Our patented, award-winning Ultra-Lock boasts adaptive locking technology, which allows the shade position to be easily reset if simultaneous locking is interrupted by unexpected weather conditions or obstacles. A stronger heavy-duty latching pin combined with a hidden integrated design ensures a reliable solution, which can be pre-assembled off-site, for a quick & easy installation. Unlike any other solution, when paired with our updated FT motor, the patented technology of the Ultra-lock achieves automatic, one-action lock and tensioning.

PRODUCT UPDATES

Our Innovative & Design Center is constantly working to update and improve our products, ensuring every Zipscreen is practical to fabricate, install and use. The recent updates introduce an upgraded F72 weight bar and weight bar accessories.

Ultra-lock Seal

 

The all new Ultra-lock Seal works with our F56 & F72 weight bars in conjunction with the Ultra-lock. Crafted from a thick, dimensionally stable rubber material, the new seal compresses and expands while maintaining its shape, offering a better bottom seal than ever before.
