Lakewood Ranch homes often come with bare windows and big sliders. West Shore Shade fits roller, zebra and woven wood designer shades. Our own crew measures and installs every one.
Start with solar screen roller shades on sliders and great room windows in your Lakewood Ranch home. Add blackout rollers or zebra shades in bedrooms. Woven wood shades suit dining rooms and dens. West Shore Shade measures every window at a free in-home consultation and checks fabrics against association rules.
Lakewood Ranch is a large master-planned community that spans Manatee and Sarasota counties. New villages keep opening east of Interstate 75. Many homes are new builds that arrive with no window coverings. Owners often need shades for every room at once. Builders rarely include more than basic blinds, if any. Planning all rooms together keeps fabrics and colors consistent.
New builds here often have wide multi-panel sliders, tall great room windows and transoms. Many face lakes, preserves or golf courses. A 5% solar screen roller shade keeps those views during the day. It also cuts the heat that builds up behind large glass. Lake-facing rooms get extra glare off the water late in the day.
Many Lakewood Ranch neighborhoods have associations with rules on window coverings. These rules often cover the color seen from outside. A white or light back side often fits. Bring your guidelines to your free in-home consultation. We will show fabrics that meet them.
A whole-home project goes smoother with one plan. We measure every window in one visit. We group matching fabrics by room so the home looks consistent from outside. Our own crew then installs all shades. We do not use subcontractors. Bedrooms often get a double roller with solar screen and blackout on one headrail. Offices often get zebra shades to control screen glare.
Every style is custom-made for your windows with chain or cordless lift. Here is how each one fits homes in this area.
Roller shades fit the wide sliders and tall windows in most Lakewood Ranch new builds. A 2-on-1 or 3-on-1 setup shares one headrail across side-by-side windows. Pair it with a Square or Illusion cassette for a clean top line.

Zebra shades suit bedrooms and offices in Lakewood Ranch homes. You adjust the sheer and solid bands for light or privacy. Easy Rise cordless lift is offered on select configurations.

Woven wood shades add warmth to new homes with plain white walls. Choose bamboo, flax, ramie or kenaf blends. Top-down/bottom-up lets in light while you keep privacy at street level.
Woven wood details →New Lakewood Ranch homes often have large expanses of glass. The U.S. Department of Energy looked at how glass gains heat. Roughly 76% of sunlight on standard double-pane windows turns into heat in the cooling season. West- and south-facing sliders over lakes take the most sun. Solar screen roller shades block part of that heat.
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.
Many Lakewood Ranch associations do set rules on window coverings seen from outside. The rules often cover color and the back side of the fabric. Share your guidelines at your free in-home consultation. We will show fabrics that fit them.

ZeroLux is a blackout roller system with an enclosed cassette and side and bottom channels. Blackout fabric stops light through the fabric. The channels block light that leaks at the edges. It suits bedrooms and media rooms.
