Motorized Shades in Houston, TX
Shade, privacy and up to 90% less solar heat, at the push of a button.
Motorized screens are quickly becoming the choice for Houston homeowners looking to upgrade their outdoor spaces. They are easy to use, they almost entirely disappear when not in use, and they give you shade the moment you want it. AOLE designs, supplies and installs motorized outdoor shades across Greater Houston. Family owned and working here since 2003.
Three Reasons Houston Homeowners Choose Motorized Screens
- Excellent sun control
- Daytime privacy
- Extends your living area
Those three do a lot of work together. The shade makes the patio usable in the middle of the day, the privacy means you are not on display to the street or the neighbors, and between them you get back a part of the house you had effectively given up for half the year.
Blocks Up to 90% of the Sun’s Heat
Motorized shades are not only about comfort, they are about the energy bill. Ours block up to 90% of the sun’s heat, which keeps the patio livable and takes load off the rooms behind it. You get immediate privacy and real energy savings from the same product, along with protection from the elements and from prying eyes.
When they are up, they leave a sleek look that adds value to the home. When they are down, the space behind them changes character completely.
Customization Options
AOLE motorized shades come in a variety of sizes and fit openings up to 22.5 feet wide. They can be surface mounted or recessed depending on your preference, and they come in a variety of colors to match any decor. Insect screens and pet resistant screens are also available.
That range is why they suit both a small back porch and a full outdoor living room. The opening dictates the solution rather than the other way around.
Automation Made Easy
The best part of AOLE motorized shades is the automation. They can be controlled through a wall mounted remote, a handheld controller, or an app on your smartphone. Wind and sun sensors are available for automatic adjustment, so the shades respond to the weather without anyone needing to think about it. They can also be added to most home automation systems.
In day to day use this is what separates a motorized shade from a manual one. The shade that adjusts itself is the shade that actually gets used.
Fabrics
AOLE motorized shades come in a variety of fabrics and styles designed by multiple manufacturers, including Phifer, Twitchell, Mermet and Serge Ferrari. Fabrics are fade resistant and come in a selection of colors and weights, including Tuff Screen as standard, Super Screen no see um, and 80#, 90#, 95#, 97# and 99#. Blackout and clear vinyl options are also available.
The weight you choose changes how much you see out and how much heat you keep off. That is a conversation worth having during the estimate, because the right fabric matters as much as the right size.
Hoods
The 5 sided 45 degree hood is available in 5.5 inch and 6.5 inch sizes, and the rounded hood offers an aesthetically pleasing design. Both come in a selection of colors including black, grey, brown, dark bronze, beige, stucco, alpaca, carbon, mocha, sand, chestnut, white and grey, and white.
Installation
Installation is straightforward. Certified dealers install motorized shades with care for your home and leave it the way they found it. The process is different for every home, so ask us any questions you have about the procedure and we will walk you through exactly what happens on your property.
Retractable Garage Door Screens
The same technology works on the garage. Retractable garage door screens are affordable and retract almost completely when not in use. They are mold and mildew resistant, they install on top of your existing garage door, and they come in a variety of frame colors, fabric choices and mounting options. They add value to your home and are approved for installation in most home communities.
