Hunter Douglas Designer Screen Shades near Seattle, Washington (WA) and other custom summer window coverings.

Best Shades for Summer

If you’ve been stuck with generic shades from the department store, you’ve been missing out. Did you know you can get shades you can install on your porch or that can move on their own? When you swap out your old window coverings for custom shades, you can transform your entire home.

Designer Screen Shades will be a fantastic choice for adding beautiful style and flexible light control to your outdoor spaces. The light-filtering fabrics are also incredibly durable, which will allow them to last for years during all seasons. These stylish solar shades also look great in rooms like kitchens, dining rooms, or any space you want better UV protection and softer light.

Custom sheers and shadings, like Sillhouette® Window Shadings, are also perfect summer window treatments. Since the middle of the summer sees consistent sunshine in the Seattle area, you’ll want some relief from the heat without compromising your beautiful views. Thanks to the clever arrangement of sheer fabric and opaque vanes, you can enjoy your views while getting rid of glare.

Best Shutters for Summer

Custom shutters work great for keeping sunlight in check while still enjoying a pristine glow of natural light in your home.

And when it comes to summer shutters, the ideal choice is Palm Beach™ Polysatin™ Shutters. Made from heat and moisture-resistant material, you won’t need to worry about your shutters getting any sort of damage during the summer. You can even install these custom shutters outdoors all year long.

You’ll also love the effect these shutters have on the style of your home as well. The louvers are available in four white colors and the surface provides a subtle reflectiveness that makes the most of your natural light. Plus, you can control your sleek summer shutters using PowerView® Automation.

Best Blinds for Summer

Another great window covering solution for improving sunlight in your home is custom blinds. There are some fun surprises to discover when you explore Hunter Douglas blinds, including options like deLight™, a system that covers up cord holes for better privacy and a more streamlined look.

If you’re hoping to optimize sunlight, be sure to check out Modern Precious Metals® Aluminum Blinds.
