This is a real motorized screen project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated March 24, 2026. Total project cost: $7,992.
Little Rock homeowners planning a motorized screen installation in the spring of 2026 can use this $7,992 estimate as a real-world reference. The scope: 2 units (~19×10 ft, ~11×10 ft), Black frame, Insect fabric.
Pricing context: 40% of the 5,359 comparable motorized screen projects in our database cost less than $7,992, putting this estimate in "below average" territory. Versus the $12,114 national average, it's 34% below the norm. Within AR specifically, the average across 128 comparable projects is $12,640 — making this estimate 37% below the local norm. That works out to roughly $25.97 per square foot of coverage.
Specifications include Black 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 $3,996, below the $4,845 national per-unit average.
For context, Arkansas homeowners installing a screen system are working with humid summers and significant tornado-season activity. That shapes what specs actually matter: wind rating (moderate to high during storm season), UV-stable fabrics (moderate to high), and corrosion-resistant hardware where salt-air or humidity is present.The Insect selection on this estimate is a reasonable match for humid subtropical / continental conditions — solution-dyed acrylics handle Arkansas's sun (moderate to high) better than vinyl, and shed humidity well. Motor controls are a sensible spec given the wind exposure here (moderate to high during storm season) — retraction during severe weather is the single biggest predictor of long-term screen system life. Estimating in the spring of 2026 is typical for Arkansas — most screen system installations book during peak season, when lead times stretch 6–10 weeks.
