  • OUTSIDE MOUNT:
    • Enter the finished size you would like your blinds made. Measurements include the headrail & bottomrail.
    • Check for trim or other obstructions that could interfere with installation.
    • For tight openings (such as between cabinets or walls), choose an inside mount for proper deductions.

Note: Width and length measurements may vary +/- 1/8".

Product Description



« Back
Exterior Solar Sun Screens feature durable, exterior-grade screen fabric and oil-rubbed bronze hardware. The high-quality PVC-coated polyester fabric is heat- and fire-resistant and blocks approximately 90–92% of UV rays while still helping preserve your outdoor view.

Each Exterior Solar Sun Screen includes a three-sided oil-rubbed bronze valance for added strength and protection. Shades are available in select 4, 6, 8, and 10-foot widths, with the finished fabric narrower than the ordered headrail width. Each shade measures 8 feet high when fully lowered.

The standard pole-operated lift includes one removable adjustable pole that extends to 2, 4, or 6 feet, providing added reach as needed for convenient operation. Wind Flex bungee hold-downs are also included. The bungee system secures both sides of the fabric to help keep the shade in place during light wind conditions. The operating ring is located on the right side of the shade but can be moved to the left.

This shade features a standard roll configuration, with the fabric rolling from the back of the tube.

For added convenience, upgrade to a motorized lift. The motor plugs into a standard 120V outlet using the included adapter. A multi-channel programmable remote is included and can control up to 5 shades. Motorized shades include cable guides.

Fabric Width Deductions:

Pole-operated lift: Fabric is 2 1/8 inches narrower than the ordered width
Motorized lift: Fabric is 2 inches narrower than the ordered width

  • Oil-Rubbed Bronze Valance Included
  • Adjustable 2-, 4-, or 6-Foot Removable Pole Included
  • Wind Flex Bungee Hold-Downs Included with Pole-Operated Shades
  • Cable Guides Included with Motorized Shades
  • Standard Roll Fabric
