Outside & Exterior Shades in Miami & South Florida

Exterior shades intercept sun, wind and rain before they reach the glass, which is far more effective than any interior fabric. They turn a hot patio or balcony into usable space and cut the heat load on the rooms behind them.

Why homeowners choose our outside shades

  • UV-stable mesh and corrosion-resistant hardware suited to sun and coastal exposure
  • Manual crank or motorized with wind and sun sensors
  • Retract out of the way when a storm is forecast
  • Insect and privacy screening for lanais and balconies

Outside & Exterior Shades — questions we get asked

Will exterior shades survive a storm?
They are built for daily sun, wind and salt, and they retract into the housing. We recommend retracting them ahead of any named storm — they are shade, not hurricane protection.
Can exterior shades be motorized?
Yes, with optional wind and sun sensors that retract automatically when gusts pick up.
