Solar and Sunscreen Shades

Solar and sunscreen shades in open-weave fabrics that cut glare and heat while keeping much of the outside view, for sunny rooms, home offices, kitchens and glass-heavy spaces.

Solar shades use an open-weave fabric that blocks part of the sun while letting you see out. They are a smart choice for sunny rooms and screens. Homeowners in Nashville choose them for home offices, family rooms and kitchens with big windows.

Solar fabrics come in different openness levels. A tighter weave blocks more light and heat, and a more open weave keeps the view clearer. We explain how to choose by room, window direction and what you want to see, and we show samples against your own light. We measure, order, mount and test the shade, with options for cordless and motorized lifts, and we explain that privacy changes at night. Openness is the number that matters most with solar fabrics. A lower number blocks more sun and keeps more privacy, while a higher number lets in more view and light. We bring samples at different openness levels and let you look through them at the real window. Seeing the view through a fabric is far more helpful than reading about it.

Choose the openness

Tighter weaves block more light and heat, and open weaves keep the view clearer, and we compare samples.

Consider the window

Direction, size and use change which fabric works, and we match them.

Understand privacy

Solar shades give daytime privacy outside-in, and at night you may want a second layer.

Install with care

Brackets, fascias and lifts are set so the shade rolls straight and looks neat.
