5 ½” & 7” Housing SmartScreen Motorized Measuring

These measuring instructions cover both the 5 ½” and the 7” housing SmartScreen Motorized

Minimum width of the SmartScreen Motorized is 3’ wide (necessary to accommodate the motor within the roll tube)

Maximum width is 30’ wide

(25’ max width with Vinyl)

Maximum height is 23’ tall

(16’ max height with Vinyl)

1. Please read before going to site to measure

2. Bookmark the measuring and installation instructions, or print a copy to take with you on the install –

www.wizardscreens.com/technical

3. Call to schedule a training session on installations before going to site

4. When installing, if you have questions, call us before leaving the site

5. Determine the installation type

a. IUH (Inside Under Header)

i. Housing is mounted inside the opening, under the header

i. The housing can be attached through the top in to the header and/or through the end

caps in to the jamb

ii. Tracks are mounted inside the opening between the jams

i. You will need to order 2” x 2” angle to accommodate installing the tracks on the inside

of the opening

ii. The 2” x 2” angle runs from the bottom of the housing to where the slide bar will stop at

the lowest point, or the full length of the track

iii. The angle is attached to the jam on either side of the opening using a flat head fastener

iv. There should be a fastener attaching the angle to the jamb at the top of the angle below

the housing, 2 fasteners in the middle spaced evenly apart, and a fastener at the bottom

close to the lowest point (minimum)

v. The track will then be attached to the 2” x 2” angle

b. OAH (Outside Above Header) or Standard Face Mount

i. Housing is mounted to a wall above the opening

i. The housing can be attached through the back of the housing in to the header

ii. Tracks are face mounted to the left and the right of the opening

6. Determine what material you will be fastening the unit to

a. Different types of fasteners may be necessary depending what material the unit is being fastened to

b. When fastening to a steel (or other metal) structure please take note of where the welds are that

connect the posts to the header as this will affect where the housing is mounted

7. Determine the dimensions of the unit by using the 3 point measuring system *a laser measuring tool is useful

a. Make sure the opening is square

i. Make note of any variances

i. Some variances can be account for and some cannot

b. For the housing width measure in between the posts (in the jamb) at the top, middle and at the bottom

of the opening

i. For the finished width of an IUH install, deduct 3/8” from the narrowest of those 3

measurements

ii. For the finished width of an OAH install, add 5” to the widest of those 3 measurements

c. For the unit height measure from the ground, or lowest point, to the top underneath the header on the

extreme left side, in the middle and on the extreme right side

i. For the finished height of an IUH install, take the tallest measurement

ii. For the finished height of an OAH install, add the height of the housing (5 ½” or 7”) plus the

height of the slide bar (2 ½”) plus the height of the bottom seal (1 ½”) to the tallest

measurement

iii. There should be a minimum of 5 ½” or 7” of header space (depending on housing size) to mount

the housing to

i. If there is not enough space on the header to accommodate the height of the housing,

the slide bar and the bottom seal there may be some parts (either the bottom seal

and/or the slide bar) and the customer should be made aware of this as those parts may

be visible from the backside of the opening. You can use a tape measure to measure the

header to see how much space there is to accommodate the housing, slide bar and

bottom seal

d. If the left or the right side is longer than the other (for a slope in a patio for example) the 1 ½” brush pile

bottom seal will accommodate a 1 ½” bias. If the slope is greater than 1 ½”, up to a 2” bias can be built

in to the mesh to accommodate a total difference of up to 3 ½” between the extreme left and the

extreme right side of the unit

e. Crowns, moldings, humps in the floor, etc. cannot be accommodated

8. Determine the housing size (5 ½” or 7”) and roll tube size ( 4” or 5”)

a. Units 22’and wider and/or 12’ and taller will use a 7” housing and a 5” roll tube

b. Units up to and narrower than 22’ wide and 12” tall will use a 5 ½” housing and a 4” roll tube

c. If a unit is narrower than 20’ and/or shorter than 12’ a 7” housing can be used if necessary

i. If there are 2 or more screens in the same location and at least 1 of those screens must be in 7”

housing due to its size, any of the screens that would normally be in a 5 ½” housing can be

ordered in a 7” housing for aesthetic purposes

d. Units wider than 250” and all units with clear vinyl screen will require the double idler system rather

than the standard pivot

i. Neither the pivot or the double idler system will affect the dimensions of the unit

