Round Rock Pluckers Wings

Pluckers Wing Bar Enclosed Patio in Round Rock

The Pluckers Wing Bar in Round Rock, Texas has a great enclosed patio. Texans love to be outdoors, and many people will choose a restaurant with patio seating over one without. The screened walls provide an optimal view for outside “people watching”, or a space to enjoy a game on TV. There is no need to worry about mosquitoes while enjoying hot chicken wings and cold beers. The screened walls keep flying insects out while letting any breeze blow through the room. A shady roof helps to keep the patio cool in the Summer. The seating capacity for the restaurant has been increased with the enclosed patio, without increased expenses in parking or restroom facilities.

Round Rock, Texas

Just a short drive away from this restaurant, is the Dell Diamond Ballpark. The Dell Diamond has been the home of the Round Rock Express minor league baseball team since 2000. The stadium serves as a premier Central Texas destination and is constantly ranked among the top ballparks in Minor League Baseball.
Near the Dell Diamond Ballpark is Old Settlers Park. This large park is the City of Round Rock’s crown jewel of their park system. Old Settlers’ 645 acres provide space for many recreational activities such as disc golf, cricket, a 20-field baseball complex, a 5-field softball complex, soccer facilities, and more.

Vinyl Patio Enclosures Protect Your Electronics Investment

More and more casual dining restaurants install large screens on their patios, in their dining rooms, and in their lounges so that anyone can enjoy the game playing that day. When you’ve invested that much into your entertainment packages, it makes sense to protect it as much as possible.

Vinyl Patio Enclosures Keep Sports Fans—and Their Screens—Safe

matt's sports bar & grill exterior motorized patio sun shades

Sports fans are dedicated, but they’re not always able to see their favorite game from home. With more and more loyal fans moving away from their home team’s local area, fans depend on restaurants and bars to show the games on large screens with custom sports packages. Restaurants are stepping up to the plate, realizing that plates of wings and lots of beverages are consumed during a game, and that keeping a sports fan happy is good for business.

But what about those TV screens? How do you keep them safe, especially on the open air patios that attract the college football crowd in the early fall because of the comfort of outdoor weather (and the ability to use those outdoor voices!)? That’s what our custom enclosed patio does! Our commercial vinyl patio enclosures can help you create an enclosed patio that prevents wind and rain from damaging your patio and its contents—including the screens that bring all of the business.

Vinyl Patio Enclosures Offer Options for Your Outdoor Space

When you chat with Southern Patio Enclosures about your restaurant’s unique outdoor space, we’ll walk you through a design process that ensures a custom fit using the most durable vinyl material available on the market. When we design your enclosed patio, we’ll give you the opportunity to choose roll-up patio panels or motorized sun screens which both offer the same level of protection against the elements, but which offer different levels of ease as you roll them up and down. You’ll also get the chance to customize the look of your vinyl patio enclosures, making sure that your enclosed patio looks like an organic extension of your restaurant with the colors and design that works best for you.

Whatever you decide, you’ll be able to not only keep your happy sports fans on your patio year round, but you’ll also be able to protect your electronics from the wind, rain, and inclement weather that might otherwise damage them.

Using Motorized Curtains to Create A Seating Area

When we visited HEB Central Market to talk with them about what they wanted from a set of motorized outdoor curtains, we came away with a few key ideas: durable and strong enough to handle some serious elements, customized entrances, and a design that created a year-round outdoor seating area and was easy to use. With our durable High Wind motorized outdoor curtains, customizable design process, and multiple automation options, we had no problem doing just that.

Cafe Blinds Create a Cafe Atmosphere

They don’t call them cafe blinds for nothing—a strategically designed combination of durable colored vinyl and RF-welded clear vinyl materials created an attractive set of motorized outdoor curtains that fit HEB Central Market’s brand identity and enclosed their outdoor seating area. HEB was able to decide where they wanted to use clear vinyl, to maximize the best views, and the colored vinyl, to create borders and window breaks. The cafe blinds are easy to use, securely fastened on both sides on a heavy duty track that keeps the enclosure secure even in wind gusts up to 65 mph. With four different automation options for these blinds, HEB was able to choose the option that best helped them keep it a relaxing area for both staff and customers.

