How do our exterior blinds fair in the Wind ?
The JoshHobbs.com Austin exterior blinds are made for temporary shade from the intense sun. Not for wind protection. And not for bug protection. They accordingly just to be used for temporary sunshade. For temporary patio shade. They cut out 97% of the sun’s rays.
Our exterior blinds are made to roll down when you need shade and then to roll back up when you do not. For our exterior blinds Austin TX products they are made so that when you roll them down you tie them down as shown in the picture below. Using this bungee cord system allows the exterior blinds to flex, to move, in the Wind. However, the exterior blinds are not meant to be put in the down position all day long. Our exterior blinds are just meant to be put in the down position when you need them. When you are outside on the porch or patio. They are NOT to give you shade for your patio’s windows.

Outdoor roller blinds are not supposed to be left down when not being used.
The wind is very powerful and should be respected. A large area consisting of 97% dense solar shade fabric is like a big sail. It’s almost a solid fabric. When the wind blows, a lot of force is being put on the shade. Being pushed against the fabric. Thus, a lot of stress being placed on the tie downs, and the geared clutch. That clutch is geared to not let fabric down. To not unroll. Those gears CAN get stripped from getting beat up by strong wind gusts. Sure it can handle most situations, but it’s not smart to let the clutch get constantly pulled on.
More info about operating my patio roller shades is spelled out on my website.

The clutch system that we use for exterior patio blinds is made by Rollease. All of our R-Series Rollease clutches are exterior rated. Our custom handmade Austin Texas outdoor patio blinds use only exterior clutches. made for being outdoors. Meaning there are no rustable components within our drive clutch system.
In addition, you will see that an extremely heavy duty bracket is used to hold the clutch. That’s that silver component that you see there mounted above the clutch in the following picture.
We only use these extremely heavy duty mounting brackets for our outdoor patio blinds installations. It would be irresponsible to try to use anything less. Of inferior grade, for my heavy-duty outdoor patio blinds installations.
A considerable amount of force is put upon these brackets. From the wind and by hand. They need to be sturdy. Additionally, we only use stainless steel non-corrosive pull chains for our outdoor patio roller blinds.
