Why Choose Solar Shades
Utah gets more sun than most states. That's beautiful for the mountain views, but the light coming through is hard on furniture, hardwood floors, and upholstery. UV fades color, weakens fibers, and turns rich wood pale. Over time, it adds up. Also, if the sun is too bright for you to see out, how good is the view anyways?
Solar shades are woven with a special openness that blocks UV and reduces glare without turning your west-facing window into a dark wall. You still see outside. The view is still there. You just get protection and comfort.
On west-facing windows especially, where afternoon sun peaks between 1 and 5 pm in summer, solar shades make the difference between a comfortable room and one that overheats and glares.
Different Weaves for Different Needs
Solar shades come in four openness levels. The tighter the weave, the more UV and glare it blocks, and the less you can see through. Pick the right openness for your window direction and privacy needs.

Guided by Ashley, Installed By Us
West Shade Co is not a big-box installation service. Ashley Ivie founded this company in 2020 after 20 years of residential interior design because she kept watching clients get the wrong window coverings (wrong scale, wrong material, wrong function) from people who were selling products instead of solving design problems.
Every project starts with a free in-home consultation. Ashley brings samples to you. She measures every window herself. The shades are ordered to your exact specifications and installed by our team from start to finish. We carry Alta and Graber, two of the best shade manufacturers in the industry, and offer a Manufacturer's Lifetime Warranty on all products.
We serve South Jordan, Draper, Sandy, West Jordan, Riverton, Herriman, and surrounding areas in Salt Lake County.
The quality and professionalism of West Shade Co. is exceptional. I highly recommend.

Choosing the Right Openness for Your Roo
How a window is used changes what shade makes sense. A west-facing bedroom has different needs than a west-facing living room. A view of the Wasatch Range is worth protecting differently than a view of a neighbor's fence.
At your consultation, you'll look at the options together, if you have a mountain view you want to keep, you can choose an openness level that preserves it while blocking UV. If afternoon heat is the main issue, a darker weave may be the better fit. Ashley walks through the trade-offs so you can make the call that's right for your space.
All solar shades can be motorized with Control 4 integration. Set them to close automatically during peak afternoon sun, then open as evening cools. It's comfort and protection on a schedule.