Motorized Outdoor Curtains Are Customized To Your Space

One of the unique challenges of the HEB Central Market location in Southlake was that they needed a standalone set of double doors that would stay stable whether their patio enclosure was raised or lowered. It’s a unique task, but one we handled with our typical enthusiasm. Since we custom design every set of patio enclosures so that they perfectly fit the space in which they are installed, we did the same here. The double doors create an easy access point between the covered seating area and the open-air patio, allowing flow of traffic and connection. You’d never know by looking at it that the custom door wasn’t a part of the existing structure first! That’s how committed we are to making your entire motorized outdoor curtains package fit perfectly in your outdoor space.

We’ll chat with you about options, design choices, and what you need from your enclosures—for free!

Replacing Poorly Fitting Motorized Outdoor Curtains with Our Enclosures at Myrtle Beach

When we went to visit Dick’s Last Resort in beautiful North Myrtle Beach, SC, we could see why the outdoor eating area was such a draw for them and a favorite for customers. Overlooking a lake and spacious enough to fit large parties, the deck is a beautiful place to enjoy an afternoon or evening with friends. But with cafe blinds that don’t fit and don’t last, the patio stopped being the protected and welcoming place it once was.

Cafe Blinds that Fit Seamlessly

When we set out to design motorized outdoor curtains to protect an outdoor space from wind, rain, and the elements that can ruin a great patio experience, we want those cafe blinds to fit well. When we arrived at Dick’s, we saw what happens when the blinds don’t fit well. The existing patio enclosure they had on their deck were torn and floppy, hanging in a way that allowed drafts and dust to enter the patio. No one wants that! Our customized design allowed us to not only fix the gaps, but create a tight fit across the entire deck, including a double door entrance that matched the rest of the enclosure. That’s how you protect a deck!

Motorized Outdoor Curtains That Maintain The View

One of the benefits of our enclosures is that clients can customize the configuration of colored fabric and clear vinyl fabric to protect whatever the best view is. In Dick’s Last Resort’s case, that was the wide view of the lake and grasslands that surrounds the restaurant. With a large rectangle creating panoramic windows, our motorized outdoor curtains eliminated the cloudy vinyl that the patio had before, but also expanded the view. No more interruptions in the view—just large clear windows for everyone to enjoy.

Because we created a door with a clear vinyl window, not only is the view maintained and safety is ensured, but the door fits seamlessly with the rest of the cafe blinds.

Finding the Perfect Fit for Cristina’s Fine Mex Motorized Outdoor Curtains

custom patio enclosures with clear vinyl door Cristina’s Fine Mexican Restaurant

When we were asked to customize a set of motorized outdoor curtains for this space, we knew we wanted to maintain the personality of the outdoor space while working to address each one of the challenges that Cristina’s was facing. Home to Texas for more than 25 years, Cristina’s is a family restaurant chain with a specific way of doing things—and we wanted to make sure to maintain the rich history and comfortable feel of their brand, even down to the color scheme. Because of our unique system of personalization, durable product, and commitment to our customers, we were able to create a protected, comfortable space that immediately expanded the seating space for Cristina’s Fine Mex.

One of the charms of the patio of Cristina’s Fine Mex are the rich, wooden accents. Thick beams line the perimeter and make up the bulk of the roof structure. It feels rustic, with a stone floor and a soaring sense of space that makes you feel like you have stepped into a large pavilion that fits more on a ranch than in a shopping center. Because our café blinds are built entirely to order, to suit the measurements of the space, we were able to tackle some fairly complex problems.

Unique Installation: Because of the stone ledge around the outdoor patio, our high wind motorized outdoor curtains needed to be installed with a tight fit that no pre-fab café blinds would be able to achieve. We designed and installed a set of motorized outdoor curtains that worked around not only that stone ledge, but wooded beams and a set of stone stairs.

Access Point: Because Cristina’s has a two-level patio seating areas, the covered patio area needed a door with a clear window pane that led to the uncovered patio area. This door, which has its own motorized system, allows waitstaff and customers to access both areas of the patio easily, and also offers another exit for safety purposes. It also seamless integrates with the rest of the cafe blinds!

