About the Product

What Is MagnaTrack?

MagnaTrack is a patented motorized exterior screen system manufactured by Progressive Screens in the United States. It is the world's only self-correcting exterior shade — using rare-earth neodymium magnets embedded along both edges of the screen fabric to lock the shade into precision-machined aluminum tracks. This magnetic retention system, protected by US Patent No. 9,719,292, eliminates the zippers, cables, and tension mechanisms found in every competing product.

The result is an exterior shade that holds securely through 75 MPH winds, self-corrects after impact, and requires no manual adjustment. MagnaTrack screens block up to 97% of UV radiation, reduce patio temperatures by up to 30°F, and deliver 98% fewer service calls than cable-guided or zipper-based alternatives. The system is available in solar mesh, insect screen, privacy fabric, and commercial vinyl configurations.

MagnaTrack screens are fully motorized with Gaposa motors that integrate with Lutron, Savant, Control4, and Crestron smart home systems. Homeowners can operate their screens via the Gaposa Roll Up App, hand-held remotes, in-wall keypads, or voice commands through Amazon Alexa and Google Home. Boise Blinds is Idaho's #1 MagnaTrack dealer and a top MagnaTrack dealer nationally, serving Boise, Eagle, Meridian, and Star, Idaho.

Patented Technology

How MagnaTrack Works

Unlike traditional exterior screens that rely on zippers, cables, or tension systems, MagnaTrack uses powerful rare-earth neodymium magnets embedded along both edges of the screen fabric. As the screen lowers, these magnets snap into precision-machined aluminum tracks mounted on each side of the opening — creating a seal that holds through 75 MPH winds.

Self-Tensioning Magnetic Track

The screen fabric expands under wind pressure, and neodymium magnets automatically re-tension it back into the track. No manual adjustment needed.

10x Pulling Force

Rare earth neodymium magnets deliver ten times the pulling force of conventional systems, keeping the screen locked in place through extreme conditions.

Keder Interlock — Zero Zippers

The patented keder interlock system eliminates zippers entirely. No jams, no snags, no hang-ups, no re-wraps. The most common failure points simply don't exist.

Self-Adjusting Sidetracks

The free-floating magnet track prevents bellowing in wind. When dislodged by impact, the screen self-corrects and snaps back into the track automatically.

Built to Last

Engineering That Sets the Standard

Every component is designed for durability and low maintenance. This is why MagnaTrack owners report 98% fewer service calls than owners of competing systems.

Double Felt System

Brushes off dirt and debris on every cycle, preventing insect entry and keeping the track clean for smooth operation.

Glass-Filled Nylon End Caps

Eliminates corrosion at connection points — a common failure on competing aluminum-only systems.

Super Heavy Weight Bar

The heaviest weight bar in the industry with retention locks. Keeps the screen taut and prevents wind lift at the bottom edge.

Stainless Steel Fasteners

Every fastener is stainless steel for rust-free performance. Combined with the thickest extruded aluminum housing in the category.

Gaposa Motor System

Smart Home Ready, Right Out of the Box

MagnaTrack screens are powered by Gaposa — one of the most advanced and reliable home automation motor systems in the world. Every screen integrates seamlessly with your existing smart home ecosystem, giving you effortless control from anywhere.

Obstacle Detection

Built-in sensors stop the motor if the screen encounters resistance, preventing rewrap situations.

App Control

Control up to 32 screens from the Gaposa Roll Up App on your phone or tablet.

Scheduling

Set up to 10 automated schedules — screens go up or down with the sun, no manual input needed.

MagnaTrack is rated for 75 MPH winds — far exceeding the 20–30 MPH afternoon gusts common in the Treasure Valley. The neodymium magnet system holds the fabric in the track under wind pressure and automatically re-corrects if impacted.

MagnaTrack solar mesh fabrics block 70–97% of UV rays depending on the fabric selection. At maximum density, the screens block 97% of UV radiation and reduce patio surface temperatures by up to 30°F.

Boise Blinds installs MagnaTrack exterior shades throughout the Treasure Valley including Boise, Eagle, Star, Meridian, Nampa, Caldwell, Middleton, and surrounding communities.

Zip screens use fabric zipped into side channels, which can jam, stick, or wear over time — especially in Idaho's temperature extremes. MagnaTrack uses rare-earth neodymium magnets instead of zippers. The fabric snaps into the magnetic track and self-corrects if disturbed, with no jams, no hang-ups, and no re-wraps. MagnaTrack is the only self-correcting shade and the only rare-earth magnet shade in the world. It is also rated for significantly higher wind speeds than most zip screen systems and holds multiple patents that competing systems do not.
