When the sun beats down on a beautiful patio, comfort is the first thing to go. In this El Dorado Hills home, a luxury back porch with scenic views needed a way to beat the heat without losing the charm. The answer? Apollo’s Sunblock Power Shades — built for homeowners who want control, comfort, and clean design at the push of a button.
This high-end home featured a west-facing covered porch where the homeowners loved to unwind in the evenings — until the sun made it unbearable for hours at a time. They wanted a solution that wouldn’t block their view, would operate easily, and blend in with their home’s clean architectural lines.
We installed three custom-fitted motorized shades across the span of the porch, each tailored to the exact dimensions and color palette of the home. Discreet side tracks and a recessed mount kept the setup low-profile and sharp.
Every Apollo install starts with precision. Our factory-trained technician measured each opening to ensure a perfect fit. Once the shades were built, the install took just a few hours. The shades were hardwired into the home’s system, and programmed for remote operation — no apps to fumble with, no guesswork.
When we were done, the customer hit one button — and silence. The shades lowered smooth and steady, blocking glare without blocking the view.
Sun protection without the cave feel – UV rays and heat stopped cold, while the outdoors stayed beautifully visible.
A breeze without the blast – The mesh allows air flow, keeping it cool without wind tunneling.
No strings attached – One-touch remote control makes using the space feel effortless.
Clean design, nothing bulky – Shades disappear into the frame when not in use.
Better evenings outdoors – Dinner and conversation now happen comfortably outside, every evening.