Café Blinds Maximize Brand Recognition

Cristina’s Fine Mex has been a popular Texas eatery for more than twenty years, and now has expanded to twelve locations. With that kind of reputation and history, the brand has real weight. The colors, for example, of Cristina’s are deep red and gold, and we wanted to match that in the motorized outdoor curtains that we installed. We also wanted to keep the open, spacious feel of their beautiful patio space. To do that, we customized their café blinds with both bright red accents in solid opaque fabric while maintaining the beautiful views and open spaces with clear vinyl fabric. Both of the fabrics that make up these high wind motorized outdoor curtains are rated to withstand winds of up to 65 mph and are the easiest café blinds to use. The motorized outdoor curtains run on metal tracks (in this case, black metal to match the wrought iron décor used throughout the restaurant) and are raised and lowered with the touch of a button.

Pizza Place Patio Made Over With Motorized Outdoor Curtains

One of the concerns at this location was easy access, so we included a door in the design.When a Yelp photo of your patio has the caption “too cold, so no one sits out here,” something needs to change. St. Philip Pizza Parlor + Bakeshop, a popular Austin eatery that combined pizza and baked goods for the ultimate complete casual dining experience, saw the problem and called us to help. Our motorized outdoor curtains, or cafe blinds, can not only protect your outdoor space from rain and wind but also can substantially change the temperature on a chilly space. Remember that Yelp review? Cafe blinds can change it all–and we can help. For St. Philip, we needed to create a plan that kept the unique look that set St. Philip apart, while still providing a protected space for diners and staff alike.

Motorized Outdoor Curtains Adapt to Your Space

One of the things we wanted to make sure we achieved at St. Philip was to keep the character of the unique patio. With its vaulted ceilings and wooden accents, it was not a standard outdoor space to work with, but that is one of the benefits of our cafe blinds. Because we custom design our products to meet your unique needs. St. Philip had a cross between industrial and rustic design, with an outdoor pavilion that featured soaring open ceilings cross-hatched with planks and topped with corrugated metal roofing. Where would motorized outdoor curtains fit without overwhelming the space?

Our Cafe Blinds Fit Into The Design Plan

We suggested clear patio enclosures, to maximize the view of the garden full of native plants and rocks. The unique view was as important for us to protect as the design, so we helped St. Philip customize a design that was as subtle as possible so that it would stay out of the way of both the design and the view. One particular challenge was creating an exit door in the enclosure, but we achieved that by creating a standalone exit on the side of the patio that stays put whether the motorized outdoor curtains are up or down. From an entirely open, chilly pavilion to a warm, welcoming, and entirely protected patio space, our cafe blinds helped St. Philip increase their usable seating area no matter the weather without sacrificing their design vision or customer experience.

If you’re looking for a way to do the same, to make your outdoor space more comfortable for customers and clients while keeping the personality of your business intact, let us help! Fill out our contact form and we will arrange a time to give you a free customized quote.

Cafe Blinds from Southern Patio Enclosures are your key to keeping your business comfortable all year long.

They may seem like just some vinyl curtains, but your cafe blinds have a great deal of power and understanding that can help you use them respectfully. Each panel of your outdoor blinds is approximately 100 square feet. Combine that size with a swift 35 mph gut, and you have a 1000 pound force that shouldn’t be taken lightly. Because of this, it’s important to set good habits when using your cafe blinds.

Every time you are finished with your outdoor blinds, whether that means it’s the end of the day or your event has been successfully completed, roll them up. It may seem like an unnecessary extra step, but retracting your cafe blinds will keep them protected from unexpected wind gusts. Keeping them retracted often also helps to keep the attachments and tie downs in good condition by eliminating extra stress on those connections.

Observe Safety Precautions When Using Your Blinds

When winds do come or are forecasted, it’s important for you to ensure safety first. In the event of a storm, evacuate the area and worry about retracting your cafe blinds when the situation is safe. This is especially true with storms that pop up quickly, like tornados or severe thunderstorms. While you want to protect and preserve your blinds, the most important concern should be your safety and the safety of your customers and staff. If you can prevent the blinds from being down when winds descend, please do. Get into the habit of paying attention to the weather, adjusting your use of your patio enclosures as needed.
