Arizona homeowners know the struggle. You’ve invested in creating the perfect outdoor space, complete with beautiful furniture and entertaining areas, only to find yourself retreating indoors when the sun becomes unbearable or privacy becomes an issue. What if there was a way to reclaim your patio and truly enhance your outdoor living experience? Motorized Patio Screens
The solution lies in expanding and protecting your outdoor space with a Magnatrack® motorized patio screen. These innovative screens don’t just provide shade—they transform your patio into a year-round entertainment haven that perfectly blends comfort, functionality, and style.
Our recent project in North Scottsdale demonstrates exactly how powerful this transformation can be, turning a beautiful but underutilized patio into the homeowner’s favorite retreat.
The North Scottsdale Success Story
Ms. Hinkle’s home in North Scottsdale presented the perfect opportunity to showcase what a well-designed motorized patio screen can accomplish. Her outdoor space had tremendous potential, but like many Arizona patios, it needed protection from the intense sun and a privacy solution that wouldn’t compromise the beautiful desert views.
The Blue Sky Patio Shades team designed and installed a single, impressive screen measuring 28 feet wide and 11 feet high. The project featured a Beige frame with Solar 95 Cappuccino Screen material—a combination that created perfect harmony with the home’s existing architecture and color palette.
The results speak for themselves. The installation seamlessly integrated with the home’s design, appearing as if it had always been part of the original construction rather than an afterthought addition.
Understanding Your Installation Options
When you choose Blue Sky Patio Shades for your Magnatrack® motorized patio screen, we review three primary installation options to ensure the perfect fit for your specific situation:
Inside Mount
This option places the screen system within the existing opening, creating a clean, streamlined appearance. Inside mounts work exceptionally well when you have adequate depth in your patio structure and want the screen to appear fully integrated.
Jamb Mount
The jamb mount positions the screen system within the jamb or frame of your opening. This installation method provides excellent functionality while maintaining the architectural integrity of your space.
Outside Mount
For Ms. Hinkle’s project, we selected an outside mount installation. This approach positions the screen system outside the existing structure, often providing maximum coverage area and flexibility. The type of installation frequently depends on your home’s construction and design elements, which is why our team conducts thorough assessments before making recommendations.
Each installation method has its advantages, and our experienced team helps you select the option that delivers optimal performance while complementing your home’s unique characteristics.
Year-Round Benefits That Extend Beyond Summer
While most homeowners initially think of motorized patio screens as summer heat relief solutions, the benefits extend far beyond the scorching Arizona summers. Ms. Hinkle’s installation perfectly illustrates this versatility.
Summer Heat Protection
During the intense summer months, the Solar 95 Cappuccino Screen blocks harmful UV rays and reduces heat buildup, making the patio comfortable even during peak afternoon hours. This protection extends the usability of your outdoor furniture.
