A Patio That Knows When to Adjust
By mid-afternoon in Scottsdale, plenty of patios become places you walk past instead of places you sit. The sun gets too low and too bright, the bugs show up right around sunset, and the wind kicks up dust when you least expect it. But none of those mean the outdoor area has to sit unused. Motorized screens let you adjust for those conditions instead of avoiding them.
Lower a screen for shade or bug protection, raise it when things settle down, and go back to an open patio whenever you'd like. The controls sit right at hand, and the housing stays out of sight when you don't need it. StruXure Southwest designs and installs these systems for homeowners across the wider Phoenix Metro, letting you set the mood of your patio day by day.
Choose the Right Level of Coverage
Not every patio has the same problem. Some deal with harsh afternoon sun, some get swarmed by bugs, and some would rather not be so visible to the neighbors. The screen material you choose should match whichever of those sounds most like your situation.
Solar Shading Screens
These screens knock down glare and block a good portion of direct sunlight while still letting you see out. They're particularly useful on west-facing patios, where the late-day sun is typically the main culprit. Beyond making the seating area more usable, solar screens also shield furniture, flooring, TVs, and finishes from constant UV exposure.
Insect Protection Screens
Fine-mesh screens keep flies and mosquitoes out while still letting air pass through freely. This option tends to get the most use around outdoor dining setups, covered porches, and any patio that stays in play during monsoon season. Drop the screens once bugs pick up in the evening, then send them back up once the coast is clear.
Privacy Screens
Privacy fabrics limit sightlines from neighboring yards, nearby streets, or walking paths without sealing off the patio entirely. Pool decks, outdoor kitchens, courtyards, and hillside lots tend to benefit most, along with any property where a neighbor's window or a busy sidewalk sits closer than you'd like. The fabric's density determines how much you screen out.
More Than a Screen in a Box
We don't treat motorized screens as an add-on you bolt onto your patio after the fact. Every system gets built into the surrounding structure, so the finished result looks intentional rather than tacked on. Here's what's included with our motorized screen systems:
Remote and automated controls for quick adjustments
Outdoor-rated materials built to handle Arizona sun and exposure
A choice of fabrics for shade, insect protection, or privacy
Compatibility with smart home apps, timers, and remotes
Low-profile housings suited to modern and traditional homes alike
Sizing built for your specific opening, not a standard template
A selection of frame colors, materials, and finishes
Everything gets measured and built for the exact spot it's going. And because the screens disappear into their housing when they're not in use, you're never stuck choosing between a screened-in porch and an open one. You get to switch between the two depending on the hour.
Your Screens, Your Schedule
Our screens can integrate with smart home systems you're already running, giving you app-based control, timers, or programmed schedules instead of manual adjustments each time. If your outdoor lighting or climate controls already run through an automation platform, screen operation can join that same setup rather than becoming its own separate system.
We'll look at what you're currently using and confirm compatibility before we finalize your design, so the controls end up fitting into your routine instead of adding another one.
Materials Chosen for Life in the Desert
Between UV exposure, heat, dust, and the occasional gust of wind, outdoor products in this climate are tested constantly. The materials and components we use are chosen specifically to withstand those pressures over years of use, not just the first season.
The fabric, motor, tracks, and housing all work as a single unit, and that pairing is part of why the system holds up. Parts that don't come from the same source tend to wear unevenly or stop operating smoothly well before they should. We'll go over proper operation and care during your final review, including when to retract the screens ahead of severe weather.
Why Choose StruXure Southwest?
There's a meaningful gap between a company that sells motorized screens and one that's built to properly install and support them. StruXure Southwest is the exclusive StruXure Partner Company for the Scottsdale market, which means that the products, installation standards, and warranty support all come from the same place.
Here's what that looks like in practice:
Direct product knowledge from a StruXure-authorized team
Custom builds for existing patios and new projects alike
Installation handled entirely in-house, no subcontractors
Support with permitting wherever it's required
Warranty guidance that continues after installation
Years of hands-on experience across Scottsdale and the Phoenix Metro
Licensing, bonding, and insurance under AZ ROC #363675
Being family-owned and local means the person who picks up the phone already knows what's going on with your project. Taken together, that's what separates an installation you can count on from one you're just hoping works out.
Financing That Keeps You in Control
A motorized screen system is meant to last, and paying for it doesn't have to happen all at once. We partner with Upgrade to offer financing to qualified homeowners, with rates and terms based on your application and the scope of your project.
We'll explain how the process works during your consultation, so you have everything you need before deciding how to move forward. That leaves the decision in your hands, with nothing hidden until after you've signed on.
Scottsdale-Based, Phoenix Metro-Wide
StruXure Southwest installs motorized screens throughout Scottsdale and the surrounding Phoenix Metro, including Carefree, Cave Creek, Chandler, Fountain Hills, Gilbert, Glendale, Mesa, Paradise Valley, Peoria, Scottsdale, and Tempe.

Frequently Asked Questions
Depends on the fabric. Solar and insect screens keep visibility while filtering the sun or bugs. Privacy fabrics are denser by design, since limiting sightlines is the goal.
Usually, yes. As long as the existing structure gives us a place to mount the housing and tracks, we can typically retrofit screens onto it. We'll confirm all of this during your site visit.
In many cases, yes. Compatibility depends on your platform and the controls you've chosen, so we'll check your current setup before locking in the design.
We coordinate permitting whenever it's required. Requirements depend on your city, your existing structure, and the project's electrical scope, and we'll go over what applies before installation begins.

Every recommendation we make starts with seeing your patio for ourselves. During your free consultation, we'll review the layout, identify what's making the space hard to use, and go over the fabric and control combinations worth considering.
