Exterior Solar Shade Solutions

Defend Your Space From Sun and Glare
Exterior solar shades reduce heat and glare while allowing filtered light and airflow. They create cooler, more comfortable outdoor environments without sacrificing natural light.

Custom Exterior Solar Shades

Designed to Fit, Engineered to Perform

Motorized and Remote-Control Options

Smarter Shade, Simple Operation

Weather-Resistant Durability

Built for Wind, Water, and Wear

Exterior shades must endure wind, sun, and moisture without fading, tearing, or losing alignment. Our products use UV-resistant fabrics that maintain structure and color after prolonged exposure. Side track and cable-guided systems add tension to reduce sway and wear in breezy conditions. Corrosion-resistant components—like powder-coated aluminum and marine-grade fasteners—enhance longevity, especially in humid or exposed zones. Keystone Group LLC prioritizes material matching based on elevation, exposure, and sun angle to ensure every shade is tailored for performance in open-air conditions.

UV Protection and Energy Control

Block Heat, Save Comfort

Exterior solar shades act as the first barrier between sun and structure. By stopping UV rays before they hit glass or patio flooring, they prevent heat buildup inside and outside. This reduces reliance on air conditioning in adjacent rooms and enhances comfort for people using the space. Specialized fabrics reflect or absorb solar radiation while maintaining visibility outward. Keystone Group LLC helps you select shading density based on orientation, shade coverage goals, and ambient brightness, ensuring the right balance of heat control and natural light.

Versatile Installation Options

Solutions for Every Outdoor Setup

Roll-Down Shades for Patios and Porches

 These vertically deployed shades attach to beams or headers, offering reliable shade and UV control for open areas without permanent enclosure.

Side-Track Systems for Wind Resistance

 Designed with edge-retention channels or cable tension systems, these shades reduce movement and enhance stability in breezy outdoor conditions.

Balcony or Second-Story Window Coverage

 Exterior solar shades can be installed on upper-level windows or open balconies to cut heat and glare without obstructing airflow or views.

Exterior Shade Panels for Sliding Doors

 Shade panels over sliding doors enhance visual comfort, block heat before it reaches glass surfaces, and add privacy to transition areas.

Performance That Lasts Outdoors
01

UV-Stabilized Exterior Fabrics

Fabrics are engineered to withstand sun exposure, resisting fading and maintaining integrity even in continuous direct sunlight.
02

Corrosion-Resistant Shade Hardware

All brackets, housings, and tension systems use rust-resistant materials to perform in outdoor humidity and weather cycles.
03

Low-Friction Roller and Track Systems

Neutral, Contemporary Color Options

Material palettes complement most exterior finishes, with choices in earth tones, greys, and whites to match modern or traditional designs.

Outdoor Privacy and Light Filtering

Comfort Without Closing Off Views

Exterior solar shades offer privacy while allowing filtered daylight. The right weave density ensures visibility from inside out while obscuring outside-in views—ideal for daytime privacy without fully blocking the experience of outdoor space. Keystone Group LLC helps balance opacity levels based on your privacy needs and the natural lighting of your environment. These shades are particularly useful for porches, balconies, and open-concept patios where full enclosures aren’t practical but where visual comfort and seclusion are still valued.
