Protect your home and maximize your outdoor living space with professional-grade solar shading. Our outdoor roll shades are engineered to block intense heat, stop UV damage, and slash your energy costs—all while maintaining your view of the Texas landscape.
Standard indoor blinds can’t stop solar heat once it has already entered your home. Our outdoor roll shades stop the sun before it hits the glass, reducing heat transfer by up to 90%. This “exterior-first” approach is the most effective way to keep your patio usable and your interior cooling bills low. Designed with high-tenacity solar fabrics and heavy-duty hardware, these shades are built to survive the Texas sun while providing the comfort of an indoor room, outdoors.
Texan Glass & Solar Control has spent over two decades perfecting exterior shading solutions that stand up to the humidity, wind, and heat of the Texas Gulf Coast.
Not all outdoor shades are created equal. Our installation process focuses on structural integrity and fabric tension, ensuring your shades stay secure during local breezes and look sleek for years to come. Watch our team demonstrate how we mount these systems to brick, siding, and wood structures to create a seamless, built-in look for any Houston or Woodlands home.
Stop your patio from feeling like an oven. Our exterior shades create a thermal barrier that can lower surface temperatures by 20°F or more instantly.
UV rays destroy outdoor furniture, rugs, and even interior flooring. Our shades act as a sunscreen for your home, filtering out harmful rays without blocking your air circulation.
By shading your windows from the outside, you reduce the workload on your HVAC system, leading to noticeable savings on your monthly energy bills.
Texan Glass & Solar Control provides professional consultation and expert installation for all outdoor roll shade projects, with free estimates available online or by phone.
