Comfortable outdoor spaces are more important than ever in homes, restaurants, healthcare settings, and more. Easily create inviting outdoor spaces that are protected from the sun, wind, rain, and even
insects with Draper outdoor shades.
Not only do outdoor shades protect from the elements, they help bring a sense of calm to your outdoor spaces. Shades provide an extra layer of sound resistance and can hide or reduce the visual impact
of surrounding structures or movement.
Extend your home or business space
Set up outdoor work spaces, elegant areas for entertaining, or relaxing niches on decks and outdoor rooms. Retractable shades can be lowered to provide protected areas for eating, chatting, working,
and other activities.
No need for costly renovations – you can add outdoor shades to existing covered patios, garages, or pergolas to help keep your spaces comfortable and inviting year round. Outdoor shades with side
channels keep out rain, reduce noise, and control climate and glare. With outdoor heaters or fans, make use of your spaces all year. Insect resistant fabrics even help keep out the bugs.
Stretch the outdoor hours and season
Make your outdoor spaces usable for more hours each day, and for more days, weeks, and months each season. Get the most out of your investment in residential spaces, or even increase profitability of
your outdoor bar and dining areas. Simply put, comfortable customers stay longer.
Control the temperature; save money
Install outdoor shades on your home’s windows to control the temperature and save on climate control costs. In summer, outdoor shades can reduce the temperature of a space by as much as 20 degrees,
and can cut 74% of solar heat while still maximizing natural daylight.
Block the effect of UV rays
The sun’s rays can be harmful. Outdoor shades block these ultraviolet rays and save your outdoor space from the aging, fading, and decaying look of sun rot. Also look for fabrics that have earned the
Melanoma International Foundation Seal of Approval.
Increase privacy
During the day under direct sun, outdoor shades allow you to utilize your spaces in comfort without feeling like you’re on display. With direct sun hitting your shades, your neighbors won’t have a
direct view to you, but you’ll still be able to see the view around you.
Add to the beauty of your home or business
Outdoor shades are customizable and tailored to your needs. Choose from thousands of fabric colors and textures, or select a printed solution that is color-matched to your specifications. Printed
options include solid colors, repeating patterns, your own custom artwork, or company logos. Your imagination is the only limit.
