A116 3% Openness Fine-Texture Solar Shades with Small Tube (28mm)

A 3% openness factor is the industry gold standard for balance. It allows 3% of sunlight to pass through, effectively diffusing harsh glare while maintaining a clear, comfortable view of the outdoors. It is perfect for living rooms and home offices where you want natural light without the eye strain.

Unlike basic, industrial-looking vinyl shades, our 'Fine-Texture' finish features a tighter, matte-woven aesthetic that resembles high-end interior textiles. This refined texture reduces the 'plastic' appearance and adds a sophisticated, tactile quality to your window treatments.

The 28mm small tube is specifically engineered for a sleek, low-profile fit. It is ideal for window frames with limited mounting depth (recessed windows), ensuring a clean, minimalist installation where standard 38mm systems would look too bulky or protrude beyond the frame.

3% solar shades offer excellent daytime privacy—people outside cannot see into your home, but you can still see out. Please note that at night, when interior lights are on, the effect reverses. For full nighttime privacy, we recommend layering these with curtains or selecting our blackout options.

For an inside mount, measure the precise width of your window opening at the top, middle, and bottom, then use the narrowest measurement. Ensure your frame has at least 6cm or 2.37 inches of mounting depth to accommodate the compact bracket and roller assembly securely. View Our Step-by-Step Measurement Guide.
