For this brand new home in
the Silverado Ranch Subdivision of Cedar Park
TX, we used the 80% Chocolate Solar Screen
Fabric with the Champagne frame of which was a
perfect color match to the window's champagne
frame. The chocolate fabric is the ideal
choice of fabric colors for a home like this.
The black fabric would have worked just fine,
but the chocolate is/was the ideal color.
As far as the frame color being champagne, it
was the perfect choice as well as the window's
frame is champagne. We could have used the
brown frame and it would have worked as well,
but the champagne frame was a homerun.
This customer ordered their solar screens before
they moved in to their new home. Being a
return customer of ours, they had solar screens
on their previous home therefore they new the
value of the solar screens and new with the
Summer in play how important it was to have them
up as soon as they could. Once you have
solar screens shading your home's windows, it's
hard to live through an Austin Texas Summer
without them. We all the time get calls
from customers that bought screens from us
before telling us they are moving into their new
home and want to make sure they get the solar
screens up on the windows of their new home as soon as they can. |
This installation called
for die cast clip mounting for all the windows.
None of the windows of this home had lip
provisions at the top or bottom of the windows
that allowed for a full size screen to pop-in
install. When that is the case, when the
window is not made to accommodate a full size
screen, we have to surface mount the solar
screen to the window's frames, and most the time
when doing so we use these die cast metal clips.
We ALWAYS use metal, we do not ever use ANY
plastic clips, or plastic period, as plastic
will over time degrade in our hot Texas heat.
For more information about our installation
methods please see our page titled
Videos of How We Install.

This is a picture of a
Solar Screen Sliding Door and a Solar Screen
Pocket Door. The Solar Screen Sliding Door
slides on the track that your current insect
screen sliding door slides on. We build a
new door, using our heavy duty framing that we
roll with your choice of solar screen fabric
(80% or 90% in your choice of color).
The Solar Screen Pocket Door is stationary, it
does not move. This pocket door is affixed
to the door's framing and provides shade for the
non-opening part of the door. Pricing and
clearer details for
Solar Screen Sliding Doors
and our
Solar Screen Pocket Door
can be found on our website. |
I am very pleased with the
solar screens and would highly recommend the
Hobbs to Install your solar screens. They were
very pleasant and easy to work with.
