What Motorized Screens Do
Templar Motorized Screens are engineered to improve comfort, control sunlight, and protect your home’s outdoor and exterior spaces. Built in Washington and designed for Northwest weather, they deliver year‑round performance with clean, modern aesthetics.
What Outdoor Screens Provide
Shade & Heat Control — Reduce glare and block harsh afternoon sun.
Wind & Rain Protection — Stop sideways rain and coastal wind without closing off the space.
Bug Control — Enjoy airflow without insects.
Privacy — Add daytime privacy without losing visibility.
Energy Efficiency — Exterior window screens block heat before it reaches the glass.
Motorized Convenience — Quiet, smooth operation with wall switches, remotes, or smart‑home automation.
Versatility — Perfect for patios, outdoor rooms, windows, garages, breezeways, and large exterior openings.
Templar Motorized Screens installed by Decks & Patio Covers give homeowners a simple, elegant way to control their environment — indoors and outdoors.
Screens for Patio Covers & Outdoor Rooms
Templar Screens integrate seamlessly with our engineered patio covers to create true outdoor rooms — comfortable, protected spaces you can use in every season. Each screen is mounted cleanly, giving your patio cover a finished, architectural look instead of a bolt‑on accessory.
A Clean, Engineered Fit Our patio covers are built with straight geometry, strong aluminum framing, and consistent sightlines — which means Templar Screens drop in perfectly. The result is a unified structure where the cover and screens look like they were designed together from day one.
A Space You Can Use Year‑Round Motorized screens transform an open patio into a controlled environment. With a single button press, you can block wind, reduce glare, stop sideways rain, and keep bugs out — without losing airflow or visibility. It’s the simplest way to extend your outdoor season in the Northwest.

Screens for Windows & Exterior Openings
Templar Screens aren’t limited to patios. They’re one of the most effective ways to control heat, glare, and UV on your home’s windows and exterior openings. Installed on the outside of the home, they block solar heat before it reaches the glass, dramatically improving comfort and reducing cooling loads.
Why Homeowners Choose Exterior Window Screens
Superior Heat Control — Exterior shading stops radiant heat at the source.
Comfort in West‑Facing Rooms — Reduce temperature spikes in bonus rooms, offices, and second‑story spaces.
Glare Reduction — Improve visibility and comfort without darkening the room.
Smart‑Home Integration — Deploy automatically during peak UV hours.
Clean Architectural Look — Modern frames blend with Northwest home styles.
Flexible Applications — Ideal for windows, garage openings, breezeways, workshops, and more.
Templar Screens turn problem windows and harsh exposures into comfortable, usable spaces — without replacing glass or adding bulky interior blinds.
Energy‑Saving Performance
Exterior‑mounted screens are one of the most effective ways to reduce solar heat gain and lower cooling demand. According to the U.S. Department of Energy, exterior shading can significantly reduce HVAC load and improve indoor comfort.
Proven Energy Benefits
Blocks up to 95% of solar heat before it reaches the window.
Cuts HVAC energy use by 25–30% during peak heating and cooling seasons.
Lowers annual utility bills by $100–$200 on average.
Reduces Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) of existing windows using high‑density mesh fabrics.
Automated Efficiency — Motorized screens can deploy automatically during peak sun hours using timers or smart‑home sensors.
Why Exterior Screens Outperform Interior Blinds Interior blinds only stop light after the heat has already entered the home. Exterior screens stop the heat before it ever touches the glass, preventing radiant absorption and reducing indoor temperature spikes.
For homeowners looking to improve comfort and reduce energy costs, exterior window screens are one of the highest‑impact upgrades available — and one of the most affordable.
How We Compare to StructureX, MagnaTrack, and Patio Enclosures
Homeowners in West Puget Sound often compare Decks & Patio Covers with Templar Screens to StructureX, MagnaTrack, and Patio Enclosures. Each company serves a different purpose — but none combine engineered patio covers with Northwest‑built motorized screens the way we do.
StructureX (Louvered Pergolas)
StructureX builds aluminum louvered roofs designed for sun control. In the Northwest, moving parts can be affected by tree debris, moisture, and seasonal weather. Louvered systems also require yearly maintenance and cost significantly more than our engineered patio covers, which provide soft, filtered light year‑round with no moving parts.
MagnaTrack
MagnaTrack is a premium national screen system sold through blinds dealers. Because it’s manufactured in southern states, shipping to the Northwest is expensive and lead times are typically six to eight weeks. The system is engineered for hurricane‑prone regions, which adds cost without providing meaningful benefits for Northwest homes.
Patio Enclosures
Patio Enclosures specializes in glass and vinyl window rooms. Their products are more like sunrooms than outdoor rooms, and they require full framing, permitting, and higher budgets. Best for: enclosed sunrooms Limitations: expensive, permanent, not suited for airflow or open‑air use.
Homeowners choose Decks & Patio Covers, a licensed contractor, to design and install patio covers integrated with Templar motorized screens. The result is a system that performs better in Northwest weather, looks architecturally intentional, and delivers year‑round comfort without the cost or complexity of a full enclosure.
Why Templar Motorized Screens

That combination gives homeowners a level of fit, finish, and long‑term durability they simply don’t get from blinds dealers or national screen brands.
Engineered for Northwest Weather Every screen is designed for coastal wind, sideways rain, salt air, and year‑round moisture. Frames, tracks, and mesh fabrics are selected specifically for the Pacific Northwest — not for desert climates or mild-weather regions.
Built Locally, Supported Locally Templar Screens are manufactured in Auburn, WA, which means faster lead times, better communication, and real support. No long waits, no national distributor delays, no out‑of-state warranty headaches.
