Questions
Retractable Shade Systems FAQ
What's the difference from motorized shades?
Motorized shades are one type of retractable shade. Retractable systems also include manual crank and spring-roller options.

How long does fabric last outside?
Outdoor shade fabrics are made for UV exposure. Ask about the warranty on the specific fabric you choose.
