A dormer catches a lot of direct sunlight. Especially in attics, this can quickly cause temperatures to rise, reducing both sleeping comfort and overall livability. Good sun shading for your dormer is therefore essential.
Traditional screens for dormers are often expensive and require permanent installation. With Sun Eclipse, you choose a smarter solution: sun screens with vacuum suction cups that you can install yourself, without drilling and without a professional.
This keeps the heat outside and your dormer comfortable, even on hot summer days.
Benefits for your dormer:
Not every dormer has standard straight windows. Some dormers have sloped window sections or non-standard shapes. For these types of windows, suitable sun shading is often limited or expensive.
Our sun screens are fully custom-made and are therefore also suitable for sloped or unusual window sections. Think of sloped top windows or windows with a specific angle. As long as the glass surface is flat, we can produce a screen that fits your dormer exactly.
Benefits for sloped or non-standard dormer windows:
With a dormer, you can install sun screens on both the inside and outside. The best choice depends on your situation, accessibility and the level of heat reduction you want. If you choose interior installation, we recommend a lighter screen colour such as White or Boulder.Lighter fabrics absorb less heat and therefore release less warmth into the room. This way, you still achieve the best possible heat reduction even when installing the screens on the inside.
Is the outside difficult to reach? Then interior installation offers an accessible and safe solution. You noticeably reduce the temperature while keeping the installation simple.
Exterior installation keeps the heat outside. This is the most effective way to keep your rooms cool.
For your dormer, you can choose between two types of screens: Optimal View and Maximum Sunblock. Which option suits you best depends on where you install the screen (inside or outside), how much heat you want to block and how much view you want to preserve.
Best choice
for interior installation
Installing sun screens on a dormer doesn’t have to be expensive or complicated. You can easily install the screens yourself, without a professional, without drilling and without screws. This saves on installation costs and keeps your dormer and window frames completely undamaged.
Thanks to the strong vacuum suction cups, you can attach the sun screens quickly and securely directly to the glass. Whether you choose interior or exterior installation, you don’t need special tools and no permanent modifications to your home are required.
Installation in short:
Removing the screens is just as easy and quick. Store the sun screens clean and dry so they can easily be reinstalled next spring.
Our sun screens for dormers are not only affordable to purchase, but also virtually maintenance-free. No motors, no service contracts and no unexpected repair costs, just a solid screen that performs season after season.
If your dormer is exposed to a lot of sun or the screen is installed on the outside, it may become dirty more quickly due to dust or rain. In practice, cleaning once a year with the Sun Eclipse cleaner and a soft cloth is sufficient.
After the warm season, you can easily remove the screens and store them clean and dry. This way, you can enjoy the same quality for multiple seasons without additional maintenance costs.
This is why you choose Sun Eclipse:
Choose your screen type
Optimal View blocks up to 85% of heat while preserving your outdoor view. Maximum Sunblock blocks up to 97% but also reduces your view outside.
Choose your screen shape
In addition to classic rectangular or square windows, we also make screens for non-standard shapes such as triangles, trapezoids and circles.
Choose your screen colour
Not every colour suits every space. That’s why we offer a range of colours that easily complement any interior.
Install and enjoy
Simply place the screens on your windows in seconds and enjoy a comfortable and pleasantly cool living environment again.

At Sun Eclipse, we continually strive to provide our customers with the best possible support. For this reason, we have collected and answered the most common questions in our FAQ. This way, you can easily find answers to all your questions.
Sun Eclipse screens and suction cups stay put even during a spring storm. Our screens catch little wind because they are close to the windows and the suction cups are designed to last.
No, the screens are UV-resistant and hardly fade. Both the fabric and the suction cups are designed to withstand prolonged exposure to sunlight without noticeable loss of quality or appearance.
Thanks to a special coating, the colors stay vibrant for longer and dirt hardly adheres to the surface.
In practice, the screens remain in excellent condition season after season, especially if you clean them once a year and store them clean and dry after the season. This way, they last for many years with minimal fading.
Because Sun Eclipse screens are placed 2 cm from the window’s surface, the screens are supplied with 1.5 cm excess fabric on each side (3 cm per width and height). As a result, the screens close properly and no heat and light can pass through the edges.
You can also opt for no excess fabric, for instance, if you have high square upright edges on your window frames. In this case, choose under ‘which type of frame do you have’ the option ‘Deep and angled’ when you order.
You can request any other changes in the order option. This way you can create a custom sunshade.
