Perhaps the fastest growing home upgrade over the past decade, these have many names. Universal calls them Motion Screens. Phantom calls them Executive Screens. You may have heard them referred to as a Power Screen, originally coined by Clear View when they manufactured them. They’ve also been called Zip Screens, Keder Screens, and more.
You know the expression, a rose by any other name would still smell as sweet? That applies here. All of these names in one fashion or another refer to a motorized screen or shade that is engineered primarily for exterior use and is used with a remote control to deploy a screen or shade fabric that will go up and down within a retainer on it’s sidetracks. That’s where the zipper or keder comes into play (we prefer zipper because it stacks better).
Simply put we’ve been at this a long time and know what homeowners need in a screen or shade, and the quality that your home demands. Born out of decades of hands-on motorized screen experience, we designed and still build our screens and shades not just for their functionality, but for their beauty as well. Compared to the other major manufacturers you will find our 4.5” “Tiffany Cut” hood and cover are smaller, sleeker, less industrial, and far more elegant. We individually powder coat all our units to order, cutting them first and painted them second, so you have no raw edges that will peel over time. Add all of this to our 6063 T 6 extrusions and the results are built to last.
We are, however, not just a pretty face. Engineering and innovation are our middle names (well, they would be if we had middle names). We use almost no off-the-shelf parts. Each component was designed to work in a superior fashion than the industry standard. For example, our idler incorporates not just one, but 2 ball bearings make it incredibly smooth and unbelievably quiet The industry standard is a creaky, noisy plastic idler – and we hate creaky, noisy plastic idlers.
The proof in the pudding? We offer an industry best 7-year motor warranty and 15-year fabric warranty with American Made Fabric.
Power Screens are a fantastic upgrade to your backyard, garage, or outdoor lifestyle. They are, however, very technical and heavy units. Your new screen or shade begins by being manufactured with the latest tools and technology. This includes the largest RF welder we have ever seen; it’s 30 feet long, and the newest in material cutting and machining. Before leaving the factory, your screen will have also passed three separate quality control checkpoints and packaged in specialized foam to keep from getting damaged in transit to your home or business (they are very heavy and really big, truck drivers tend hate them)
Furthermore, your average window treatment installer has likely never installed one. You can rest assured that all Apollo Motorized Screens come professionally installed, by a factory trained technician or distributor. From installation to motor programming, our network of dealers is top notch, and is backed by unparalleled support.
