The Grande Solar ShadesTMfor heavy duty outdoor use are the ultimate in strength and durability because they are constructed to accommodate such oversized dimensions. Made to exacting standards with components that will not rust, corrode or mold they ride up and down on extra heavy duty stainless steel cable guides that allow the shade to be positioned at any desired height without the need for tie downs. Custom manufactured to your exact specifications, these heavy duty outdoor transparent shades cut heat, glare and fading of outdoor furnishings, turning patios, decks, porches, pergolas, lanais and gazebos into comfortable living spaces. Their mesh fabrics allow air to pass through for ventilation. They provide daytime privacy with full vision out. Outdoor shades with tighter weaves extend the summer by protecting outside areas from cold breezes and also provide shelter for plants. All fabrics contain Microban, a biocide to inhibit the growth of mold and mildew. Add a safe heater and stay nice and cozy.

HEAVY DUTY CONSTRUCTION
Heavy duty outdoor shades are mounted on 3 1/4" heavy walled rollers to prevent sagging.
Fabric is secured to the heavy duty roller with sturdy splines and sealed on the ends to prevent sliding.
Bottom weight bar is chrome plated stainless steel with an internal steel rebar for extra strength sealed inside a sonically welded pocket. This bar has hardened stainless steel eyelets on each end that allow it to ride up and down on cables.
Cable Guide System, standard with every outdoor shade, is constructed of reinforced stainless steel aircraft cable with a UV coating. This holds the shade in place without the need of tie down loops. Cables come 2 feet longer than the shade height you order. Let us know if you need them longer.
Cable bottom has turnbuckle to maintain cable tension. Shades can be lowered to 6" from the floor. The turnbuckles can also be mounted to the top if you want full coverage to the floor. The shade will not go up the last 6".
2" wide Side Railsare available in 6 colors that match the head boxes. Maximum dimensions for Side Rails are 180" wide x 192" high. (Side Rails lock the shade down at the bottom, the fabric stops 1/4" before the Side Rail so the wind will not blow the shade out of them. A third alternative to tie the shades down is the bungee cord system but this is the least effective against the wind. The Cable system is the preferred and sturdiest for windy conditions. Contact us for pricing.
Optional: powder coated 5 1/2" roll formed aluminum housing to hide rollers available in 6 colors (recommended for motorized shades for additional rain proofing). When measuring add 5 1/2" to your opening height to account for this box.
Extra wide reinforced fabrics have welded edges. All fabrics contain Microban, a biocide to inhibit the growth of mold and mildew.
