Dunedin mixes downtown cottages, mid-century homes and condos along St. Joseph Sound. West Shore Shade fits roller, zebra and woven wood designer shades for each home. We bring real fabric swatches to your door.
Zebra and woven wood shades fit most Dunedin cottages well. Zebra shades give privacy on streets where homes sit close. Woven wood adds natural texture to older rooms. West Shore Shade brings real swatches to a free in-home consultation and installs with our own crew.
Dunedin is a walkable town with Scottish roots and a busy Main Street. The Pinellas Trail runs right through downtown. Many homes near the trail are small cottages and bungalows on tight lots. Front windows often face the sidewalk. Many have double-hung windows and small front porches. Inside-mount roller or zebra shades fit these frames cleanly.
West of downtown, Edgewater Drive follows the shore of St. Joseph Sound. Homes and condos there look west toward Caladesi Island and Honeymoon Island. Sunsets over the sound bring strong late-day glare. Solar screen roller shades cut that glare and keep the water view.
North of downtown, the Dunedin Causeway leads out to Honeymoon Island State Park. Homes near the causeway face open water to the west. They take the full sunset over St. Joseph Sound. A 1% solar screen cuts the strongest glare. A double roller adds blackout for bedrooms on that side.
Away from the water, Dunedin has many mid-century ranch homes. These houses often have Florida rooms and sliding glass doors. Wide sliders suit a roller shade on a shared headrail. Florida rooms suit woven wood shades for a relaxed look.
Dunedin has several condo communities near the water. Many condo associations set rules for coverings seen from outside. We bring neutral-backed fabrics so you can compare options at home.
Every style is custom-made for your windows with chain or cordless lift. Here is how each one fits homes in this area.
Dunedin homes on St. Joseph Sound face long sunsets over the water. A 1% or 3% solar screen roller shade cuts that glare. A double roller adds blackout for west-facing bedrooms.

Zebra shades suit downtown cottages where front windows face the Pinellas Trail or the sidewalk. Shift the bands to block the street view while light still comes in. Easy Rise cordless lift is available on select configurations.

Woven wood shades fit Dunedin's cottages and Florida rooms. Bamboo blends like Beach and Reed suit a coastal look. A light-filtering liner adds night privacy.
Woven wood details →West-facing Dunedin homes on St. Joseph Sound take hot sun late in the day. The Energy Saver team at the U.S. Department of Energy reports a clear figure. About 76% of sunlight on standard double-pane windows enters as heat in the cooling season. Shading that glass keeps sound-view rooms more comfortable.
The same roller, zebra and woven wood styles come motorized. Use a remote, a wall switch or your smart-home app. Every motor carries our lifetime motor warranty.
A roller shade with 1% or 3% solar screen fabric blocks the most sunset glare off St. Joseph Sound. It still lets you see the water. A 5% fabric keeps a clearer view with a little less glare control.
Zebra shades give the most flexible privacy in a downtown bungalow. Shift the solid bands to block the sidewalk view. Lined woven wood shades also work well. Top-down/bottom-up woven shades let daylight in while the lower glass stays covered.
Yes, on eligible configurations. Cordless lift removes the hanging cord loop. Zebra shades offer Easy Rise cordless, a three-stop gravity system, on select configurations. Other shades use a chain or cord loop. Motorized shades are another cord-free option.
