Your Patio Is a Second Living Room — Outdoor Shades Make It Usable
In a city that boasts 300 days of sunshine, your outdoor living space should be your favorite room in the house — but the high-altitude sun and afternoon heat can drive you back inside. Exterior patio shades block UV and radiant heat before it reaches you, cut glare, and add privacy, turning a sun-baked patio into a comfortable outdoor room. And because Denver’s extreme temperature swings — dropping 40 degrees in hours — punish low-quality shades, our premium collections are backed by industry-leading warranties to ensure they never warp, fade, or crack under the intense Mile High sun.
Available manual or motorized with sun sensors, and installed to a flawless fit by Mark and Julie Ham. Whether you have a modern deck or a mountain-view patio, we help you reclaim your outdoor space. (Note: these provide sun, heat, glare, and privacy control — they are not code-rated storm shutters.)

Frequently Asked Questions About Outdoor Shades in East Denver
Will outdoor shades hold up to Denver's temperature swings?
Yes — Denver’s extreme swings, dropping 40 degrees in hours, punish low-quality shades, so our premium collections are backed by industry-leading warranties to ensure they never warp, fade, or crack under the intense Mile High sun. They’re built specifically for this climate.
How much cooler do exterior patio shades make an outdoor space?
Exterior solar shades can drop your patio’s ambient temperature significantly by blocking UV and radiant heat before it reaches you. In Denver’s high-altitude sun, that’s often the difference between a patio you avoid in the afternoon and one you use all day.
They also cut glare and add privacy while preserving your view.
Are these storm shutters?
No. Our outdoor shades, screens, and awnings provide sun, heat, glare, and privacy control, but they are not code-rated storm shutters. If you need certified storm protection, we’re happy to point you in the right direction.
