Skylight Shades in Columbus, OH
Skylights are wonderful until a summer afternoon turns the room below into an oven. Skylight shades tame the heat and glare while keeping the daylight you put the skylight in for.
We install InsolRoll custom skylight shades for homes, and solar shading for larger overhead glass in commercial buildings. The owner measures every skylight and installs every shade.
How they work
Custom panels for any skylight
Custom fit
InsolRoll makes custom shade panels to fit any skylight or overhead glass opening.
Fixed solar shades
Spring tension rods at the top and bottom hold the fabric in place, with intermediate rods for longer openings.
Seasonal
Fixed skylight shades can be removed in winter if you want the extra sun for warmth.
Fabric choice
Made from InsolRoll interior fabrics, from textured decorative weaves to easy-clean commercial fabrics.
Commercial
Overhead glass in commercial buildings
Atriums, lobbies, and glass roofs can make a space uncomfortable with heat and glare. InsolRoll fixed solar shades are a lower-cost alternative to motorized overhead systems for controlling both. See commercial window treatments.

Common questions
Skylight shade questions we get asked
Can you put a shade on a skylight?
Yes. InsolRoll makes custom skylight shade panels that fit the opening and are held by spring tension rods at the top and bottom, with extra rods for longer glass.
Will a skylight shade make the room dark?
Not with solar fabrics. They cut heat and glare while still letting natural daylight through.
Can skylight shades be removed?
Yes. Fixed skylight shades can be taken down seasonally, for example in winter when you want the extra sun for warmth.
How much do skylight shades cost?
Price depends on the size and number of skylights and the fabric. You get a written, firm quote after a free in-home consultation.
