Phantom retractable screens at the Kuppersmith Project

Located in Mobile, AL, the Kuppersmith Home is a blend of the 1920s charm and modern day luxuries and amenities. Far from just a renovation, the main goal of this renovation project was to create a modern, low-maintenance home that incorporates practical green principles, maintains the original architecture and meets the needs and demands of today’s homeowners. The Lipford Construction design team chose Phantom’s motorized Executive Screens to provide protection from solar heat and insects while maintaining the views. The tracks and housings of the screens are recessed into the porch columns, allowing the screens to be fully retracted out of sight when not in use. The selected mesh type — Sheerweave 2360 — in charcoal finish helps to block the UV rays from entering the screened space, thereby maintaining a cooler temperature within the porch when the screens are lowered.
