AN OUTDOOR SHADE SHOULD BE RETRACTED IN WINDY CONDITIONS
(More than 10-15 mph.)
Our outdoor shades are built to last. Custom manufactured to your exact specifications, all our outdoor shades are triple locked to rust proof rollers with spring loaded clips and then sealed with a weatherproof bonding to protect against the elements.
Our outdoor shade fabrics are engineered to withstand years of outdoor use. These outdoor fabrics are fade and flame resistant, remain stable under hot and cold temperatures, have an extra layer of biocide to inhibit the mold and mildew, and comes in extra wide widths to reduce the need for seaming.
Brackets are marine grade with a rust proof powder coating. They come in your choice of black or white. For corrosive salt water exposure we recommend upgrading to our Dacromet brackets.
Rollease Exteriorrated clutches in matching black or white, have stainless steel internal springs to avoid rust. Super Clutches are automatically added to large shades to reduce the effort required to lift heavy shades.
Chains are UV resistant and won't break down. Chain lengths are 3/4's of the way down the shade.
Outdoor shades are constructed with a heavy duty aluminum weight bar at the bottom to prevent fraying. This bar comes in white, black, bronze or anodized and is secured to the welded bottom weight pocket. Extruded Aluminum Weight Bars at the bottom of the shade are available in anodized, bronze, black, white and attica beige.
Self tapping stainless steel D Rings are included with each shade to tie it down. Also available are optional custom 8" bungee cords. Secure bungee cords to the D Rings as shown in the photo to minimize how much the shades move in windy conditions. We can custom manufacturer bungee cords to the length you need.
An optional cable systemon each side of the shade helps stabilize the shade movement in windy conditions and can also serve as a tie down for motorized shades.
Optional Side Rails are offered in 6 colors.Side Railsare 2" wide and 3/4" deep. Side rails lock down the bottom bar of the shade only. There is a 1/4" gap between the side of the fabric and the beginning of the side rails so the fabric will not blow out. Side rails require a level, even mounting surface (not more than 1/4" shim is acceptable) and the purchase of the aluminum housing.
Optional 4" aluminum housing in 6 matching colors hide the roller and are recommended for motorized shades. Housing mounts either to the face of a beam or the underside of a beam. If the drop is more than 132" our 5 1/2" aluminum housing must be used.
L shaped fascias are available to hide the front of the roller. They can be side mounted. Some light can come through these as they are not a sealed box.
A reverse roll to hide the roller is offered at no charge.

Remotes are pre-programmed at the factory.
All remotes are pre-programmed at the factory. Each channel is set to a corresponding shade, you merely need to set the limit stops of the shade.
