Atlanta Motorized Screens is an authorized MagnaTrack™ dealer installing motorized retractable patio screens and porch screens across Buckhead, from the estates of Tuxedo Park, West Paces Ferry and Mt. Paran to the homes around Chastain Park, the bungalows of Garden Hills and Peachtree Hills, and the townhomes and rooftops along Peachtree Road. Buckhead porches were built to be lived on. The problem is how few evenings a year they actually get used:
A motorized retractable screen fixes all five, and when the evening is perfect, it disappears into its housing at the touch of a button. Every project is measured in person and quoted line by line.
Three kinds of Buckhead porch, and what each one calls for.
The homes of Tuxedo Park and South Tuxedo Park, West Paces Ferry and Northside, Mt. Paran, Paces, Randall Mill, Argonne Forest, Arden and Habersham, and the wooded lots along Whitewater Creek were built with serious covered outdoor rooms: loggias, pool pavilions, outdoor kitchens, fireplaces, and furniture that costs more than most porches. Many are on architectural registers or in communities with review boards, so nothing can look added on.
The houses around Chastain Park, and the 1920s to 1950s neighborhoods of Garden Hills, Peachtree Hills, Peachtree Heights, Haynes Manor, Brookwood Hills, Collier Hills, Memorial Park, Ridgedale Park, Wesley Battle, and North Buckhead sit under the oldest tree canopy in Atlanta. Screened porches and covered back patios are original to many of them, and the pollen and mosquitoes are too.
The townhomes, cluster homes, and condos of Buckhead Village, Buckhead Forest, Peachtree Park, Westover Plantation, Cross Creek, and the Lenox and Phipps corridor have the best restaurants in the city out the front door and a neighbor twelve feet away out the back. Patios here are smaller, closer, and often face west into the evening sun.
Any covered opening up to 30 feet wide and 20 feet tall, on the house or off it.
The classic Buckhead back porch, screened for pollen and mosquitoes and open again the moment the weather turns nice.
Solar mesh over the grill and dining area for glare control and shade, without walling off the garden.
Privacy mesh on the lot-line side, insect mesh toward the water. The pool house becomes a second living room.
Motorized pergola screens turn an open frame into a usable room. Tracks mount to the posts; the housing tucks under the beam.
Door up, screen down. Airflow without an audience.
Buckhead Village, West Paces, and Roswell Road patios that stay open through mosquito season and the first cold snap.
Under the Buckhead canopy, screens down through March and April keep most of the yellow film off the furniture. Hose the mesh, not the cushions.
Insect mesh for the bugs, solar mesh for the sun. Either way, dinner on the porch in August without the spray and without the glare.
Press a button and the screens retract completely. Nothing between you and October.
Clear vinyl seals the space and holds the heat from a patio heater or fireplace. The porch stays in service through January.

Yes. MagnaTrack's magnetic track is designed to flex under a gust and pull itself back into place instead of tearing out, which is the usual failure on zipper-track screens. The manufacturer recommends raising standard screens above 60 mph; the Defender series is rated for 24/7 deployment in Category 5 winds. Solar mesh blocks up to 85% of wind and rain when extended. More on the MagnaTrack system page.
We can't speak for any individual association, but the system is built for architectural review: housings and tracks are powder-coated in any RAL color to match your trim, the profile is slim, and the screens disappear completely when retracted. We provide product drawings and color specs you can submit with your application.
Both. Most of Buckhead's housing stock is established, and face-mount tracks retrofit onto nearly any existing covered porch, patio, or pergola. On older homes we face-mount to the existing columns and beam so original trim stays untouched. On a new build or a major renovation, the housing and tracks can be recessed into the ceiling and columns so nothing is visible when the screens are up. Worth raising with your builder early.
Every project is custom fabricated to your openings, so pricing depends on the number of openings, their size, the mesh you choose, and the controls. We measure in person, walk through the options with samples, and leave an itemized quote that includes materials and installation. The quote is free, with no deposit and no obligation.
About six weeks from order to shipment, since each screen is built to your exact measurements. Most projects install in a single day once the screens arrive. We give you a real date when we quote.
