Here in North Georgia, we’re blessed with some of the most beautiful seasons in the
country. But let’s be honest—between the yellow pine pollen of spring, the heat and
mosquitoes of mid-summer, and those sudden chilly mountain breezes in late autumn,
enjoying your porch can sometimes feel like a game of tug-of-war with Mother Nature.
At Lanier Aluminum Products, we’re always looking for ways to help you reclaim your
outdoor spaces. That is why I consistently recommend the Eze-Breeze Vertical 4-Track
Sliding System to our clients in Gainesville and the surrounding areas.
If you love the idea of a sunroom but want to keep the fresh air and relaxed vibe of a
classic screened-in porch, this is the exact product you’ve been looking for.
What is a Vertical 4-Track System?
When people hear "4-track," they sometimes picture heavy, clunky sliding patio doors.
Eze-Breeze is the complete opposite.
The vertical 4-track system consists of four lightweight, custom-made panels that slide
effortlessly up and down on their own individual tracks. Think of them like incredibly
smooth, heavy-duty window sashes. Because they operate on four distinct tracks, they
nest neatly together.
? 75% Ventilation: You can slide three of the panels together (either stacked at the
top or at the bottom), instantly opening up 75% of your window area to let the
breeze in.
? 100% Airflow: On those perfect 72-degree days, you can easily pop the panels
completely out of their tracks in a matter of seconds, leaving you with a fully
screened porch and maximum airflow.
? Total Weather Barrier: When a summer thunderstorm rolls over Lake Lanier, or
the winter chill sets in, simply slide all four panels closed. Just like that, you have
a dry, draft-free three-season room.
Glass-Like Views Without the Glass-Like Headaches
One of the questions I get asked most often at Lanier Aluminum Products is, "Are these
panels made of glass?" The answer is no—and that’s actually their biggest selling point.
Eze-Breeze panels use a specialized 10-mil memory vinyl instead of heavy, tempered
glass.
The "Bounce-Back" Miracle: This vinyl is incredibly tough. If a stray dog jumps up, a
stray golf ball hits it, or a kid accidentally throws a baseball against it, the vinyl simply
flexes and bounces right back to its original shape. No shattered glass, no dangerous
cleanup, and no expensive repair bills.
Because we use lightweight vinyl, we can install floor-to-ceiling panels without needing
heavy, costly structural reinforcement. You get the crystal-clear view of glass, but with a
fraction of the weight and none of the worry.
Tailored to Your Home's Style
Every porch we enclose is unique, which is why we custom-measure and custom-build
every single Eze-Breeze system to fit your existing framing perfectly. We don't deal in
"one-size-fits-all" stock sizes.
You can truly make these units your own with a variety of design options:
? Frame Colors: Match your home's trim with rugged, powder-coated aluminum
frames available in White, Beige, Bronze, Pebble Khaki, or Black.
? Vinyl Glazing Tints: Keep it perfectly transparent with Clear, or opt for Bronze,
Smoke Gray, or Dark Gray tints to reduce solar heat gain and add a layer of
daytime privacy.
? UV Protection: No matter which tint you choose, these panels block 99% of
harmful UV rays, protecting your skin and preventing your patio furniture, rugs,
and outdoor cushions from fading in the harsh Georgia sun.
Easy to Use, Even Easier to Clean
Nobody wants to add more chores to their weekend list. Fortunately, Eze-Breeze
systems are engineered for low maintenance.
The panels slide smoothly with minimal effort, and when it comes time to clean them,
you won't need to climb a ladder on the outside of your deck. The vents are designed to
tilt inward, allowing you to wipe down both sides of the vinyl safely from inside the
comfort of your porch. A quick rinse with a mild soap and water, and your view is good
as new.
