Case Study: Front Single Door Retractable Screen Installation in Oceanside, CA

Introduction

In the coastal city of Oceanside, CA, a homeowner wanted to enjoy the ocean breeze through their front door — without dealing with insects or a bulky traditional screen. They needed a solution that was clean, efficient, and practically invisible when not in use. That’s where our team came in.

This project involved installing a retractable screen on a single front entry door. The goal was to create airflow without sacrificing the clean appearance of the home’s front entryway.
