Outdoor Patio Solar "Zip" Shade
Our notes
Fits a wide opening, up to 240 inches by 144 inches, for a buyer who wants to order online with a posted price instead of a dealer quote. It showed $1,659.00 on November 1, 2026, with "Starting at" $1,759.00 also on the page. Choices include a manual crank, 120V Dooya or Somfy motors, and a Li-ion motor with solar panel. Hardwiring is listed as an option; that requires a licensed electrician. The seller says: "Our standard Zip system is rated for winds up to 60 mph." Inside mounting with L-channel costs extra.

Wind
"Our standard Zip system is rated for winds up to 60 mph."
Copied exactly from the seller's page, read 2026-11-01. Sellers don't test wind the same way, so this can't be compared with another seller's figure. More on wind wording.
How it mounts depends on your wall, fascia or beam. Confirm it with the maker or a licensed installer.
