Mr. Dan White first started his solar screen and shade business from his garage in 1979. His friendliness and earnest attitude quickly brought him many appreciative and repeating customers. Within just six months, he was able to build his first shop and office. The first building, a small office and shop space, was built at its current location near Ben White Blvd in Southwest Austin.
Over the years, the shop expanded to multiple storage, manufacturing, and office facilities. Doug, son of Mr. Dan White, started helping out his father's business when he was still in high school. Upon graduation from high school, Doug joined his father's company as a full time employee. His first job was to oversee the screen manufacturing process.

We also manufacture, repair, and install solar screens, screen & patio doors, customized screens in patio covers, and much more.
We use Phifer solar screen materials, one of the best made in the industry, as our main product line. Our solar screen products, made from long-lasting Phifer wire, are specially designed for maximum heat and sunlight blockage as well as durability. Phifer solar screens can effectively block 60%-90% of heat producing sun rays while providing excellent visibility from inside the house.
If you are looking for ways to beat the heat and reduce your summer cooling costs, as well as reducing your winter heating costs, consider the replacement of your window screens with high quality solar screens on the exterior of your home. As opposed to window film or tint, window screens and solar screens are installed on the outside of your home.

I highly recommend Dan White's Screening. Our screen porch is beautiful and everyone who sees it remarks about the quality. This company stands above the rest in both service and quality! They are professional and responsive, as well as excellent craftsmen. They work together as a team and made sure all the work was completed to their high standards before considering the job complete. With some contractors they do a less than adequate job in hopes that you will not complain or know the difference. With this company they care about the quality and want you to be completely satisfied. Five stars

We've wanted to get screen enclosures for a while and started looking into various companies and options.
