This is a real motorized screen project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated May 5, 2026. Total project cost: $10,969.
Estimate breakdown for a motorized screen project totaling $10,969 in Little Rock, AR: 3 units, including ~13×8 ft, prepared in May 2026.
Compared to the 5,406-project national dataset, this $10,969 estimate ranks above average — specifically the 59th percentile. The national median is $9,084 and the average is $12,101, so this project comes in 9% below the mean. Within AR specifically, the average across 128 comparable projects is $12,640 — making this estimate 13% below the local norm. That works out to roughly $29.57 per square foot of coverage.
Specifications include Bronze frame, Insect fabric, Motor control. Project scope (3 units) is larger than the typical 2.5-unit motorized screen project. Per-unit cost on this estimate is $3,656, below the $4,841 national per-unit average.
Arkansas's climate — humid summers and significant tornado-season activity — drives different screen system priorities than the national average. The local UV (moderate to high) pushes fabric selection toward solution-dyed acrylic or PVDF-coated mesh, and the wind exposure (moderate to high during storm season) pushes hardware specs toward heavier-gauge cassettes and motorized retraction.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.
At $10,969, this motorized screen project is 9% below the national average of $12,101 based on 5,406 comparable projects in our database. It ranks in the 59th percentile, meaning 59% of similar projects cost less. In AR, where we have data from 128 projects, this is 13% below the state average of $12,640. The effective cost is approximately $29.57 per square foot of coverage. This project includes 3 motorized screens, more than the average of 2.5 per project.
