With the beautiful weather of spring and summer here, and all of the outdoor activities and gatherings that come with the warmer weather, we have a lot to celebrate. And in Montana, we share some of the most beautiful landscapes not only in the country, but in the world, so being able to get back out there and soak up some fresh air is certainly appealing. But you don’t need to travel all the way to Glacier National Park to enjoy the scenery. In fact, you can enjoy the great outdoors from the comfort of your home.

At The Blind Guy, we are here to help you make the most of your home’s outdoor spaces, and we have exactly what you need to do that with outdoor patio shades and awnings from Insolroll® and Sunesta®.

Custom Awnings

We can get a lot of sun here in Montana, and that sun has its own share of drawbacks. Continual sun exposure can overheat you and your family, in addition to the heat, the harmful UV rays can also bleach, warp, or fade your outdoor décor.

One great solution is a custom awning from Sunesta®. These are some of our favorite summer exterior shadings. Awnings can transform your deck, patio, or entryways to help keep the sun off when you need it, but also have the added benefit of allowing you to protect your furnishings from the sun’s harmful UV rays, so you can always enjoy your outdoor spaces or keep your indoors shaded.

Retractable Insect Screens

We all love the great outdoors, but there are some features that aren’t so great. One of the biggest downsides to being outside is the bugs. On top of being annoying, some bugs—notably ticks and mosquitos—can carry illnesses that can have serious impacts on the health of you and your family. This is why patio shades, including Oasis® 2900 Solar Insect Shades by Insolroll® are some of our favorite summer exterior window treatments. We all count on our window coverings to bring us style and functionality, but we really love the way that retractable insect screens can bring you that while also keeping you and your family safe. Their zipper seal secures around all four edges of an inside track, keeping out all unwanted guests to your next deck barbeque.

Indoor Solar Shades

Awnings and exterior shades aren’t the only window treatments we have to offer. In fact, you can still enjoy the same UV protection from the inside of your home with Hunter Douglas Designer Solar Shades. Hunter Douglas crafts sturdy, durable screen shades that are the perfect addition to a covered patio or other outdoor space. These bring you the same light control you already know and love from Hunter Douglas, with the addition of imbuing your indoor space with privacy and UV protection that will complement the awnings and patio shades you’ve installed outdoors.
