This innovative product category solves light control needs in a transformative way, with fabric vanes between or in front of a delicate sheer fabric. Fabric vanes of different design either tilt or fold to allow more or less light flow and privacy. With the option of vanes closed or open, as well as shade up, down, or in-between, sheer shadings offer a wide range of sun, view, and privacy control with the soft beauty of fabric. Soft, adjustable fabric vanes that "float" between two sheer fabric panels beautifully diffuse harsh sunlight.

When it is bright and sunny, sunglasses reduce glare and make it easier to see. Solar shades work the same way when looking out windows. Solar shades control glare, heat and UV rays while balancing natural light, privacy and mountain views, making them the best choice for large commercial and residential windows. Solar shades made with a solar screen woven mesh fabric, allow natural filtered light into a room while controlling glare. A densely woven solar screen shade (3%-5% openness) reduces unwanted glare while providing a view-through connection to the outdoors.

We are motorization specialists, skilled, experienced, and knowledgeable in the latest technology for smart, connected or stand alone motorized blinds. We offer motorized blind and shutter products by Hunter Douglas and Graber, as well as motorized shades by Insolroll, Hunter Douglas, and Lutron.

Raising and lowering the blinds must be done manually with a standard cordlock or spring operator.

Our commercial roller and solar shades allow Colorado businesses to control glare, heat, and UV rays while balancing natural light and a view of the outdoors. We've been designing and installing commercial roller and solar shade solutions for offices, restaurants, retail stores, hotels, hospitals, schools and more since 1980. Innovative Openings began manufacturing solar shades and roller shades in 1983, having identified the significant energy impact and positive commercial environmental effects of this innovative class of window covering.

Hunter Douglas Fabric and PVC vertical blinds have been one of the most popular patio door solutions. Verticals can stack to the side opposite the operable sliding glass door with a one-way draw or stack to both sides on 9' patio doors with the center door being operable. Either way, vertical blinds provide privacy and light control. Louvering vertical slats create their own pattern and texture when opened to various levels, but the range of available colors and textures in this versatile window treatment can't be overlooked!

Bring home the best of both worlds: shutters that evoke the slow-paced graciousness of a by-gone era, yet stand up to the wear and tear of today's high-energy lifestyle, beautifully.

You don't have to choose between personalized function and fabric choices that make your heart sing! Beautiful alone or when paired with drapery treatments, Insolroll Elements roller shades can set a tone or create a mood in any room. This range provides fabrics with different looks and functions for different kinds of spaces. Though we refer to "opacity" levels, this quality really means two things: how much light passes through the fabric, and how visible are objects on the other side of the fabric.

Typical windows can account for up to 25% of your home's heat loss. Innovative Openings has specialized in insulated shutters and shades since 1980, and has multiple solutions. Some heat is transferred through the window frame and the spacer bars between the glass via conduction. R-value becomes the most important measure of heat loss through these windows. An insulated window shade that adds an R-value of 2 will cut the heat-loss through a double glazed window (approximately R-value = 2) by 50%.
