What are patio screens?
Patio screens give an outdoor seating area more separation and shelter. The right model depends on how you use the patio, the direction of the wind and the view you want to keep. STERK discusses materials, height and placement, with attention to access and a neat fit with the outdoor space.
Patio screen maintenance and lifespan
Clean the material and profiles in line with the instructions for the chosen screen. Keep the area around fixings and any moving parts clear of dirt. Have damage or looseness assessed, and after changing the patio layout check that the screen can still be used safely and appropriately.
Patio screen warranty and service
STERK discusses the warranty terms for the chosen windbreak screen and agreed installation in advance. You have a personal point of contact for questions about use, adjustment or service. Keep the quote and product details so the arrangements for your model are easy to find.
Frequently asked questions about patio screens
How does a patio screen protect my seating area?
A patio screen can help define the seating area and provide more shelter. How well it works depends on the material, height and position. STERK therefore considers how you use the patio and where the main issue is before selecting a model.
Is a patio screen also a windbreak screen?
The terms often overlap. With patio windbreak screens, the focus is on shelter from the wind. Pay particular attention to how the chosen system works, rather than just its name. This makes it clearer what the screen can do for your seating area.
How high should a patio screen be?
That depends on the shelter you want and the view you wish to retain. Positioning and structure also play a part. STERK discusses the height from your seating area and checks whether it suits the rest of the patio and the available fixings.
Can I keep the look light and transparent?
If that is what you want, glass windbreak screens are a logical option to explore. The material and height affect how open the patio feels. We discuss the balance between separation and visibility and consider how the profiles fit your outdoor space.
What determines the price of patio screens?
The total price depends on the number of screens, dimensions, material and installation method. The condition of the surface and site access also matter. STERK discusses the complete layout and makes clear what is included in the installation proposal.
Can patio screens be used at a hospitality venue?
For intensive patio use, there are additional practical considerations. Our patio screens for hospitality venues are designed around seating, walkways and everyday layout. STERK considers a suitable setup and how staff will operate the screens.
Can patio screens also be moved?
If you want to change the layout, explore mobile windbreak screens. The surface and stability must suit this option. We discuss how to move the screen and where it can stand safely when you use the patio differently.
Can I add more screens later?
That depends on the selected system, available space and fixings. Discuss any possible expansion as part of the initial setup. STERK can consider the requirement without promising in advance that every model can be expanded indefinitely or with arbitrary components.