9. Determine housing, track and slide bar color (and angle if necessary)

a. White, Black, Beige, Bronze, Ivory aluminum

10. Determine the bottom seal option for slide bar

a. 1 ½” black brush pile or 4” grey rubber bottom seal

11. Determine the screen type

a. Insect, solar and clear vinyl options are available

b. A horizontal seam may be necessary for insect and solar mesh options

i. Due to restrictions of the size of the roll width, multiple pieces of mesh may need to be welded

together, causing a seam

ii. A seam can be located at a specified point anywhere between the top of the slide bar and within

the roll width dimension

i. This is useful for the seam to line up with a railing or other obstacle to minimize the look

up the seam

c. Please see attached appendix for mesh options and roll widths

d. Clear vinyl needs to have a colored border surrounding the clear vinyl on 4 sides

i. The minimum dimensions of the border are 8” on the left and right side, 12” on the bottom

above the slide bar and 12 “ between at the top between the roll tube and the top of the clear

vinyl

ii. Border color options are black, white and beige

e. Clear vinyl comes in 50”x 100” width rolls so several panels may need to be welded together running

horizontally to accommodate a width and a vertical seam will be visible

f. If the clear vinyl height is greater than 100” the remaining height is finished with the border material,

even if it is greater than 12”

i. The extra border material can also be added above the slide bar rather than between the roll

tube and the top of the clear vinyl depending on the home owners request

g. When choosing clear vinyl a drawing showing the dimensions of the clear vinyl and the border will be

sent to you for approval. Manufacturing will not start on the vinyl until your approval of the drawing has

been received

h. Manufacturing clear vinyl requires an extended lead time (approximately 1 to 2 weeks)

12. Determine motor location

a. Look at the opening where the screen will be rolling away from you

b. Motor can be located on either the left or the right of the screen

c. Select a side closest to where the outlet is or will be placed

i. The units come with a 10’power cable and 24’ power cables are available if necessary

d. Motors need 110v and pull 1.6 amps per unit

e. For an IUH install the outlet must be towards the back of the unit as the power cord can only exit the

housing or track through the back of the unit

13. Determine motor size

a. All SmartScreen Motorized come with the Somfy Maestria motor with obstacle detection

b. 5” roll tube will use a Somfy 550 motor

c. 4” roll tube will use a Somfy 525 motor

d. The size of the Somfy motor will affect the speed at which the screen rolls up or down

i. 4” roll tube with a 525 motors will roll faster than a 5” roll tube with a 550 motor

ii. It is possible to match roll tubes and motors on a multi-unit project so that all the screens roll at

the same speed *example, units that will need a 4” roll tube on a project with 5” roll tubes can

be upgraded to 5” roll tubes with 550 motor

14. Determine type and number of remotes necessary

a. Somfy offers a 1, 5 and a 16 channel remote

i. If there is only 1 unit a single channel remote will work

ii. Between 2 and 5 units a 5 channel remote will work and each screen can be programmed on to

a separate channel

iii. Between 6 and 16 units a 16 cannel remote will work and each screen can be programmed on a

separate channel

iv. If there is a spare channel on the multi-channel remotes, all of the screens can be added to that

empty channel to allow movement of all the screens at once

v. There is a 30’ max radius for remote usage

i. If there are screens in different areas of the home multiple remotes may be necessary

