This is a real motorized screen project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated February 3, 2026. Total project cost: $16,579.
Estimate breakdown for a motorized screen project totaling $16,579 in Coopersville, Michigan: 4 units, including ~9×9 ft, prepared in February 2026.
Compared to the 5,363-project national dataset, this $16,579 estimate ranks premium — specifically the 81st percentile. The national median is $9,071 and the average is $12,110, so this project comes in 37% above the mean. Within Michigan specifically, the average across 26 comparable projects is $10,555 — making this estimate 57% above the local norm. That works out to roughly $47.23 per square foot of coverage.
Specifications include Black frame, Insect fabric, Motor control. Project scope (4 units) is larger than the typical 2.5-unit motorized screen project. Per-unit cost on this estimate is $4,145, below the $4,844 national per-unit average.
Worth knowing for Michigan: this is a Great Lakes continental climate, which means lake-effect humidity, cold winters, and a short but intense outdoor season. A well-spec'd screen system for this region should account for the local wind exposure (moderate to high near the lakes) and UV load (moderate) — both of which influence the long-term cost-per-year of any installation.The Insect selection on this estimate is a reasonable match for Great Lakes continental conditions — solution-dyed acrylics handle Michigan's sun (moderate) better than vinyl, and shed humidity well. Motor controls are a sensible spec given the wind exposure here (moderate to high near the lakes) — retraction during severe weather is the single biggest predictor of long-term screen system life. Estimating in the winter of 2026 is typical for Michigan — most screen system installations book in the shoulder months, when installer availability is better and material lead times shorten to 3–6 weeks.
At $16,579, this motorized screen project is 37% above the national average of $12,110 based on 5,363 comparable projects in our database.
