DRAPER FLEXSHADE MOTORIZED INDOOR SHADES
The Draper FlexShade is the benchmark for residential motorized roller shades. Quiet, precise, and built to last — FlexShade motorized indoor shades run on Somfy RTS radio frequency motors with battery, low-voltage DC, or hardwired AC options. Choose from hundreds of fabric colors, textures, and opacity levels: sheer solar fabrics that reduce glare while preserving your view, room-darkening fabrics for media rooms and bedrooms, or full LightBloc blackout for complete solar control. Every shade is custom-made in the USA at Draper’s Spiceland, Indiana factory.
DRAPER FLEXSTYLE CASSETTE WINDOW SHADES
The FlexStyle Cassette is Draper’s premium enclosed roller shade — the fabric rolls inside a sleek aluminum cassette housing that completely conceals the shade when raised. The result is a clean, architectural look that disappears into your ceiling or window frame. Available with Zigbee smart home integration, battery-powered motors with no hardwiring required, or hardwired low-voltage systems. Compatible with Alarm.com, Savant, Control4, Google Home, and Amazon Alexa for seamless whole-home automation.
SOLAR SHADES FOR ARIZONA WINDOWS
Arizona’s intense UV index damages furniture, flooring, and art faster than almost anywhere in the country. Draper solar shades block harmful UV rays before they reach your glass — reducing heat gain, protecting your interior, and cutting cooling costs — while maintaining your outward view. We offer a full range of openness factors from 1% to 14%: tighter weaves for rooms facing direct western sun, more open weaves where you want to preserve views with moderate glare control. Available in manual roller, motorized, or fully automated configurations.
OUTDOOR & PATIO SUN SHADES IN PHOENIX AZ
Phoenix summers push temperatures past 115°F and UV levels that make an unshaded patio unusable for much of the day. Draper exterior motorized shades are engineered specifically for outdoor conditions — UV-stabilized PVC-coated polyester fabrics, powder-coated aluminum hardware, and motors rated for outdoor temperature extremes. Drop a shade and your patio transforms from a sun-blasted slab into a cool, comfortable outdoor room in seconds. Raise it and the view is completely open. Planet Geek installs custom outdoor shades on pergolas, covered patios, pool decks, outdoor kitchens, and commercial storefronts throughout the Phoenix metro.
DRAPER EXTERIOR MOTORIZED SHADES
Draper’s exterior shade line is purpose-built for the demands of outdoor installation. Heavy-duty sealed roller tubes, corrosion-resistant aluminum side channels, and weatherproof motor housings stand up to Phoenix’s heat, monsoon wind, and blowing dust. The fabric blocks up to 95% of solar heat gain — reducing your patio surface temperature by as much as 15 degrees — while still allowing airflow and outward visibility. Wind sensors can automatically retract shades when gusts exceed a set threshold, protecting your investment even when you’re not home.
SMART HOME SHADE INTEGRATION
Every shade Planet Geek installs is integration-ready. We program your Draper motorized shades into your Alarm.com, Savant, Control4, or Lutron system so they respond intelligently — rising with the sunrise, dropping automatically when the afternoon sun hits a west-facing room, closing when you leave, and setting the perfect ambiance for movie night with one button press. Sun sensors and timers can automate the entire system without you touching a remote. Shades become part of your home, not an afterthought.
ENERGY SAVINGS & UV PROTECTION
Properly specified motorized shades are one of the highest-ROI upgrades a Phoenix homeowner can make. By blocking direct solar gain before it reaches your glass, Draper solar and exterior shades reduce HVAC load significantly during Arizona’s 6-month cooling season — with many homeowners reporting measurable reductions in monthly energy costs. At the same time, UV-blocking fabrics protect hardwood floors, furniture, artwork, and window treatments from fading that would otherwise require costly replacement within a few years.

MOTORIZED SHADES FAQS
How much do motorized shades cost in Phoenix?
Every shade is custom made to the window, so pricing depends on the size of the opening, the fabric you choose, the motor type, whether the shade is indoor or exterior, and how many windows you are covering. We provide a quote after a free on-site consultation and measurement.
Do motorized shades actually reduce cooling costs in Arizona?
Blocking solar gain before it reaches the glass reduces HVAC load through Arizona's six-month cooling season. Draper exterior shades block up to 95% of solar heat gain and can lower patio surface temperatures by as much as 15 degrees.
What is an openness factor, and which one should I choose?
Openness factor describes how tightly the solar fabric is woven. We offer 1% through 14%: tighter weaves for rooms facing direct western sun where glare control matters most, and more open weaves where you want to preserve the view with moderate glare reduction.
Do motorized shades have to be hardwired?
Not always. Draper FlexShade and FlexStyle systems are available with battery powered motors that require no hardwiring, as well as low-voltage DC and hardwired AC options. We recommend the right option based on window access, shade size, and how often the shade will cycle.
Will motorized shades work with my smart home system?
Yes. We program shades into Alarm.com, Savant, Control4, or Lutron, and FlexStyle cassette shades offer Zigbee integration compatible with Google Home and Amazon Alexa. Sun sensors and timers can automate the entire system without a remote.
What happens to outdoor shades during monsoon wind?
Exterior shades use sealed roller tubes, corrosion-resistant aluminum side channels, and weatherproof motor housings. Wind sensors can retract the shades automatically when gusts exceed a set threshold, even when you are away.
What is the difference between FlexShade and the FlexStyle cassette?
FlexShade is Draper's standard residential motorized roller shade. FlexStyle rolls the fabric into a sleek aluminum cassette that conceals the shade completely when raised, giving a cleaner architectural look.
Can motorized shades fully block light in a media room?
Yes. Fabric options range from sheer solar fabrics that cut glare while preserving the view, to room-darkening fabrics and full LightBloc blackout for media rooms and bedrooms.
Which cities do you install motorized shades in?
We install throughout the Phoenix metro, including Phoenix, Scottsdale, Chandler, Gilbert, Mesa, Paradise Valley, Tempe, Peoria, Glendale, Queen Creek, Fountain Hills, Cave Creek, Ahwatukee, Sun Lakes, and San Tan Valley.
