Designer solar shade opacity rating and openness values

Opacity is rated on a numbered scale from 1 (most see through) to 4 (most room darkening). Openness Factor values refer to the size of the screen grid—the lower numbers represent smaller grids with more protection.

During your consultation, we’ll walk through how much coverage you need in each room and recommend fabric opacity and openness to match. Designer Solar Shades are available in 5 different levels of openness:

1% Open
99% UV protection with the most privacy.
3% Open
Noticeable views outside with strong UV control.
5% Open
Balanced for glare control and clear views.
10% Open
Lets in more light and preserves the view.
14% Open
The most open views with 81% UV protection.
