Exterior shades will greatly reduce harmful UV rays, blinding glare, and keep you cool to enjoy the great outdoors with total energy efficiency and convenience.


At Evolved Habitat, we provide and install a full line of motorized shades throughout Northeast Wisconsin. Connect with us today with any questions regarding heavy duty outdoor shades.


Outdoor shades provide protection from errant golf balls and a level of privacy from nearby neighbors. Making your patio area safe and private is what the Oasis brand is all about. Dense solar screen fabric weaves provide excellent daytime privacy. Light colors screens provide the best privacy.


With a unique track system that practically zips you inside, safe and comfortable on your patio at dusk, the Oasis Patio Insect Shade accomplishes both—blocks excessive heat and harmful UV rays while also sealing out insects.


We have insect-only fabrics that provide low sun protection, as well as a wide range of materials that provide top-notch sun protection AND keep insects away! Because the screen does not impede the view, you can still enjoy the sunset.

Oasis 2800 Patio Shades Driven By Lutron

Sun management for covered patios and pergolas is provided with Oasis 2800 Patio Sun Shades. Choose a sidetrack or cable guide system that does not grasp the fabric's edges but instead interacts with the hem bar to control sway in windy circumstances.


When the outdoor living space is in use, the Oasis 2800 Patio Sun Shades are meant to provide shade from the sun and should be retracted when not in use. These blinds have a maximum size of 16′ wide x 10′ high.


Oasis 2900 Retractable Insect Screens Driven By Lutron

Oasis 2900 Retractable Insect Screens provide insect protection for covered patios, garage door openings, and retractable glass walls.



  • The edges of the fabric are captured by our Shy-Zip side track system. The Shy-Zip system serves to keep pesky insects out and also secures the fabric in windy conditions.
  • A soft pile strip seals the top of the shade so insects cannot enter from behind the roller
  • A flexible gasket seals the bottom of the shade, compressing to close uneven surfaces.


Oasis 2900 System is available with fabrics for insect protection only or with alternative fabrics to provide additional sun control, privacy, and patio enclosure benefits.


Motorized Shades for Easy, Convenient Operation

The convenience of motorization offers on-demand shade with one-touch operation as well as control by scenes, scheduling, voice control, and mobile device control.


Lutron Control Options

  • Simple wireless switches and transmitters for standalone applications, RadioRA2® or Caséta wireless lighting control systems
  • Complete integration with Lutron HomeWorks


How Retractable Insect Screens Work

Mosquitoes, no-see-ums, and other bugs are kept out with the Oasis 2900 Motorized Retractable Insect Screens, which are sealed with SHY Zip® zipper technology. When the screen is lowered, the Oasis 2900 system seals all four sides of the screen, offering on-demand insect protection.


When you don't want a screen at all, retractable insect screens can be entirely retracted.


Patio Insect Shades Provide Sun Protection and Keep the Bugs Out

On your patio, insect shades allow you complete control over both insects and the sun. Bugs are a concern on the patio, but so is too much sun. With your choice of solar screen shade fabric, the Oasis 2900 Solar Insect Shade will keep insects out while concealing the sun's heat and glare while maintaining your view.

Sun Protection

The percentage of UV rays that pass through the cloth is also affected by its openness. UV is invisible, but it causes sunburns, fading wood floors, cataracts, and other eye disorders. As long as the shade is down, it protects patio furniture and people from UV rays. It's also easy to see how much protection fabric provides. A ten percent open fabric blocks 90% of UV, a three percent open fabric blocks 97 percent, and a one percent open fabric blocks 100%.


The sun’s energy is experienced as heat, light, and UV (ultraviolet) rays. We feel heat, see light, and UV rays are damaging to our skin and eyes, as well as patio furniture and surfaces. 


Solar screen fabric is designed and woven to control glare, heat, and UV rays with precise percentages of fabric openness. Fabric color also affects sun performance, with darker fabrics blocking more glare, and lighter fabrics blocking more heat. 

We offer a complete selection of denser solar screen fabrics ideal for sun protection and insect control.


  • Specialty Insect Screens
  • Solar Screen fabric for combined insect and sun protection
  • Translucent fabrics for privacy
  • Water-resistant, zero openness fabrics for extending the patio season


Insect Protection

Outdoor insects might make it difficult to enjoy your patio if you live near a lake or other body of water. The 4-sided seal of the Oasis 2900 Retractable Insect Screen keeps bugs out. Mosquitoes, gnats, moths, and biting midges are just a few examples. (If your pergola has an enclosed roof, such as a ramada, this will only operate.) When insects are at their worst in the late afternoon and early evening, lower the retractable screen to sit comfortably. Better yet, lower the screen before the bugs appear to avoid trapping them inside. Raise the screens when bugs aren't an issue and enjoy your open-air patio once more!



Oasis 2900 Retractable Insect Screens provide insect protection on large window, patio, and garage door openings up to 19′ wide by 14′ tall in a single screen. Protect yourself, guests, and family from Zika Virus, West Nile Virus, and other insect-borne illnesses.


Retractable Insect Screens are Ideal for Open-Air Living Spaces

Homes and even commercial spaces that want to bring the outdoors in can benefit from retractable glass walls. When needed, insect protection is provided by motorized screens. This restaurant patio has a series of enormous garage doors with Oasis 2900 shades that can be open to the outdoors when the weather permits, completely closed from insects at night, or anywhere in between.

Mosquitoes, no-see-ums, and other bugs are kept out with the Oasis 2900 Motorized Retractable Insect Screens, which are sealed with SHY Zip® zipper technology. When the screen is lowered, the Oasis 2900 system seals all four sides of the screen, offering on-demand insect protection.


When you don't want a screen at all, retractable insect screens can be entirely retracted.

Diners are shielded from the sun and insects depending on the time of day.


The flexible gasket strip along the bottom rail is designed to seal over uneven surfaces like a garage floor, allowing you to putter in the garage, work on a classic vehicle, or do any other chore while still enjoying the fresh air and a view with a link to the outside.
