Tensioned Shades

Tensioned shade

Tensioned shades provide solutions for skylights and angled windows. The innovative design from Lutron keeps fabric panels taut and parallel to windows with minimal sag at a variety of slopes. Lutron tensioned shades reduce light gaps around fabric, and maximize the view when opened by eliminating cable guides that are typical in skylight shades. The frame may be surface mounted, inside mounted, or recessed while still allowing easy access to update the fabric.

Mounting Options

Lutron tensioned shades can be installed with surface, inside, or recessed mounts.

*Surface mount recommended for skylight applications only
