Product Details

Blindsgalore Solar Shades

Top Features & Benefits

  • Our best-selling traditional solar shade
  • Timeless commercial-style solar screens designed for performance
  • Maintains your view while helping reduce solar heat gain
  • Perfect for rooms that receive direct sunlight
  • Helps protect interiors against harmful UV rays to reduce fading
  • Can lower cooling costs by limiting heat build-up in warmer months
  • Ideal for high-sun areas without sacrificing your view

Materials & Construction

  • Openness factor: from 1% (more privacy) to 14% (more view)
  • 1" aluminium roller tube for strength and durability
  • Top treatment options: No Valance (exposed roller) or Cassette with fabric insert
  • Bottom rail: No bar heat-sealed hem or upgrade to a decorative metal hem bar
  • Fabric tip: White fabrics help reduce heat gain but may increase glare; darker colours improve view-through while reducing glare
  • Design tip: No Valance shades show a more visible light gap at the top—choosing a Cassette Valance is recommended for the cleanest finish

Why Choose Blindsgalore Solar Shades?

  • Trusted best-seller for bright, sun-exposed rooms
  • Helps shield your home from UV damage while keeping your view
  • Energy-efficient choice that can help reduce cooling costs

Control Options

Cord Loop with Chain Guard

  • Durable beaded chain & clutch system paired with a Chain Guard for added child safety
  • Chain height: approximately 1/2 of the shade height
  • The clear Chain Guard covers the continuous cord loop to help meet Canadian child-safety expectations. In its resting position, only a short length of chain remains exposed at the top. To operate the shade, gently lift the Chain Guard and use the exposed chain as usual. When you’re done, lower the guard again to keep the chain covered and out of reach.

Cordless Options

  • Traditional Cordless: spring action raises and lowers the shade smoothly
  • Cordless Plus: enhanced cordless glide for more precise placement (Cassette Valance required)

Rechargeable Motorized Wand

  • Push-button wand control with an integrated rechargeable battery
  • Wand length is typically about two-thirds of the shade height (12"–60" options)
  • One charge typically lasts 6–8 months; charger sold separately
  • Note: Not upgradeable to remote or smart-home control

DIY Installation

Blindsgalore Solar Shades include all required mounting hardware and step-by-step instructions. Installation is straightforward, whether you choose an inside or outside mount.
