Our exterior Shade Systems

Custom made for perfect fit and finish

Our patented retractable solar screen systems reduce heat gain in your home or business and blend perfectly with any décor or style.

Solar heat gain is the amount of heat that enters a building through its windows. It can account for up to 30% of a building’s cooling energy load. Retractable solar screens can help to reduce heat gain by blocking up to 90% of the sun’s heat and UV rays before they reach your windows. This can help to keep your home or business cooler and more comfortable, while also reducing your energy bills.

The most amazing feature of our shade system is the many models and configurations that are available to meet almost any need.

We offer a wide range of retractable solar screen systems to choose from, so you can find the perfect solution for your needs and budget. Our systems come in a variety of widths and heights, and they can be configured in a variety of ways to fit your specific space.

For example, we offer systems with and without cassettes. Cassettes provide additional protection for your solar screen fabric when it is retracted. We also offer a variety of fabric retention options, including Freefall (no cables or tracks), Cables, Rails, and Captured edge in track). Freefall systems are ideal for applications where you need maximum visibility. Cable and rail systems provide additional support for larger screens. Captured edge-in-track systems are the most durable and secure option.

Widths up to 25′ and Drops up to 16′ put this advanced shade system in a category of its own providing some of the largest shade coverage in the industry. This makes it ideal for shading very large homes or commercial spaces.

Our retractable solar screen systems are some of the largest on the market, making them ideal for shading very large homes or commercial spaces. We can create custom systems to fit any size opening, up to 25′ wide and 16′ high. This makes our systems ideal for shading patios, decks, porches, lanais, and large windows.

All of our shade systems are custom-made to a fraction of an inch for perfect fit and finish.

We understand that every application is different, so we custom-make all of our shade systems to your exact specifications. This ensures that your system will fit perfectly and look great.

We also offer a variety of additional features and options, such as motorized operation, wind sensors, and privacy screens. So, whether you are looking for a simple, affordable solution or a custom system with all the bells and whistles, we have a retractable solar screen system that is perfect for you.