15. Determine accessories

a. Somfy myLink

i. Converts the homes Wi-Fi to RTS that the motors can read

ii. Allows for control of the screen through an app on a smartphone

iii. Allows for third party home automation integration

iv. The myLink must be located within the Wi-Fi hot zone and within 30’ of the motorized screen

b. Somfy Repeater

i. Increases the distance a remote signal can reach by another 30’

c. Somfy Sun Control

i. Can be set to control the motorized screens based on how much sun it detects

d. Somfy Wind Control

i. Can be set to control the motorized screens based on how much wind it detects

*Please note for Somfy wind and sun control options –using these accessories can cause the screen to be in

motion without it being checked for debris or damage prior to the screen being in motion, which can lead to new

or further damage. Customer would have to use at own risk

16. Place the order using the information gathered during the measuring process through Wizard’s online ordering

system

a. Please ensure to make a note of any and all special requests

i. Examples:

i. Seam location

ii. Extra remotes

iii. Accessories

iv. Bottom seal option

v. Variances in height between the left and right side

4. Attach the 3 prong plug to the wires at the end of the cord *plug designs may be different however below lists

the basic rules for installing the plug

a. Excess cord may be cut if necessary

*Important –when cutting the power cord leave a minimum of 18” of cord between the motor and the end of

the power cord. The antenna for the motor is within those 18” and if cut it will limit the usage of the remote

b. Using a Phillips screw driver attach the white wire to the silver colored tab, the green wire to the green

colored tab and the black wire to the bronze colored tab

c. Once all the wires are secure complete plug install by tightening plug cover to plug

5. Wake up the motor and set the limits *if power is lost before this process is complete the steps will need to be

repeated

a. Take the remote out of its box and set it to the correct channel if multiple units (remotes come with

battery and are ready to use out of the box)

b. Plug the unit in to the outlet

i. Screen will jog up and down

c. To wake the motor up press the up and down buttons together until the unit jogs up and down

of the end cap. That is the length of the track

b. Take the corresponding side track

i. To find which track goes on which side, take 1 piece of track and face it so that the beveled end

is pointing up towards the housing, the open end (where the track cover will snap on to) is

facing out and the groove for the zipper is facing in towards the other post

ii. Whichever side matches that lay out is the correct track side

c. Measure the back side of the track below the bevel towards the bottom end

d. Mark the length measured earlier

e. With the chop saw cut at that point

f. Take the track cover and measure the same length and cut

g. Repeat the same steps for the other track

i. The obstacle detection will engage is the screen is impeded

w. If the screen rolls up and down smoothly, install a fastener at the midway point between the top and

middle fasteners and another between the middle and the bottom fastener

i. In the middle of the track and through the back

ii. If the screen does not roll down smoothly, or the obstacle detection engages

i. check the groove in the tracks where the zipper rides at the point the screen stops to

make sure there is nothing impeding the screen

ii. If the obstacle detection engages and there is nothing impeding the zipper in the

groove, ensure the tracks are level and perpendicular to the ground

iii. If the obstacle detection still engages ensure the slide bar is not rubbing against the

tracks

If the slide bar is rubbing against the tracks, adjust the slide bar so it is centered

between the tracks

x. If the outlet is towards the bottom of the unit drill a 3/8” hole through the side of the track (opposite of

the zipper groove side) and feed the power cord through the hole

i. The plug will need to be unplugged and removed in order to feed the cable through the hole,

then reattached once the plug is through the hole and plugged back in

y. Snap the track cover over the corresponding track starting at the top of the track and working your way

down ensuring the cover snaps on (a distinctive snapping sound can be heard)

8. If there was a bias cut in to the screen and the slide bar is not level at the upper limit

a. Set the screen to the lower limit

b. Using duct tape cut 5 10” strips

c. Stack each of the 10” strips on the roll tube (or screen if the roll tube is not visible) on the longest side of

the mesh (left or right side depending which was the lowest point slopes)

i. Strips of tape must run from the end of the roll tube in towards the other side of the tube

d. Once all the strips are on press the up button and roll the screen to its highest limit

e. Strips of tape may need to be added or taken off depending on how great of a bias there is in the screen

f. Add or remove tape 1 strip at a time until the slide bar is level at the upper limit
