A113 No Drill 5% Openness Solar Shades with Large Tube (38mm)

A 5% openness factor means the fabric weave allows 5% of light to pass through. It is widely considered the ideal balance for solar shades, as it effectively filters harsh glare and blocks harmful UV rays while still allowing a soft, natural glow into your room and maintaining a view of the outdoors.

Our No Drill shades feature a high-tension, pressure-fit mounting system. This mechanism creates consistent lateral force against the interior of your window frame, ensuring a secure, non-slip installation that stays firmly in place without the need for drills, screws, or wall anchors.

The 38mm large tube provides superior structural rigidity compared to standard 28mm tubes. This is critical for preventing the roller from bowing or sagging on wider windows, ensuring your shade rolls up and down perfectly straight and operates smoothly for years.

No. Our mounting brackets are equipped with premium, non-slip, protective pads. These pads distribute pressure evenly across the frame to ensure a firm grip without leaving scratches, dents, or marks, making them perfect for rental properties or delicate custom window frames.

5% solar shades provide excellent daytime privacy by masking the view from the outside. However, at night, when interior lights are on, silhouettes may be visible from the outside. If you require total night-time privacy, we recommend layering these with blackout curtains.

Yes. By filtering solar radiation before it enters your home, these shades act as an effective thermal barrier. They help keep your space cooler during the summer, reducing the load on your air conditioning and improving overall energy efficiency.

Yes. The larger tube diameter provides greater mechanical leverage, resulting in a much smoother, quieter, and more responsive rolling action. It feels significantly lighter to operate, even as the shade covers larger or wider window spans.

For an inside mount, measure the precise width of your window opening at the top, middle, and bottom, and use the narrowest measurement. Ensure your frame has at least 7cm or 2.76 inches of depth to accommodate the tension-mount brackets securely. View Our Step-by-Step Measurement Guide.
