This is a real motorized screen project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated January 3, 2023. Total project cost: $6,042.
This anonymized motorized screen estimate from January 2023 is associated with Vestavia Hills, AL. It totals $6,042 across 2 units measuring ~15×10 ft. The record does not document a customer review or completed-project outcome.
Specifications include Bronze frame, Insect fabric, Motor control. Project scope (2 units) is smaller than the typical 2.5-unit motorized screen project. Per-unit cost on this estimate is $3,021, below the $4,824 national per-unit average.
Compared to the 5,514-project national dataset, this $6,042 estimate ranks below average — specifically the 29th percentile. The national median is $9,077 and the average is $12,060, so this project comes in 50% below the mean. Within the AL dataset, the average across 129 comparable projects is $11,086 — making this estimate 45% below the statewide benchmark. That works out to roughly $35.35 per square foot of coverage.
This editorial context comes from broad state climate guidance, not from the customer or estimate record. Alabama is categorized here as a humid subtropical climate (long humid summers, frequent severe-storm activity, and Gulf hurricane exposure on the coast). For general screen system planning, independently verify product ratings for the regional wind exposure (high on the coast, moderate inland), UV load (high), mounting surface, and local code requirements.
At $6,042, this motorized screen project is 50% below the national average of $12,060 based on 5,514 comparable projects in our database. It ranks in the 29th percentile, meaning 29% of similar projects cost less. In AL, where we have data from 129 projects, this is 45% below the state average of $11,086. The effective cost is approximately $35.35 per square foot of coverage. This project includes 2 motorized screens, fewer than the average of 2.5 per project.
