Roller and Solar Shades
Cut glare and heat without losing your view. Book a design visit.
Roller shades are a single piece of fabric that rolls up neatly at the top of the window. They give a clean, modern look and come in fabrics that range from sheer solar screens to full blackout.
In Milton, afternoon sun on west-facing windows can make a family room uncomfortable and put glare right on the TV. Solar screen roller shades cut that glare and heat while keeping much of your view of the yard.
Georgia Blinds brings fabric samples to your home so you can hold them up to your own windows and see how much light each one lets in.

The fabric does most of the work. Solar screen fabrics are measured by openness, which is how much light and view they allow. Light filtering fabrics soften the light and add privacy. Blackout fabrics are made for bedrooms and media rooms. Many homeowners combine options, such as solar shades in the living areas and blackout shades in the bedrooms, for a consistent look throughout the house.
Solar screens reduce glare and heat while keeping your view. They are a favorite for family rooms, kitchens and sunrooms. Darker fabrics usually give a clearer view out, while lighter fabrics reflect more heat.
Light filtering fabrics soften daylight and add daytime privacy. Rooms stay bright without feeling exposed. They come in many textures and colors to suit your decor.
Blackout fabrics block light for better sleep and better movie nights. They are popular in bedrooms, nurseries and media rooms. Side channels or careful mounting can reduce light gaps at the edges.
A dual shade puts two shades on one window, such as a solar shade for daytime and a blackout shade for night. It is a good fit for bedrooms that also get strong afternoon sun.
Roller shades can be cordless or motorized. Motorization makes sense for tall windows and for shades you raise and lower every day. See our Motorized Shades page for more.
