          Rain resistance?
          ByJun 30, 2026
          1 Answer | 
          Answer This Question

          Thank you for your question. Coolaroo roller shades are designed for outdoor use and are made from durable, weather-resistant materials that can withstand normal exposure to rain and moisture. However, we recommend allowing the shade to dry completely before rolling it up to help prevent mildew, staining, or premature wear and to maintain optimal performance. If you have any additional questions about care, maintenance, or installation, please contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-560-4667 or coolaroo.info.us@galepacific.com. We're happy to help!

            what is the dimension of the short mounting flange of the end unit bracket?

            2 Answers | 
            Answer This Question

            The wording of the answer is confusing. See photo below. Focus on the surface of the bracket that is screwed into the wall or ceiling. The small end of the L-shaped bracket. What is the Length and Width of that small end surface?

            By|Jun 25, 2026

              Hi Scotty, Thanks for reaching out! The short mounting flange on the end unit bracket for the Coolaroo roller shades is approximately 1.5 inches in depth (projection from the mounting surface) and about 2 inches in height,

                    Disappointed
                    The reviews look good but I was disappointed. The fabric allows too much light to penetrate through. You can actually see through them.

                    Response from CoolarooSupportJul 2, 2026
                    Thank you for your feedback. We're sorry to hear that the shade did not meet your expectations.
                    Coolaroo shade fabrics are designed to reduce heat and glare while still allowing airflow and filtered natural light. Due to this open-weave design, some visibility and light penetration are expected. We understand that customers may have different expectations regarding light reduction, and we're sorry that the product did not provide the level of coverage you were looking for.
                    We appreciate you taking the time to share your experience and will pass your comments along to our product team. If you have any questions about the product, please contact our Customer Service team at 1-800-560-4667 or coolaroo.info.us@galepacific.com.

                      Problem idle end clips - Beware of cheap plastic
                      We took our shades down to have the house painted, which should have been a simple re-installation. It was not. There are small plastic clips in the "idle end" of the shades that holds the roller pin onto the bracket. When we went to put them back up, the first clip snapped off. This was the sunniest side, so I removed the clip from the second blind to swap into the spot of the failed piece, but even very carefully pushing the pin end in, the second clip snapped. When I called Cooleroo they directed me to a page on their website offering the clips at $1.71/ea, which ended up costing $13.41 to get the clips. I think that part is susceptible to failure, so be warned not to remove your blinds. Ours are mounted where there is no direct sun under a porch roof, so this was not UV damage, just cheap plastic. Otherwise, the blinds have been operating well, so it's a sad shame that there is such a weak point of failure. I ended up cutting a rubber washer and cramming it in to wedge the broken clip into the proper holding position until I receive the needed part. Maybe the rubber washer fix will be better anyway. I need a new shade for another spot and will see what else is available rather than buy a Cooleroo shade that just wasted a ton of my time.

                        The Coolaroo shades have worked perfectly to diffuse afternoon sun on our patio. The price is great and they are easy to install.
                        by
                        For someone who needs very severe sun blockage and don't wish to raise and lower shades fairly often these are perfect. For someone like me who wants to see the landscape outside of the windows they are shading and wants to raise and lower them often these were not good. They let in light but don't let me see the trees outside. Also these hand cranks require 65 full turns to raise and lower. With 7 shades every day is like a trip to the gym! Coolaroo used to make a version with better see through and a cable that made it quick and easy to raise and lower. They lasted 18 years. I wish they still had options but I have a lot of wishes.

                        I bought these exterior shades for the south and west facing windows of my home, to help keep my house cool on hot days. I do not have AC. I find that if I open up the house in the early morning to cool it down, then shut all doors and windows and lower the exterior shades, my house stays comfortably cool throughout the day. (I also close the interior blackout curtains, as an additional measure.) I like that the shades let light in and provide some view out of the window even when closed. .

                        This is a very useful and long-lasting shade. We have a total of six of these blocking UV rays and excessive heat surrounding our screened-in back porch and sun-facing windows. Just added one more today, and it's well-worth the money in energy savings, privacy, wind-blockage and ease of use. I could sell these out of the trunk of my card with enthusiasm alone!

                        Coolaroo Shade with Pergola
                        When we added our Pergola we found out we needed something to block the afternoon sun. We installed the Shade on the inside the Pergola because we couldn’t attach because the 96 inches width.

                          Best investment & minutes to install
                          Best investment for our porch. We have a screened in porch but when moving all the furniture in the middle was a pain before rain storms. We purchased patio drapes but the wind blew those everywhere. We hung up shower curtains for warmth in the winter and to keep out the rain but they got ugly and it got old opening and closing. These coolaroos are the best. Very simple to install and minutes to roll up and down. Not only do they provide shade but they keep out the rain perfectly. Wish I knew about it these sooner:
