Block UV rays & reduce glare while preserving your outdoor views
Solar shades are the ultimate solution for Halifax rooms with too much sun and glare. Unlike traditional shades, solar shades block up to 99% of UV rays while still letting you see outside — protecting your furniture, floors, and skin without darkening the room.
At Blinds Concept, we offer solar shades in openness factors from 1% (maximum glare reduction) to 14% (maximum view-through). Halifax homeowners with south- and west-facing windows love how solar shades eliminate screen glare while preserving their views.
Solar shades also reduce cooling costs by blocking solar heat gain. Available in motorized options for whole-home automation. Visit our Halifax showroom to see and feel our full collection, or schedule a free virtual consultation.
Every Solar Shades order for Halifax is made to measure. We measure each opening in millimetres, confirm mount type and control side, and manufacture to that specification — so the finished blind fits the window instead of being trimmed to fit.
How it works in Halifax: book a free consultation, we bring the full sample range to your home, you compare fabrics and opacities in your own light, and you receive a fixed written quote the same visit. Production runs two to four weeks, then we schedule delivery or installation at a time that suits you.
Maritime windows are hard on window coverings — salt air, condensation and long low winter sun. For Halifax homes we recommend moisture-tolerant materials for bathrooms and kitchens, insulating cellular or lined options for exposed north and west elevations, and solar or light-filtering fabrics where glare on screens is the problem rather than privacy.
Pricing is factory-direct with no measure fee, no design fee and no minimum order, and every Solar Shades order is covered by our manufacturer warranty on fabric, hardware and motors.
Cost depends on window size, fabric and control type. Because we sell factory-direct there is no showroom markup, and your consultation includes a fixed written quote for every opening in the home before you commit.
Yes. We measure, manufacture and install throughout Halifax and the surrounding area, operating from our Halifax and Charlottetown locations.
Two to four weeks from the day the specification is confirmed, then delivery or installation is booked at your convenience.
