The Professional Specification Resource for Patented Motorized Screen Systems

You have a project that calls for a motorized screen. You need engineering data, not a sales pitch. You need a CSI spec, not a brochure. You need it in five minutes — not five days chasing a dealer.

That's exactly what NextGenScreens was built for.

Architects & Engineers

You specify. We make it defensible. CSI-formatted specs, BIM objects, PE-stamped engineering data, and AIA-registered CEU courses — organized around how you actually work, not how we want to sell.

Designers section featuring project galleries, material options, color selections, and system guides — engineered specifications and technical data to match every design intent

Designers

Your vision. Engineered to match it. Project galleries, material options, color selections, and system guides. The right specification for every design intent — with technical data to back it up.

Builders and Contractors section featuring installation specs, structural requirements, technical support, and a professional dealer network — full project support from spec to installation

Builders & Contractors

From spec to installation. Supported every step. Installation specs, structural requirements, technical support, and a dealer network built for professional projects. We don't disappear after the spec.

The NextGenScreens Advantage

Two Patented Systems. One Specification Source.

Most architects writing motorized screens into a project have one real option: MagnaTrack. Not because it's the only good system — but because it's the only one that shows up with a complete spec package, CEU credits, and engineering documentation ready to go.

That changes now.

NextGenScreens gives you access to two distinct, patented motorized screen systems — OneTrack and MaxForce — through a single professional resource. No chasing dealers. No incomplete data. No guesswork on which system fits which project.

Every project has different performance requirements. Wind exposure, span dimensions, application type, and aesthetic priorities all influence the right specification. Having both systems — with complete engineering data for each — gives you options that no single-system manufacturer can offer.

Both systems are US patent-protected. Both are independently tested. Both come with CSI specs, BIM objects, PE-stamped drawings, and documentation built to survive any value-engineering review.

Earn the Credit. Own the Spec.

Everything the professional channel has been missing from the motorized screen industry — formatted for your workflow, available in minutes.

The motorized screen category is growing faster than the professional education around it. Most architects specifying these systems are doing it on instinct and manufacturer reputation — not on a foundation of engineering knowledge they've formally built.

NextGenScreens offers AIA/CES-registered continuing education on motorized screen specification, wind-load design considerations, and code compliance for retractable enclosure systems.

Walk away knowing exactly how to evaluate a track system, what engineering data to require, and how to write a specification that survives value engineering — and earn the CEU credits your licensure requires while you do it.

Project Gallery

Specified. Installed. Documented.

Every project in this gallery was written into construction documents by a professional, installed by a certified team, and documented with the data that matters. This is what it looks like when the specification process works.

The Problem We Solve

You Shouldn't Have to Fight This Hard to Specify a Screen.

Architects and designers are increasingly responsible for motorized screen selections on residential, commercial, and hospitality projects. The liability is real. The design intent matters. The specification needs to hold up under review.

And yet — the resources most manufacturers offer haven't kept pace with that responsibility.

✗ No BIM objects. No CSI specs. Engineering data buried in marketing language.

✗ Technical questions that route to voicemail — not an engineer.

✗CEU programs that don't exist. No continuing education in the entire category.

✗ Professionals forced to write "motorized screen system by others" — losing control of design intent entirely.

That's the specification gap. And it's exactly the problem NextGenScreens was built to close — not with better marketing, but with engineering data, specification tools, professional education, and a technical team that treats your workflow — not our sales process — as the priority.

BE IN THE KNOW....

Don't let costly mistakes, wrong designs, wrong applications, or warranty-voiding your motorized screen investment. Manufacture are in the business of selling screens, contractors can cut corners, and many products often under perform promises. Don't be a victum. BE IN THE KNOW before you commit: understanding proper wind-load ratings, motor specifications, and installation requirements is the difference between screens that protect your home for decades and those that fail when you need them most is a simple choice, a choice of being an informed consumer.
