We make the best motorized screens in the world
A History of Innovation
Our goal is not to just say we make the best motorized screens in the world. Our goal is to prove it every time a dealer installs or a customer uses one of our screens. To that end, the history of Fenetex is a story of innovation and firsts, because quite simply we wanted to be the best at what we do.
The most important skill we have is that we listen to the feedback from our dealers and customers. It gives us perspective and purpose. And, we have the creativity and experience to know what to do with this information.
Quality and Durability
When we design a screen system or a component, we do everything in 3D CAD. This allows us to test, optimize, and create complex working assemblies before we ever make an actual part.
Client Satisfaction
We believe in excellent communication, delivering high quality work, and building relationships.
We offer revolutionary retractable screens using our MagForce Track (patent pending) and patented Quiet Spring Technology at the core of our One-Track system

A revolutionary screen track system with powerful magnets.
MagForce (Patent Pending) disrupts the market for magnetic self-adjusting screens with its revolutionary longevity and strength. For over a decade, Fenetex has manufactured hurricane screens to meet the most demanding building code.
We’ve always used a fixed track for high wind applications, but we saw a need to create a self-adjusting track built for extreme wind loads. What we wanted was to have a hurricane screen that would be as wrinkle-free as possible because people use our screens for much more than just hurricanes.
Our engineers determined that magnets would be the best technology for this purpose, but Fenetex realized that improvements needed to be made to overcome the failures of other magnetic screens in the market.

Fenetex's Solutions for
Magnet Screens
Secure Inner Track
We devised a method to ensure that the inner track would remain firmly attached to the outer track, even under extreme loads.
Corrosion Protection
Developing a solution to protect the magnets from corrosion was crucial to enhance the durability and longevity of the screens.
Heavy-Duty Design
To enable the screens to function effectively in higher winds, we created a significantly heavy-weight bar to provide the necessary stability and strength.
FEATURES
Fenetex, as the first to employ Keder-edged screens, opted against zippers, known for potential issues. Keder's smooth, durable design avoids part failures. Interestingly, Fenetex's initial motorized screens from over a decade ago remain in use today.
Neodymium magnets, exceptionally strong yet prone to corrosion, were addressed by Fenetex engineers. They achieved this by hermetically sealing the magnets within an aluminum channel, protecting them from rust-inducing factors like salt air, humidity, and pool chlorine.
Fenetex is the only retractable screen that doesn’t come out of its tracks. Our screen pre-feeder gives the descending screen a smooth transition from the reel to the side track. It works with our smart motors to instantly stop the downward motion of the screen before the screen can come out of the tracks.
Our engineers addressed the primary wear issue on screens, which occurs at the corner where the weight bar and screen meet. To mitigate this, they designed a very strong yet fexible guide made of toughened nylon that ties these elements together and substantially reinforces the corner connection.
Not only is this weight bar robustly engineered, it is also the strongest and heaviest weight bar available in the industry, it has two cavities for steel weights and is meant to be used with screens that will be used in windy areas and is always used on hurricane rated screens.
MagForce's inner and outer tracks securely lock together under pressure. This has two benefits: 1. The inner track cannot be pulled free of the outer track; 2. The outer track cannot be forced open under load. MagForce is incredibly strong and self-adjusting so your screens will be as wrinkle free as possible.
The world’s first quiet self-adjusting screen system.
Fenetex introduced the patented quiet spring technology, the core of our One-Track system, nearly a decade ago
We’ve crafted the perfect self-adjusting screen system that operates beautifully silently when deployed, ensures frustration-free operation, and can be used in almost any weather condition.
While others have experimented with alternative methods to achieve the advantages of our One-Track screens, none have achieved the unique combination of near-silence, ease of operation, affordability, high reliability, and exceptional dependability.

FEATURES
Fenetex pioneered the use of keder-edged screens, avoiding zippers known for potential failures. Keder operates smoother in tracks with NO breakable parts. Remarkably, the first motorized screens created over a decade ago are still in use today.
One-Track employs a unique spring-based tensioning system that ensures nearly silent operation of the screens. This technology prioritizes a quiet and comfortable outdoor experience. Think of it like shock absorbers in a car - it’s the springs that give you a quiet comfortable ride.
Fenetex retractable screens are designed to never come out of their tracks. The screen pre-feeder facilitates a smooth transition from the reel to the side track. Smart motors instantly halt the downward motion of the screen, preventing it from dislodging from the tracks.
Recognizing that screen wear is most prominent at the corner where the weight bar and screen meet, Fenetex engineers designed a robust and flexible guide made of toughened nylon. This innovative design reinforces the corner connection, extending the screen's lifespan.
Fenetex offers a well-engineered, low-profile standard weight bar suitable for installations in low-wind areas. When rolled up, it minimizes visibility in storage. For locations with higher wind exposure, a heavier weight bar can be specified as needed.
Common Features
Fenetex hoods and reels seamlessly match any size track and screen type. Our system automatically selects the appropriate hood and reel based on your order’s dimensions and screen type. We exclusively utilize extruded aluminum hoods and reels, recognized as the superior materials.
Many companies make extruded hoods and reels, but none take things to the engineering degree that Fenetex does. Our aim is not just to create an “okay” or even a good screen system – we strive for nothing less than the best.
Fenetex’s screen housings are made from powder coated extruded aluminum to provide extreme strength and durability. Our housings are so tough they even pass the same large missile impact tests as our hurricane screens.
Powder coated aluminum is the right material for end caps. Specially designed flanges and screw bosses bring the end caps and housing together in a structurally sound assembly that supports the weight of the reel, weight bar, and screen.
Fenetex only uses extruded aluminum reels because we do not want to see rust stains form on our screens. Our reels are double-walled and made with stronger 6005A alloy for maximum rigidity. This allows for a flatter screen over competitor’s screens.
Everyone wants a flat, wrinkle-free screen. Fenetex’s screen compensators are all about achieving the best looking installed screen possible. Compensators allow the installer to ne tune how a screen rolls up. By making small adjustments to the compensator, wrinkles can be reduced and weight bars can be leveled.
Fenetex uses marine grade stainless steel fasteners. A great deal of what we manufacture goes to coastal locations where salt air and humidity are constant. We think of our screens in the same way and use the same materials that one would use if they were building a yacht.
Fenetex designed the anodized aluminum motor brackets to withstand the high torque from the motor and to fight the corrosion that occurs with dissimilar metals. Our motor brackets do not rust and will never cause visible rust streaks.
In Florida we have tree frogs and sometimes they like to crawl into the housing to make a home. The Frog Stoppers are opposing stiff brushes integrated with the housing that works to keeps frogs out. It also work to clean the screen and keep any flying bugs from getting around the screen.
Fenetex’s molded bracket serves as the bearing for the reel. This single piece design has no moving parts, no noisy bearings, and no parts to break. What you get is a lifetime of hassle-free and quiet screen operation.
