Our Premier 1% Solar Screen Roller Shades are the ultimate solution to intense sun management, maximum glare reduction and UV protection without losing your connection to the outdoors.

Engineered from a commercial-grade, outdoor-ready composite material, these shades block 99% of harmful UV rays while allowing minimal light transmission and a soft exterior view. Custom-made for a precision fit, they are equally at home in a sun-drenched residential media room as they are on an enclosed outdoor patio.

Why Choose Premier 1% Solar Shades?

  • Maximum Glare Control: The tight 1% weave provides the highest level of UV protection, heat reduction, and glare control, making it ideal for home offices and home theaters.
  • Indoor & Outdoor Durability: Crafted from a heavy-duty 30% polyester / 70% PVC blend, these shades are engineered for superior color fastness and are resistant to fading, moisture, and harsh weather conditions.
  • Certified Safe & Eco-Friendly: Greenguard Certified to meet strict indoor air quality standards. The fabric is flame retardant, non-toxic, and completely free of formaldehyde and lead.
  • Versatile Styling: Choose from a wide range of modern, neutral colors designed to seamlessly coordinate with any interior or exterior design scheme.

Understanding 1% Openness

The "openness factor" determines how tightly the fabric is woven. A 1% openness means that only 1% of the fabric is open, offering our tightest weave available in a solar shade.

  • The Benefits of 1%: This provides the absolute highest level of daytime privacy, UV protection (blocks 99%), and glare reduction. It is the perfect choice for south-facing and west-facing windows that take the brunt of the afternoon sun.
  • Color Matters: Darker fabric colors provide the best glare control and the sharpest view to the outside. Lighter colors are more effective at reflecting heat away from the window.

Explore Other Openness Levels in the Premier Line

If you love the Premier material but want a slightly different balance of view and privacy, explore the other options in this collection:

  • Premier 3% Solar Screen Roller Shades (High privacy, limited view)
  • Premier 5% Solar Screen Roller Shades (Moderate privacy, softened view)
  • Premier 10% Solar Screen Roller Shades (Good visibility, clear view)
  • Premier 14% Solar Screen Roller Shades (Maximum visibility, best view)

Solar Shades vs. Light Filtering: Which is right for you?

While both options manage natural light, they serve very different functional purposes:

  • Solar Shades (The "Sunglasses" View): Made with a mesh weave to preserve your view while blocking UV rays. Ideal for living areas and offices where you don't want to feel "boxed in."
  • Light Filtering Shades (The "Soft Glow"): Made with solid, translucent fabric. They do not allow a view to the outside; instead, they diffuse sunlight into a soft, private glow throughout the room. Browse our range of light filtering shades here.

Comparison: Solar Shades vs. Light Filtering Shades

Use the table below to determine which window treatment best suits your room's light, privacy, and view requirements.

Feature Solar Shades Light Filtering Shades
Primary Purpose Preserve view and block UV/Heat Soften light and provide privacy
View to Outside Excellent (like looking through sunglasses) Blocked (translucent fabric)
Light Control Filters natural light & reduces glare Diffuses light into a soft, warm glow
Daytime Privacy Moderate (varies by openness %) High (blocks shapes and figures)
Nighttime Privacy None (lights inside allow visibility) Partial (only shadows/silhouettes visible)
Best For Living rooms, sunrooms, and home offices Dining rooms, entryways, and bathrooms

Note: If you require 100% total privacy and darkness at night (for a bedroom or nursery), we recommend exploring our Blackout Roller Shades.

Custom Fit & Finishing Options

Tailor your Premier Solar Shades to fit your exact functional and aesthetic needs:

  • Roll Direction: Choose a Standard Roll (fabric falls closer to the glass) or a Reverse Roll (fabric falls over the front of the tube) to match your room's layout.
  • Optional Upgrades: Finish your look with a sleek cassette valance and coordinating fabric insert (available for standard roll only) to hide the hardware.
  • Manufacturing Tolerances: Please note there is an allowable manufacturing tolerance of +/- 1/8" for both width and height.

Important Note on Privacy

Solar shades are designed for daytime light and heat management and do not offer nighttime privacy. When lights are on inside at night, there is inward visibility. For 24/7 privacy, we recommend pairing these with drapery or a secondary window treatment.

Pro Tip: To truly feel the durability of the composite material and see how the 1% openness looks in your home's unique lighting, we highly recommend ordering free samples before you buy.
