Mount Type ?
Mount Type
Inside mount means the window coverings will be mounted and hung on the inside of the window frame. Not recommended for shallow windowsills. Outside mount means the window coverings will be mounted and hung outside of the window frame or on the ceiling, making it ideal for shallow windowsills or for more complete light blockage by reducing the halo effect.

How They'll Help You

You love your new front room furniture, but you’re worried that the harsh rays of the sun are going to prematurely age and fade them. And what about the glare coming in the window when you’re trying to watch the news toward the end of the day? Traditional Solar Shades show you the reason solar shades were invented, and they are the answer to your incoming glare problems. Block harmful UV rays and protect your furniture for years to come with these budget-friendly window coverings. Sharp- looking, too! With regular opaque roller shades, you get good sun blockage, but lose outside visibility.

Discover the magic in the reliable sun and heat blockage provided by the flame-retardant solar screen fabric. Don't worry. You are still being allowed a wide, open view outdoors with 3%, 5%, or 10% varying degrees of openness. Increased openness means increased visibility, with slightly decreased UV blockage (keep in mind that an openness factor of 10% still blocks out 90% of incoming UV rays, while improving your outdoor view). These solar shades are made in the U.S.A., and are Greenguard Gold certified to provide the architectural standard for maintaining indoor air quality.

The bottom rail comes fabric-wrapped, and as far as the headrail is concerned, choose from an optional headrail, a color-coordinated semi-open cassette with a fabric insert (cassette is aluminum with plastic end caps), or a minimalist look with an open roll. Plus, these solars are super kid- and pet-friendly, as they come standard with cordless lift. You can also upgrade to Eve MotionBlinds™ motorization, which allows you to operate your shade with a pull wand, a remote, and Apple Homekit™ Technology. Perfect for your home. Perfect for your budget. The solars are available in a wide range of colors (including neutrals). Choose your color to accent and complement your home’s décor. These shades are an energy-efficient and protective designer choice you’ll be happy with for years to come!

Great quality



Ordered two solar shades (one brown and one black) for two new replacement windows. The colors ordered were just as pictured. I followed the measurement directions when ordering and these fit perfectly. Installation was a breeze. The shades are of a nice quality mesh fabric. I love that we have privacy and protection from UV light when shades are drawn yet can still see through. I will be ordering more from Select Blinds! .

Satisfied Customer



Pros: truly great assortment of options and custom sizing; excellent mobile phone interface, entire order can be configured on a smart phone; status updates come frequently; quality seems good but we’ve only had the blinds a week or so; quite quick delivery; can be self-installed Cons: installation instructions that come packaged with the product are far too brief; what should have been a quick install was not because no instructions are provided for plastic covers that apparently go over the mounting bracket… but are totally useless on an inside mount configuration

Very nice



Very happy with the Traditional and Lifestyle solar shades. The quality and finished installed product is nice looking. I only wish I would have gotten the motorized. My mistake..I ordered the samples first so I could see and feel before ordering.

Absolutely love the blinds! We have large windows so lots of sun so these help keep the sunlight out but we can still see outside. The quality of these is top notch! The delivery was very fast. We were informed when it went into production and when it was shipped. So east to install! Can’t wait to replace all my other blinds!
