Exterior Motorized Screens
Retractable motorized screens for shade, privacy, and insect protection.
Motorized screens disappear into a slim housing at the top of your porch or opening, then roll down on demand to give you shade, insect protection, privacy, or full weather protection. They're the most flexible of the shade-and-curtain family.
We install Phantom, Progressive, and equivalent commercial-grade systems with sun and wind sensors, remote control, and smart-home integration.

Questions we get about exterior motorized screens
How are motorized screens different from patio curtains?
- Screens roll up into a slim 4–6 inch housing when retracted — nearly invisible. Patio curtains use exposed straps or rollers. Screens are typically higher-spec (insect mesh, solar mesh, clear vinyl options) and more architectural. Curtains are typically fabric-forward and traditional.
Can motorized screens seal against insects?
- Yes — insect-rated mesh screens with tight side channels keep mosquitoes and flying insects out. Combined with a ceiling, screens turn an open porch into a usable outdoor room year-round.
