This is a real motorized screen project with actual pricing data from a professional installer. Estimated February 17, 2026. Total project cost: $3,782.
Acworth homeowners planning a motorized screen installation in the winter of 2026 can use this $3,782 estimate as a real-world reference. The scope: 2 units (~10×6 ft), Black frame, Insect fabric.
Pricing context: 7% of the 5,406 comparable motorized screen projects in our database cost less than $3,782, putting this estimate in "below average" territory. Versus the $12,101 national average, it's 69% below the norm. Within Georgia specifically, the average across 194 comparable projects is $13,738 — making this estimate 72% below the local norm. That works out to roughly $29.18 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 $1,891, below the $4,841 national per-unit average.
Worth knowing for Georgia: this is a humid subtropical climate, which means long hot summers, severe-storm activity, and coastal humidity along the Atlantic. A well-spec'd screen system for this region should account for the local wind exposure (moderate, higher on the coast) and UV load (high) — both of which influence the long-term cost-per-year of any installation.The Insect selection on this estimate is a reasonable match for humid subtropical conditions — solution-dyed acrylics handle Georgia's sun (high) better than vinyl, and shed humidity well. Motor controls are a sensible spec given the wind exposure here (moderate, higher on the coast) — retraction during severe weather is the single biggest predictor of long-term screen system life. Estimating in the winter of 2026 is typical for Georgia — most screen system installations book in the shoulder months, when installer availability is better and material lead times shorten to 3–6 weeks.
At $3,782, this motorized screen project is 69% below the national average of $12,101 based on 5,406 comparable projects in our database.
