This slideshow represents our recent efforts to transform the Smashburger at the Tempe Marketplace. This was an interesting project.  The windows had old roller shades left in place from the previous tenant, but due to electrical conduit and outlets, they elected not to cover the top portion of the glass. This left half of the restaurant unusable for the better part of the afternoon due to the unrelenting sun.

Our solution was to bring the blinds down about 4" from the ceiling which we leveled across for maximum coverage.  The difference was instantaneous.  Not only was our fabric a better color and included the latest and greatest sun control technology, but the restaurant now looks new again.  This was a fun transformation.

This slideshow depicts a solar roller shade project for a Red Robin Restaurant in Peoria, Arizona at the MetroCenter.  These are very large windows which required large blinds.  Most required upgraded clutch systems and or a high-end spring assist mechanism.  We use a spring assist system on very heavy solar roller shades which acts to reduce the operator force required to raise large blinds.

As usual, the ambiance of the restaurant was greatly enhanced because the bright light, heat, and glare were made comfortable and beautiful.  Of course, we would love to help you with your restaurant's roller shade project.  Also, be sure to check out our online roller shade calculator for a rough idea of what your project might cost.  Or, please use this contact form to describe your project with rough sizes, and we will gladly email you a rough estimate.

We just completed another solar roller shade project for Tokyo Joe's- this time located in Scottsdale, Arizona near the intersection of Scottsdale Rd and Frank Lloyd Wright Blvd.  These were floor to ceiling, solid glass, west facing windows, so these shades will make a huge difference in controlling the comfort of the restaurant.  

Additionally, we noticed a significant glare factor coming through these windows.   Even when these windows were naturally shaded by the building they were far more comfortable with solar roller shades.  In fact, we could hear the employees commenting, during the installation process, what a big difference the shades were making- and it was early morning.  So, overall, a big win for Tokyo Joe's employees and customers.
