Q:
I am interested in ordering the bamboo shades for an enclosed patio with screens. Will these work for this open area? Will they hold up in the weather?A:
Most of our blinds and shades are designed for interior use. They would not hold up over time in areas they would get wet from rain, snow or other weather. We do carry a few roller shades that are rated for outdoor use such as our Phifer SheerWeave 4000 Roller Shades. They have fabric as well as mechanisms built to hold up in wet environments. We also have a full line of outdoor shades.Our bamboo shades are designed for interior use. They would be ok in an enclosed patio where they would not get wet from the weather. We do have a few patterns in our tavarua woven wood line of shades designed for outside use that are not listed on our website. They would have to be a special order so call us for pricing and availability.
