Motorized Screens in Scarborough
Motorized screens from Mirage Screen Systems descend at the push of a button to enclose covered patios and pergolas, creating comfortable outdoor living areas without sacrificing the view. Screen Express is an authorized Mirage dealer and installer serving Scarborough. Each system is custom-measured to your opening, fabricated, and installed by our team. Mirage motorized screens use Somfy motors, Phifer mesh in insect, solar, or privacy grades, Teflon-infused aluminum guide channels, and a retained edge system that seals all four perimeter edges. Systems handle openings up to 25 ft wide and 16 ft tall.
Scarborough's Highland Creek valley, Guildwood ravine properties, and wooded lots near East Rouge and West Rouge create insect-active environments that make summer outdoor living uncomfortable without protection. Highland Creek, Morningside, and Malvern homes with covered rear decks and pergola structures adjacent to the valley systems experience mosquito and biting insect pressure from late May through August. Motorized screens with a full perimeter seal make these covered spaces genuinely usable through the summer. Bluffs-area properties in Guildwood and Scarborough Village also benefit from solar mesh that reduces afternoon glare from the lake-reflecting western sky.

Top Services for Scarborough Homeowners
Recent Work in Scarborough
Full Bungalow Screen Replacement: Bendale
· 2025Problem
A 1963-built brick bungalow in Bendale had 10 original aluminum-framed window screens, all different sizes, all bent at the corners, and three held in with foam weatherstrip. The homeowner had tried ordering standard replacement screens twice without finding a match.
Solution
Measured all 10 openings on-site and fabricated new aluminum frames with heavy-duty fibreglass mesh in a single visit. All screens seated flush with no improvised fastening. Added pet-resistant mesh on the two patio-level windows at the owner's request after seeing the material options.
Fine Mesh Patio Door and Window Upgrade: Highland Creek
· 2024Problem
A detached home in Highland Creek backing onto a treed lot adjacent to the Highland Creek ravine had standard 18×16 screens on all windows and the patio door. The homeowners reported mosquitoes and small insects entering through the screens consistently on summer evenings from late May through August.
Solution
Replaced mesh on all ground-floor windows (7 units) and the sliding patio door with 20×20 fine mesh in charcoal. Existing aluminum frames were re-used. The homeowners confirmed the evening insect problem was fully resolved.
