Kaua’i Exterior Solar Shades

Extend the living space of your home and connect with nature comfortably. With the addition of Exterior Solar Shades, your lanai can also be protected from intense sun, excessive heat and harmful UV rays. Exterior solar shades also block the sun before its rays reach the glass panes and impact the interior. Have them mounted directly outside of your home's window frames for an inconspicous look.

Since these shades tend to be larger and installed in higher, harder-to-access areas, they pair perfectly with a motorized lift. The light streaming in to your patio can be controlled with the touch of a button.

One of our favorite aspects of solar shades is the level of privacy they provide while maintaining a degree of your view, depending on which level of visibility you choose.
 


Motorized Insect Screens

How Retractable Insect Screens Work

Sun & Insect Control

Sealed with SHY Zip® zipper technology to keep out mosquitoes. The Oasis 2900 system, manufactured by Insolroll, seals all four sides of the screen when lowered, providing on-demand insect protection. Retractable Insect Screens can be fully retracting when you don’t want a screen. They can be completely up, completely down, or at any point in between - all at the press of a button. When bugs are not a problem, enjoy the open air, but when dusk falls and mosquitoes come out, put your shades down.  Be comfortable, with a full view of your outdoor surroundings AND without being bothered by bugs! These shades also provide a level of UV protection and relief from the heat of then sun.


Kaua’i Roller Shades

The Beautiful Simplicity of Roller Shades

Simply put - Roller Shades are awesome. They are an ideal treatment for Kauai and let me tell you why. They are nothing like the roller shades of yesteryear that would go slamming up to the top when released.  In these modern times, the cordless roller shade may be released and it will slowly rise up to the top, or be adjusted to whatever height you desire. Motorization is also available..you can even use rechargeable batteries that only need to be rotated every 2 years, under normal use. Motorization is ideal for those hard to reach windows and in commercial applications. There are a wide variety of materials that can be used in this practical application. Many mold and mildew resistant materials look as if they are made of natural fibers, leaving you with a treatment that can weather the climate and fit in with the decor. This style of material can also be used in a sliding panel application for sliding doors, which allows you to coordinate with the rest of your space.

Beat the Heat

What's on Your Windows?

Window treatments add a detailed, finished look to your space...but there is another added benefit that comes along with a variety of styles you may choose from- energy efficiency!

Whether you prefer Draperies, Shutters, Roman Shades, Dual Shades, Cellular Shades, Solar Shades or a combination of styles, window treatments can reduce heat gain by up to 45%.

 

Cellular shades are a popular choice for energy efficiency. The honeycomb design provides an extra layer of insulation between the window and your living space.

Twin shades provide even greater efficiency. For maximum effect, place a highly reflective (white) shade on one side and a heat absorbing (dark) shade on the other side.

Solar shade fabrics come in a variety of weaves, which permits different levels of light and UV rays to pass through. Choosing a larger weave and darker fabric allows for a clearer view of the outside and less light on the inside. A lighter toned fabric results in cooler inside temperatures.

Roman shades offer a wide variety of styles and materials to choose from.They are a practical and stylish choice for added insulation.

Shutters work well for directing the sunlight to the upper levels of the space. Using the adjustable louvers angels the light to the ceiling, encouraging the heat to rise and improving overall ventilation. Greater insulation may be achieved by combining shutters and another treatment, such as draperies.

Draperies. Depending on the material you choose, how many layers are added and the colors of the fabric, draperies can be a wonderful choice for helping to keep your space cooler.
