Advanced Motorized Hurricane Screen Systems Installed by West Shore Construction

MagnaTrack® hurricane screens are a premium motorized hurricane protection solution designed to secure large openings while maintaining airflow, visibility, and ease of use. Featuring a patented magnetic track system, MagnaTrack screens offer reliable storm protection with smoother operation and reduced wear compared to traditional zip-track systems.

West Shore Construction installs MagnaTrack hurricane screens for residential and commercial properties throughout Clearwater, Tampa Bay, and Florida’s West Central coastal communities.

What Makes MagnaTrack Hurricane Screens Different?

MagnaTrack hurricane screens use a patented magnetic retention system instead of traditional zippers or rigid tracks. This design allows the screen fabric to remain tensioned during high winds while automatically realigning if lateral pressure occurs.

The result is a motorized hurricane screen system that delivers:

• Consistent edge retention

• Reduced stress on the screen fabric

• Smoother operation during deployment and retraction

How the MagnaTrack System Works

The MagnaTrack system uses rare-earth magnets embedded in the side tracks to hold the screen fabric securely in place while allowing controlled movement under pressure.

Key system components include:

• Magnetic side tracks that maintain tension without zippers

• Self-correcting design that helps prevent fabric misalignment

• Weighted bottom bar for consistent vertical tension

• Motorized operation with wall switch, remote, or smart-home integration

This design helps improve reliability and long-term performance, especially in Florida’s demanding coastal environment.

Benefits of MagnaTrack Hurricane Screens

Hurricane & Storm Protection

MagnaTrack screens are engineered to help protect openings from wind-borne debris and pressure changes when properly installed and configured.

Smooth, Reliable Operation

By eliminating zippers, MagnaTrack systems reduce common wear points found in traditional screen designs.

Airflow & Visibility

Unlike solid shutters or panels, MagnaTrack screens allow airflow and outward visibility while still providing protection and shade.

Multi-Purpose Use

In addition to storm protection, MagnaTrack screens can be used year-round for:

• Sun and glare reduction

• Insect control

• Privacy screening

• Wind and light debris reduction

Low-Profile Design

When not in use, MagnaTrack screens retract neatly into a discreet housing, preserving the appearance of the structure.

Customization Options for Any Space

From patios and lanais to garages and gazebos, Magnatrack screens are tailored to fit any residential or commercial application. With a variety of stylish fabrics, colors, and vinyl options, you can customize your screens to complement your property’s aesthetic while adding functional value.

How Does the MagnaTrack System Work?

The MagnaTrack system sets itself apart from traditional systems with a self-correcting design that ensures consistent performance. Here’s why this patented system is a game-changer:

• Patented MagnaTrack™ Technology: Features rare-earth neodymium magnets for smooth, tensioned operation without the use of zippers, reducing maintenance issues.

• Self-Adjusting Sidetracks: Prevents fabric from billowing or loosening, even in high winds.

• Weighted Bottom Bar: Ensures the screen stays in place during use, offering added stability.

• Smart Control Options: Operate your screens with apps, smart speakers, or integrated smart-home systems for effortless convenience.

This innovative system boasts 98% fewer service calls than traditional fixed-track systems, thanks to its durable, low-maintenance design. Additionally, it comes with a limited lifetime warranty, ensuring long-term peace of mind.

Benefits of Installing Magnatrack Screens

Investing in Magnatrack screens is more than just an upgrade for hurricane protection—it’s a long-term improvement for your property. Here’s what makes these screens the best choice:
