What Are Exterior Motorized Screens?
Exterior motorized screens are retractable shade systems mounted on the outside of your home, patio, lanai, or commercial space. They roll up and down at the push of a button, providing instant control over sunlight, heat, glare, privacy, and even insects.
Because they are installed on the exterior, they stop solar heat before it reaches your windows and doors — helping reduce cooling costs while protecting your furnishings, flooring, and artwork from UV damage.
Available in a range of fabric densities and openness factors, exterior motorized screens can be fine-tuned for your specific space — from lightly filtering the sun to creating a nearly opaque barrier for maximum privacy and shade.

How Exterior Motorized Screens Work
Our exterior motorized screens are mounted outside your home and roll up or down using a quiet tubular motor housed in a protective cassette or fascia. The screen fabric is tensioned to remain smooth and stable, even in light wind.
Fully Deployed: When fully extended, the screen blocks sun, glare, heat, and UV rays, and can provide privacy and insect protection for patios and lanais.
Partially Deployed: When partially lowered, the screen filters sunlight while preserving your view, giving you the perfect balance of shade and visibility.
Fully Retracted: When not in use, the screen rolls neatly into its housing, preserving your view and maintaining a clean, uncluttered exterior.
