Transform Your Outdoor Spaces with Motorized Exterior Screens

Boutique Shutters & Shades builds custom motorized exterior screens that turn patios, lanais, pergolas, and screened porches into comfortable, usable rooms all year. Every screen is made to your exact opening, finish, and operation, so it disappears into the architecture when raised and provides UV protection, glare reduction, and heat control when lowered — all while keeping your view of the outdoors.

Choose smooth manual operation or motorized systems with remote control, wall switches, and smart-home automation. Whether you're hosting guests, relaxing with a book, or shading the afternoon sun, you can fine-tune the light, privacy, and airflow of your space in seconds.

Three Jobs, One Screen

Insects Out. Sun Down. Privacy Up.

One motorized screen does the work of several products — then disappears when you don't need it.

  • Keep insects out

    Durable vinyl- and polyester-coated mesh keeps mosquitoes and bugs outside, so you can throw the doors open and enjoy the breeze.

  • Shield from the sun

    Block harsh UV, glare, and heat while keeping your view clear — your patio stays cooler and your furniture and floors stay protected.

  • Enhance privacy

    Add privacy from neighbors and the street while keeping airflow and visibility from the inside — comfort without closing yourself in.

Smart & Built to Last

Effortless Comfort, Engineered for Every Season

Motorize your screens and control them however you like — multi-channel handheld remotes, a Dooya keychain remote, or low-profile wall switches. Add sun and wind sensors and your screens lower to block the afternoon glare, then retract automatically when winds pick up, protecting your investment without you lifting a finger.

Bring it all into your smart home with the Bond Bridge, so you can operate screens by app or voice through Alexa and Google Assistant, and group them into scenes. Underneath the convenience is serious build quality: reinforced hems, heavy-duty hardware, and corrosion-resistant components, with severe-weather screen options engineered to stand up to wind, rain, and intense sun.

From everyday shade to storm-rated protection, there's a screen built for the way you use your space. We'll help you choose the right style for each opening.

    Traditional

    Our most popular style — a clean, versatile screen that mounts to most patios, porches, and openings for everyday shade and bug protection.

  • recessed motorized screens with hidden track
    Recessed

    The track and hood tuck into the structure for a built-in look — ideal for new construction and seamless, hidden installations.

  • clear vinyl motorized screens enclosing a patio

    Clear vinyl panels block wind and rain while keeping your view, turning a porch into a comfortable three-season room.

  • severe-weather motorized screen built for high winds
    Severe Weather

    Heavy-duty screens engineered for high winds and storm-prone areas, adding an extra layer of protection to your outdoor space.

Fabric Options

Choose the Right Fabric for Your Space

Every screen is finished in the fabric that fits your goals — shade, bug protection, or full weather enclosure — in a wide range of colors.

  • Solar

    Knitted solar mesh cuts UV, glare, and heat while preserving your outdoor view and daytime privacy — perfect for sunny patios and lanais.

  • Insect

    Fine insect mesh keeps bugs out and breezes in, turning a porch or patio into a comfortable, screened retreat.

  • Vinyl

    Clear vinyl blocks wind, rain, and cold, so you can enjoy your outdoor space comfortably through more of the year.

Engineered in Every Detail

Built From Premium Components

From the fabric to the motor to the housing, every part is chosen for durability, quiet operation, and a finished look that lasts.

  • Premium fabrics

    Solar, insect, and privacy fabrics from Phifer® and Twitchell® that resist mold, mildew, and bacteria — so they look great and hold up season after season.

  • Quiet, reliable motors

    Dooya and Somfy® motors — global leaders in home automation — run smoothly and quietly, with a rechargeable solar-battery option for lighter screens.

  • Three track systems

    A traditional track for retrofits, a recessed track for built-in installs, and a patented self-adjusting track for vinyl, commercial, and high-wind sites.

  • Protective cassette housing

    Powder-coated, anti-corrosion housing shields the fabric from the weather. Available in white, black, beige, bronze, and ivory — plus custom colors.

  • HD bottom bars & seals

    Brush or rubber seals keep debris out, and the HD 2.5 bottom bar is 2.5× heavier with 68% less horizontal deflection than a standard bar.

  • Smart-home control

    Operate screens with a wireless remote or your voice through Alexa and Google Assistant, and fold them into scenes and schedules.

FAQs

Exterior Motorized Screen FAQs

What is a motorized exterior screen?

It's a retractable screen mounted to an outdoor opening that raises and lowers on a motor. Lower it for shade, privacy, bug protection, or to enclose the space; raise it and it tucks away so your view and architecture stay unobstructed.

Can I get manual screens, or are they all motorized?

Both. Manual screens operate smoothly by hand, while motorized screens add handheld remotes, wall switches, sun & wind sensors, and smart-home control for hands-free convenience.

How do the sun and wind sensors work?

A sun sensor lowers your screens automatically to block harsh glare and heat, and a wind sensor retracts them when winds pick up — protecting the screens and your investment without any effort on your part.

Can I control the screens with my smart home?

Yes. With the Bond Bridge you can operate your screens by app or by voice through Alexa and Google Assistant, and group them into scenes and schedules alongside the rest of your smart home.

What fabrics and colors are available?

We offer solar, insect, and vinyl fabrics in a wide range of colors, including custom options. We'll help you match the fabric to your goals — reducing sun and glare, keeping bugs out, or enclosing the space against the weather.

Will they hold up to the weather?

They're built with durable, corrosion-resistant components, and severe-weather screen styles are engineered for high winds and storm-prone areas. Optional wind sensors add another layer of protection.

Are the screens custom-sized?

Every screen is built to your exact opening, and many curved or specialty openings can be accommodated. We measure precisely so each screen fits and operates perfectly.

What about installation and warranty?

Your screens are professionally measured and installed by our local team and backed by a lifetime warranty. We handle the entire process — from your free in-home consultation to the final install.
