Exterior Patio Shades we install in Grand Prairie

Poolside shades

Shade over seating rather than water, specified for chlorine exposure and constant sun.

Solar screen shades

An open weave that cuts glare and heat while you keep the view out to the yard.

Motorized patio shades

Remote, wall switch, app or schedule. On a wide span this is what makes them get used.

Retractable shades

Roll up out of the weather, keeping fabric out of wind and hail.

Track guided patio screens

Fabric runs in side channels so it does not billow, and the edges seal.

Porch and outdoor room shades

Enclose a porch so it stays usable through the hottest part of the day.

What moves the price of exterior patio shades

  • Track guided systems, which add hardware and installation time
  • Span of the opening, which drives hardware and motor sizing
  • Fabric openness, since a tighter weave costs more per square foot
  • Whether you motorize, and whether it is battery, hardwired or solar

We measure the openings and quote from those measurements. The number on your estimate is the number you pay.

Exterior Patio Shades questions from Grand Prairie

Do you install exterior patio shades in Grand Prairie?
Yes. Durrell Glick runs Love Is Blinds DFW, which covers Grand Prairie along with Fort Worth, Denton, the Mid-Cities, Southlake, Grapevine, Coppell and Granbury. The person who measures your windows is the person who fits them. Call (866) 518-2999.
Do they keep rain out?
They cut sun, glare and some wind driven spray. They are not a wall, and a track guided screen seals better than a free hanging shade.
What colour fabric should I pick?
Darker fabrics cut glare and preserve the view. Lighter ones reflect heat but scatter light, which can make glare worse.
How long do outdoor shade fabrics last?
Longer if they are retracted when not in use. Sun and wind are what age them, not time.
What openness factor should I choose?
It depends which way the space faces. A west facing patio taking full afternoon sun wants a tighter weave. A north facing porch can take a more open one and keep more of the view.
Should I motorize them?
On a wide span, usually yes. A large exterior shade is heavy to crank by hand, and motorized shades come up far faster when the wind turns, which is what protects the fabric.
How much do exterior patio shades cost in Grand Prairie?
It depends on the size of the openings, the material and the options you choose. We measure every opening on site and quote from those measurements, so the number on your estimate is the number you pay. The consultation is free.
