Project Spotlight:

Recessed Defender Hurricane Screens in Friendswood, Tx

Quick Facts

  • Location: Friendswood, TX

  • Screens: MagnaTrack Defender hurricane screens

  • Openings: 3, with the largest at 27' × 12'

  • Install: Recessed, with tracks hidden in stone and the screens housed in custom pockets

  • Outdoor living build: Backyard Retreats

The Challenge

These Friendswood homeowners were in the middle of a complete backyard transformation: a new pool and deck, a full outdoor kitchen, and an entertainment space with TVs and lounge seating. With that much invested in the space, they wanted real hurricane protection, but they didn’t want bulky hardware taking away from the design they had planned.

The Solution

We chose MagnaTrack Defender hurricane screens and built them into the structure itself, so there would be nothing for the eye to snag on. We coordinated with Backyard Retreat, the company building the outdoor living space, and installed the tracks early in construction, before they were wrapped in stone. Once the stonework was finished, we came back and installed the screens. Then we built custom pockets around them, so each screen retracts out of sight into what looks like part of the architecture, blending into the wood face. Three openings are covered, including one that spans 27' × 12'.

The Result

The finished space looks like nothing was added at all. With the screens up, it’s an open-air outdoor living room built for entertaining. With them down, it’s protected by a system rated for Category 5 winds over 156 mph. It’s a backyard where no expense was spared, and the hurricane protection is as invisible as it is strong.

Homeowner Review

“Absolutely very dependable, did an awesome job on our custom MagnaTrack screens for our back outdoor addition as well as our electric interior shades. Travis and Ashley are awesome, very knowledgeable and very high-quality... highly recommend. They are definitely my go-to when it comes to any kind of window coverings.”

Featured MagnaTrack Projects Across Greater Houston

Every project here started with a homeowner who wanted more from their outdoor space: fewer mosquitoes, less afternoon sun, or real protection when storms roll in off the Gulf. From pool decks in The Woodlands to coastal homes near Galveston, we’ve measured, installed, and serviced MagnaTrack systems built for the way Texas families actually live outside. Browse our insect, solar, and Defender hurricane screen projects below to see how each one turns a patio into a space you’ll use all year.

Window Treatments Designed for Your Greater Houston Home

Greater Houston is one big, diverse place to call home. Our roots are in Spring, The Woodlands, Tomball, Magnolia, Cypress, Conroe, and Montgomery, but we bring the showroom to homes up to two hours away, from Katy, Cinco Ranch, and Sugar Land in the west to Kingwood and Baytown in the east, and south through Friendswood and League City all the way to Galveston. Some homes are established, some are brand-new builds, and many look out on the bay. They all deal with the same Texas sun that warms rooms, fades floors, and puts glare on every screen. We design window treatments that handle that light beautifully.

Think solar shades that soften the afternoon sun in a Cinco Ranch living room, plantation shutters that give a Sugar Land home a classic, architectural look, and MagnaTrack hurricane screens that protect a Galveston or League City patio from Gulf storms. Every project starts with a free in-home consultation, where we measure each window, bring samples into your actual light, and design around how your family uses each room. Framed View Designs is a local company, not a franchise, and we’re proud to serve homeowners across the Houston area.

Motorized Shades for Greater Houston Homes

From Katy to Kingwood, motorized treatments quickly become the ones busy Houston-area families actually use every day.

  • Every interior shade we motorize runs on a Somfy motor, and you choose how it’s powered.

  • Wire-free rechargeable motors need no new wiring and recharge with a simple charger or an optional solar pack, which makes them an easy upgrade for an established home in Sugar Land or Friendswood.

  • Hardwired Somfy motors (12V DC or 110–240V AC) run on continuous power with no batteries, a great fit for new construction in Cinco Ranch, remodels, and oversized windows.

  • Outdoors, our exterior screens use Gaposa motors with built-in obstacle detection.

  • Every motor is backed by a 5-year warranty.

  • A Bond Bridge Pro hub ties it all together with Alexa, Google Home, Apple HomeKit, SmartThings, and whole-home systems like Control4, Crestron, and Savant.

  • Set your shades to open with your morning coffee and lower on their own before the afternoon sun hits, whether you’re in Spring or out on the bay in League City.

Backyards from The Woodlands to Galveston are made for pools, patios, and time outside, but mosquitoes, afternoon heat, and Gulf Coast storms often cut the season short. MagnaTrack motorized retractable screens block the bugs and the sun, so your outdoor space stays usable all year.

  • Rare-earth neodymium magnets hold the screen in tension. When wind pushes on it, the screen flexes, and the magnets pull it back into place.

  • A Dyneema interlock (no keder or zippers) keeps the edges secure, so the screen self-corrects instead of jamming.

  • The design eliminates 98% of the common service issues seen with fixed-track and zipper systems.

  • Screens come in insect, solar, vinyl, and hurricane options.

  • For coastal homes in Galveston, League City, Baytown, and Friendswood, the MagnaTrack Defender hurricane screen withstands Category 5 winds over 156 mph. It’s the only system of its kind tried and tested in real storms, holds Florida Product Approval FL30798, and covers openings up to 20' × 30'.

  • As a certified MagnaTrack dealer, we measure, install, and service every system, powered by Gaposa motors and controlled through Bond hubs.

Lower a solar or insect screen and your patio becomes a shaded, private outdoor room you’ll actually use, whether you’re in Cinco Ranch, Humble, or right on the coast.
