This is a real motorized screen & screen extrusion project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated March 27, 2026. Total project cost: $20,179.
Peyton homeowners planning a motorized screen installation in the spring of 2026 can use this $20,179 estimate as a real-world reference. The scope: 8 units (~19×9 ft, ~16×9 ft), Bronze frame, Solar fabric.
Pricing context: 88% of the 5,188 comparable motorized screen projects in our database cost less than $20,179, putting this estimate in "premium" territory. Versus the $12,152 national average, it's 66% above the norm. Within Colorado specifically, the average across 353 comparable projects is $10,129 — making this estimate 99% above the local norm. That works out to roughly $46.11 per square foot of coverage.
Specifications include Bronze frame, Solar fabric, Nano 97 mesh, Motor control. Project scope (3 units) is larger than the typical 2.6-unit motorized screen project. Per-unit cost on this estimate is $6,726, higher than the $4,674 national per-unit average.
For context, Colorado homeowners installing a screen system are working with intense UV, large diurnal temperature swings, and chinook wind events. That shapes what specs actually matter: wind rating (high, particularly along the Front Range), UV-stable fabrics (very high at altitude), and corrosion-resistant hardware where salt-air or humidity is present.The Solar selection on this estimate is a reasonable match for high-altitude continental conditions — solution-dyed acrylics resist the very high at altitude typical of Colorado better than vinyl, and shed humidity well. Motor controls are a sensible spec given high, particularly along the Front Range in this region — retraction during severe weather is the single biggest predictor of long-term screen system life. Estimating in the spring of 2026 is typical for Colorado — most screen system installations book during peak season, when lead times stretch 6–10 weeks.
At $20,179, this motorized screen project is 66% above the national average of $12,152 based on 5,188 comparable projects in our database. It ranks in the 88th percentile, meaning 88% of similar projects cost less. In Colorado, where we have data from 353 projects, this is 99% above the state average of $10,129. The effective cost is approximately $46.11 per square foot of coverage. This project includes 3 motorized screens, more than the average of 2.6 per project.
