Unlike ready-made shades, they are custom-sized to fit your patio.  Large areas can be covered by multiple shades.  Our bungee cord hold-down system is ideal for attaching shades to a railing or deck without the need for a cable or post in the middle of the opening. Exterior Solar screen fabrics block up to 97% of the heat without creating a closed in feeling.

Sun Shades make your patio enjoyable on hot summer days

Attach the bungee hold-downs for protection from the wind and errant golf balls. Enjoy your summer evening and make your family and guests comfortable.Bright sun and excessive heat can make patio and deck uncomfortable when the sun starts to set. This is also the time you are likely to be grilling dinner and entertaining. Lower our sun shade when you need it and roll it up when you don’t. Shades can also be designed into new backyard construction projects.
Exterior shades will dramatically reduce sun glare and keep you cool to enjoy the great outdoors.  Protect your deck or patio from harsh sun, golf balls, and neighbors. Making your patio area safe and private is what Exterior Shading is all about. Dense solar screen fabric weaves provide excellent daytime privacy. Light colors screens provide the best privacy.

 There are fabrics exclusively for insect protection that provide minimal sun protection. With a wide array of fabrics available our Designers will find the sun AND insect protection you are looking for! And you can still see the sun set because the screen doesn’t block the view.

Patio Insect Shades keep fabric taut in breezy conditions

Solar screen shades won’t flap around in the breeze with a ZIP captured edge system, that spreads the wind stress across both tracks keeping shades taut in windy conditions.  We have tested our shades in the down position if very breezy conditions.  The captured edge system has prevented the fabric from blowing around and provided a wind break on the patio.
Note on high winds: If the shades are down, they can be retracted in windy conditions.  We do not recommend rolling any patio shade down in high wind conditions.
