For part-time residents we set up motorized screens and controls that can be deployed quickly or remotely before a storm.
Coastal wind exposure
Gulf-front and near-shore homes see higher design pressures. We measure exposure and size screens, motors, and housings accordingly.
Permitting & inspection
Hurricane screen installation is permitted work in Sarasota County and the City of Venice. We pull the permit, schedule inspections, and keep the paperwork clean.
What Venice homeowners say about their hurricane screens
We had a great experience working with Nick on our plantation shutters and smart drapes. He was so friendly, knowledgeable, and really knew his products. Everything turned out beautifully and we couldn’t be happier with how it all looks in our home. The smart drapes are especially amazing! Highly recommend Nick and his team!
Jennifer Liu
Great experience with Sarasota Window Blinds. They were professional, easy to work with, and did a great job from start to finish. Everything turned out great and the quality of the work really shows. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking for window treatments.

Hurricane screen questions from Venice homeowners
Do hurricane screens really protect against Gulf storms?
Yes. Code-approved hurricane screens are tested against Florida wind-load and large-missile impact standards. They block wind-driven debris and rain from reaching the openings behind them.
Hurricane screens or impact glass — which do I need in Venice?
They solve different problems. Impact windows and doors protect individual openings; hurricane screens protect large spans like lanais and patios in one pass. Many Venice homes use both. We help you decide during the consultation.
Can I operate the screens remotely when I am up north?
Yes. Motorized screens can be tied to smart-home controls and, in some setups, operated or scheduled remotely — a popular option for Venice’s seasonal residents.
Will hurricane screens hold up to salt air?
When specified correctly, yes. Near the Gulf we use corrosion-resistant hardware, housings, and fasteners so the system keeps operating smoothly for years.
Is the in-home consultation really free?
Yes. A specialist comes to your Venice home, measures your lanai and openings, reviews screen and motor options, and leaves you with a clear written quote at no cost and no obligation.
