Roller Shades In Belton
Roller & Solar Shades in Belton, MO
Roller Shades with a solar screen fabric are the simplest way to take the afternoon glare off a Belton family room. Open lots off MO 58 put nothing between your windows and the sun, and our Solar Shield Blinds Roller Shades cut the glare on the TV and roll up out of sight when you want the yard back.
Where It Fits In Belton
Where Roller Shades and solar shades fit in Belton
Most Belton homes sit on open ground with full sun for much of the day, so the question is which fabric and which operating system, and our Design Specialist helps you answer both.
- Picture windows in Bel-Ray EstatesThe mid-century ranches in Bel-Ray Estates put one big window on the street side. A 3% screen keeps the room bright, cuts the glare on the TV, and gives you daytime privacy from the street.
- Patio sliders on sunny lotsMost Belton patios are uncovered, so the slider takes sun all afternoon. Magnetic hold downs keep the shade flat against the door, and it rolls up clear of the handle.
- Great rooms in Autumn RidgeThe newer homes in Autumn Ridge have taller windows in the family room. A motorized shade on a schedule comes down over the west glass before anyone has to reach for it.
- Kids' rooms and playroomsCordless Lift and PowerWand keep the chain off the wall in kids' rooms, and they're the options Belton families ask us about first.
Worth Knowing
Measuring older Belton windows and picking a solar screen
Many of Belton's older windows have had fifty years or more to settle, and plenty of the openings we measure are a little out of square. That matters for a Roller Shade, because the fabric hangs straight even when the frame doesn't. Your Design Specialist measures every opening on site, top and bottom, so the shade is built to the window you have. In the newer homes around Autumn Ridge the frames are square, and the bigger question is width, because a wide family room window is a good fit for a motor.
Start with how much you want to see out. A 10% solar screen keeps a clear view across the yard and takes the edge off the glare, and a 3% screen gives you daytime privacy from the street. Light filtering and decorative fabrics give full privacy day and night, and blackout fabric is for bedrooms. We have thousands of fabrics to choose from, and we bring the samples to your kitchen table. Operating systems are Standard Chain Loop, Cordless Lift, PowerWand and Motorized, and a cassette or fascia can cover the roll at the top.
Every Roller Shade has a small light gap down each side, so a bedroom that has to be fully dark needs blackout fabric with side and bottom channels, and we'll point that out at the consultation before you order. The visit is free, the quote is itemized, and the price holds for 180 days. Interior shades take 4 to 6 weeks from order to install, and our own full time Install Techs clean up, take the packaging, and walk every room with you. Our team also works in nearby Grandview and Raymore.

Straight Answers
Roller Shades questions from Belton homeowners
Yes. Screen fabrics are made for this kind of sun, and our Carefree Guarantee covers the fabric with a lifetime warranty. On an open lot with no tree cover we recommend a tighter openness on the west and south windows and a more open screen on the north, where the light is softer.
Yes. Sliding doors are one of the best places for a Roller Shade, and on an uncovered Belton patio the door is the hottest opening in the house. We use magnetic hold downs so the shade sits flat and stays put when the door is in use, and a wide slider is a good candidate for a motor.
Yes, because we measure each opening instead of going off a standard size. Settled frames are common in Belton's older homes, and a Roller Shade built to the actual opening hangs straight even when the casing is a little off. The quote you get at the consultation is for the exact shades we'll install.
Yes, Cordless Lift and PowerWand cost a little more than a Standard Chain Loop, and the size of the window, the fabric and the top treatment also change the price. Your itemized quote shows the difference window by window, so you can put cordless in the kids' rooms and a chain on a high window.
No. Our typical lead time is 4 to 6 weeks from order to final installation, and most Belton projects are finished in one installation day. We put free paper temporary shades on every window you ordered for while you wait.
Yes. Raise it and the whole shade rolls into a three inch roll at the top of the window, and a cassette or fascia can hide the roll completely. On a Belton ranch with one big front window, the room is open in the morning and shaded in the afternoon.
