Does solar screens block out all the light? How much does it cost to use motorize blinds?
I want to block the light from two high ceiling windows but still able to see the outside. Does solar screens block out the light completely? How much does it usually cost for two solar blinds in high ceiling? Motorize blinds cost a fortune at Home depot at Lowes (they told me starting at $400 each with $118 installation fee). Any suggessions?
Solar screen comes in varying degrees of light blockage,…from 0 to 20% openess,….they are not the cheapest application available, but they are effective in blocking light and heat. Motorization alone does cost approx $550.00 retail from my company as well,.. including installation. That's plus the cost of the blinds.
What is your measurement?

Without knowing what it looks like in your house, this could be a decent price. This can be a cheaper alternative:

This is a thin film that is placed over the windows that blocks heat-generating UV rays, but allow view in and out. There are versions that you can put in yourself.
