Inside mount blinds and shades are mounted inside the window frame. This option provides a clean, custom look and is considered the most popular choice. This is a great option if you do not wish to cover the window moldings.
Outside mounted blinds and shades are mounted outside the window, on your wall or molding. This option can make a window appear larger. It is also a solution if the window does not meet the depth requirement for an inside mount.
Effortlessly lift oversized or heavy shades with ease and convenience. The continuous loop stays the same length, while the cord tensioner keeps cords securely in place, improving safety for children.

Product Overview
Graber Exterior Solar Shades are designed for patios, pergolas, decks, and other outdoor spaces where sun protection, privacy, and heat reduction are critical. These shades block up to 99% of sunlight, providing unmatched glare reduction and UV protection. Not only do they reduce solar heat gain and lower your cooling bills, but they also offer an attractive way to control light without obstructing your view.

Each option changes how the shade looks and performs based on mounting preference and sun angle. Whether you need a clean, flush finish or enhanced coverage, both orientations are available with valance upgrades.
