Explore The Texadia Guide to Motorized Patio Shades That Transform Your Outdoor Experience

We’ve written about motorized window shades on the Texadia blog before, but always in the context of the indoors. But motorized shades aren’t only for interiors—you can bring comfort and shade to the patio, porch, and any outdoor living area. 

So how do outdoor shades work—and why should you invest in them for your Dallas home? Let’s discuss. 

And if you’re ready to talk to a motorized shading installer, contact Texadia Systems in Dallas here! 

Motorized Shades That Perfectly Fit Patios & Porches 

Wouldn’t it be nice to spend more time outdoors? Rather than eating breakfast at the kitchen table, what if you brought it to the patio or porch? Instead of working remotely in the office, you could bring your laptop into the fresh air of the backyard. 

This often seems like a great idea—until mosquitoes nip at your ankles, direct sunlight burns into your forehead, and your patio seat is covered with pollen dust. 

Thankfully, there's a way to enjoy the comforts of indoor living in the great outdoors, and that’s with outdoor motorized shades. With a tap of a button, you can lower light-filtering shades that make your space more enjoyable while still enjoying fresh air and nature views. 

Draper is one of our preferred partners for outdoor shades, and we specifically appreciate its FlexShade ZIP model, which uses an automatic ‘zipping’ feature to keep shades secure. Here’s why Draper outdoor shades and the FlexShade ZIP design stand out among other shading products on the market.

A Look at Coastal Source’s New Razor Speakers

Coastal Source has long been a significant player in the outdoor audio industry. Its satellite and bollard speakers are built to endure all weather conditions while blending into natural landscaping.

Our Tips for Better Outdoor Audio 

Wouldn’t you love to play your favorite albums and playlists outdoors this spring and summer? But if you only own a portable speaker, you may find it’s not strong enough to project sound across the lawn. Most portable speakers’ audio quality is thin, lacking the musical details you can hear indoors. 

To play music loud enough outside, many homeowners crank the volume, hoping it will reach all ends of the yard. But anyone standing near the stereo will experience deafening sound, and the audio may not extend as far as you’d hoped. 

Luckily, there is another way. Weatherproof outdoor speakers can stay mounted outdoors all year long, so you can enjoy music outside anytime. Here’s how to get the best outdoor audio in your Fort Worth, TX, backyard. To learn more, contact Texadia Systems here. 

Through Rain or Shine, The Terrace Displays Brilliant 4K Definition

There are a handful of reputable outdoor TV manufacturers on the market, but today we’ll be looking at Samsung’s The Terrace, a display built exclusively for the outdoors.
