SmartDrape™ Shades: The Perfect Indoor-Outdoor Solution for Colorado Living
What are SmartDrape™ Shades? > SmartDrape™ shades are a revolutionary "hybrid" window treatment that combines the soft, elegant look of drapery with the functional light control of vertical blinds. In Colorado, they are the premier choice for large patio doors and floor-to-ceiling windows because their unique individual-vane design allows you to walk through the shade even when it’s closed—perfect for seamless indoor-outdoor entertaining in the Rockies.

Why Colorado Homeowners are Choosing SmartDrape™
In Colorado, our sliding glass doors are the gateway to the outdoors. Traditional plastic vertical blinds are often noisy, fragile, and dated. SmartDrape™ is the premier modern alternative designed for the Front Range lifestyle.
- Silent & Wind-Resistant: Unlike PVC slats that clatter in the breeze, SmartDrape’s soft fabric vanes are completely silent—perfect for breezy afternoons in the foothills.
- True Indoor-Outdoor Flow: Forget fumbling with cords to let the dog out. The individual-vane design allows you to walk through the shade at any point, even when it's closed.
- Elevated High-Altitude Style: Replaces the "office" look of old blinds with the elegant, soft texture of custom drapery that complements Colorado’s natural wood and stone architecture.
SmartDrape™ changes the game.

From Patio to Peaks: The "Walk-Through" Revolution
1. Seamless Walk-Through Access
Whether your home opens up to a deck in Castle Rock or a patio in Colorado Springs, SmartDrape™ allows you to pass through any part of the shade without needing to pull it open. The individual fabric vanes move aside and fall right back into place.
2. Versatility for the High Desert Sun
Colorado’s 300+ days of sunshine can be harsh on furniture. SmartDrape™ features two distinct modes:
- Sheer Mode: Softens the intense Colorado sun while maintaining your mountain or garden views.
- Privacy Mode: A simple twist of the wand rotates the vanes to provide total privacy and light blockage.
3. Built for the Active Colorado Lifestyle
- Washable Vanes: From trail dust to pet hair, life happens. You can easily unclip individual fabric vanes and toss them in the washing machine.
- Child & Pet Safe: Our cordless design is certified "Best for Kids," providing peace of mind for families across the Front Range.
- Durability: Engineered to withstand the temperature swings common in the Pikes Peak region, from snowy mornings to sunny afternoons.
