Intelligent Motor and Control
All screen and shade products feature time-tested, dependable motors and controls manufactured by Somfy and Gaposa - The world leaders in tubular motor technology.
We’ve found that homeowners who purchase a motorized screen system are more satisfied with their purchase than those who don’t. Remote control technology makes using your screen convenient, and you will be less likely to experience damage (for example, leaving it down in bad weather, or rolling up the fabric the wrong direction.)
Heavy Gauge Aluminum Construction
Crafted with aluminum components you won’t have to worry about rusting or corrosion from the elements, ensuring years of trouble-free use.
Custom Designed for Your Home
Every power screen is built to order and custom tailored to fit your unique needs. Select from a wide variety of products and options to create your own unique design and shading system.
Reduces Heat & Glare From the Hot Afternoon Sun
Cool your home naturally and decrease your reliance on traditional air conditioning! Research has shown that in many homes, exterior shading systems can reduce cooling costs by up to 60%. Additionally, by filtering out the majority of the sun's rays, you'll enjoy less annoying glare on your computer and television screens.
Made in America
Power screens are engineered, designed, and assembled with pride in the USA. We control the manufacturing process and are able to rapidly respond to your sun protection needs.
Built-In Screen Cleaning System
The only system to use two brushes in the housing to clean the screen during operation. This helps prevent dirt, debris, and critters from entering your home or nesting in the housing.
Low Maintenance and Self Storing
Our motorized screens are easy to operate, low maintenance, and can be retracted back into inconspicuous housing for protected storage when not in use.

Sun & Rain Sensor
The Rain Sensor is a solar-powered combined rain and sun sensor that measures rainfall and senses brightness levels. The sensor operates even if the signal is lost.
The wireless and compact design makes it an easy addition to any screen and can create a comfortable space for you to enjoy anytime.
Solar Powered Motor
Forget the wires – a Somfy solar panel can be mounted on the screen’s housing which converts the sun’s energy into electrical power. The harnessed power is stored in a special Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) battery which powers your motorized screen. The result is a low maintenance and environmentally friendly alternative that saves you money!
Somfy MyLink
Never worry about losing the remote for your shade system - use a convenient app on your smartphone! The Somfy MyLink device allows you to operate your screen whether you're at home or away, or you can schedule a program so your screen lowers at an appointed time each day, cooling your home in time for you to arrive home.
