How Does a Roller Shade Work?

How Does a Roller Shade Work?A roller shade, also known as a retractable blind or screen, can be a great addition to a window or patio to let you control how much of the sun’s light and heat to allow into your home at any given time. Many homeowners prefer to have easily operated retractable screens installed so that they can enjoy shade or sun when they want it without expending a lot of effort on rolling the fabric up and down. In fact, with a motorized, remotely operated roller shade, a homeowner can simply touch a button to lower the screen when the sun becomes annoying or raise it to let in more light, all without getting up from his or her chair.

Essentially, the value of retractable screens lies in the convenience of rolling the mesh fabric in and out of its housing as desired. The housing for retractable shades may be mounted to a wall or, in the case of an outdoor patio, a soffit system. Proper installation of retractable screens is key to their reliable performance, which means professional installation by trained and experienced technicians is recommended. If you are planning to have a roller shade installed, you’ll also want a screen that’s custom-manufactured to fit the opening you want to shade, so that your home will sport the sophisticated look of a tailored fit and also to ensure optimal performance. Again, that means hiring professionals to take precise measurements and determine the best placement of your retractable shade to give you the results you’re looking for.
