Retractable Roof

The panels roll on motorized steel wheels that move over steel rails. The wheels are powered by 96 10-horsepower, DC motors. Power is provided by long cables that are reeled in and out as the roof slides open and shut.While the cost of a retractable roof varies depending on different parameters, they generally start from just under $10,000 for a basic & small sized model with no lights, up to many tens of thousands for larger or coupled systems that may have integrated lighting / custom gutters / unusual shapes or overhangs.
