Sunspace of the Jersey Shore

Why Jersey Shore Homeowners Add Motorized Retractable Screens

Outdoor Space Feels Better When It's Protected From the Elements

An open patio or porch can go from unusable to comfortable the moment sun, wind, or insects are under control. Sunspace motorized retractable screens are built to solve exactly that, without permanently closing in the space.

Because the screens retract fully out of view when not in use, homeowners get climate protection on demand and an open-air feel the rest of the time. That flexibility is what makes this system useful for patios, decks, porches, and outdoor kitchens in Jersey Shore.

Reduce Heat and Glare

The screen fabric reflects up to 90% of solar radiation and can lower outdoor temperatures by as much as 11°C, keeping the space usable on hot afternoons.

Block UV Exposure

Motorized screens filter up to 90% of UV rays, helping protect furniture and flooring from fading while keeping the area more comfortable to sit in.

Keep Insects and Wind Out

The system blocks wind, rain, and insects when extended, so the space stays functional even when weather conditions change.

Preserve the View

Screens retract fully out of sight on a guided track system, so the space looks open and unobstructed when they’re not needed.

Motorized Retractable Screen System

One Screen System, Multiple
Comfort Goals

Instead of forcing every project into the same fabric and control setup, we match
the system to what the space actually needs most: heat reduction, privacy,
pet resistance, or wind control.

Sunspace Motorized Retractable Screen System

Sunspace motorized retractable screens are built with durable aluminum and stainless steel components and are available in five aluminum frame colors to coordinate with the rest of your home. Screens are sized from 24 inches up to 276 inches wide and 168 inches tall, so the system can be tailored to almost any opening.

  • Climate control on demand: Reflects up to 90% of solar radiation and filters up to 90% of UV rays, reducing heat and glare when extended.
  • Effortless operation: Available in manual or motorized versions, with smooth retraction on a guided track system.
  • Smart home compatible: Motorized screens can be controlled by handheld remote, wall switch, smartphone app, or voice assistants like Amazon Alexa and Google Home.
  • Built to last: Tear-resistant screen fabric and rust-proof aluminum and stainless steel construction are backed by a manufacturer warranty.
  • Multiple fabric choices: TuffScreen, SunTex, Sheerweave, and Soltis 502 fabrics are available depending on your priority for durability, privacy, or wind control.
  • Custom-fit design: Works well on patios, decks, porches, and outdoor kitchens where opening size and layout vary.

NATURAL UPGRADE PATH

WHERE MOTORIZED SCREENS FIT IN A BIGGER PROJECT

Motorized screens often start as a comfort upgrade around an existing patio or deck. From there, some homeowners add railings for a finished edge, or build from the platform up with deck installation when the base itself needs improvement.

SUNSPACE AUTHORITY

BUILT TO MATCH THE BRAND SYSTEM

Because Sunspace of the Jersey Shore is an authorized Sunspace dealer, motorized screen systems can be planned alongside sunrooms, windows, and other exterior systems so the final result feels cohesive instead of pieced together.

Available Frame Colors

FINISH OPTIONS THAT COORDINATE WITH THE REST OF THE SPACE
