MOTORIZED EXTERIOR ROLLER SHADES

Broadening our expertise in internal roller shades to the building exterior, Hunter Douglas Architectural's motorized external roller shades provide excellent control of glare and thermal gain. Our high-performance exterior fabrics remain colorfast, resist damage from water and heat, remain dimensionally stable, and are resistant to rot. Motorized external roller shades can be controlled by switch or automated control system. Heavy-duty headrails, bottom rails, and side guides are engineered to withstand adverse weather conditions.
