Outdoor Shades & Screens: Your Questions Answered
Outdoor shades and screens make your outdoor living spaces more comfortable by bringing indoor comforts —like privacy, shade, wind control, and bug prevention — outside. Are our custom outdoor shades right for your home? The answers to our most frequently asked questions can help you decide.
FAQ 1: What are the benefits of your custom outdoor shades & screens?
Our outdoor shades and screens enhance your outdoor experience by:
Blocking harsh sun. This means no more squinting, no more glare on your outdoor television, and no more sunburn! This also helps keep your porch cooler in warmer months.
Providing privacy so nosy neighbors can’t see into your porch. Enjoy your morning coffee in your pajamas — no one is watching!
Stopping bugs from entering your porch. Still enjoy your outdoor space, even during mosquito season.
Reducing wind and retaining heat from outdoor heaters & fireplaces for a more comfortable porch in cooler months.
Protecting your outdoor furnishings, BBQ setup, and other equipment from damaging UV rays.
FAQ 2: What kind of structure can they be installed on?
Our outdoor shades & screens can be used on a variety of structures including covered porches, pergolas, lanais, balconies, garages, sunrooms, and under decks. They are available in a variety of custom colors to perfectly match your home’s exterior and they are fully retractable so when they aren’t in use they completely disappear.
FAQ 3: How do you operate them?
Choose from manual or motorized operating systems. Our motorized options are our most popular as they allow you to operate your shade with the push of a button or the command of your voice.
FAQ 4: Are they durable?
Yes. Our outdoor shades & screens are built to last. They have been independently tested with winds over 100 miles per hour. Obstacle detection and automatic adjustment prevent fabric damage and ensure perfect tension. They also come with an industry-leading warranty including a lifetime hardware warranty, a 10-year fabric and mesh warranty, and a 5-year motor and controls warranty.
FAQ 5: Are they child and pet-safe?
Yes. Our obstacle detection prevents shades from lowering if a child or a pet were to be standing or sitting underneath them. And because there are no dangling cords, they do not pose a choking hazard.
FAQ 6: How long does it take to get them made and installed?
We have the fastest turnaround time in the industry for our custom outdoor screens. They can be custom-made in as little as two weeks. Once they are ready, we will call you promptly to schedule an installation appointment that works with your schedule.
FAQ 7: How do I get started?
We offer free, no-obligation design consultations. To get started, request an appointment and we will call you shortly to schedule. A design consultant will come to your home to look at your outdoor space and present a design that will work best.
