Elevate your interior spaces with this award-winning, patented chain-free shade solution – Solar Shades with Newton High-Speed Lite-Lift® Technology (“Newton”). Newton offers a smooth, one-handed operation that’s as simple as a gentle pull—no cumbersome cords or chains required. The result is a striking balance of style, safety, and durability.
Say goodbye to the hassles of corded shades and the maintenance nightmares of motorized shades. Newton ensures effortless shade adjustment, minimizing tangles and eliminating the safety concerns of traditional corded systems.
These shades are rigorously tested and custom calibrated during manufacturing to optimize performance—giving you peace of mind in high-traffic environments. The result? A sleek look that’s modern, reliable, and simple to operate.
Choose from the standard wand or a more accessible loop wand (patent-pending). Both wands can be operated with one hand and require less than 5 pounds of force*, meeting the needs of users of all abilities. Manual lowering is also possible by pulling on the bottom bar without risk of damage to the system.
For projects requiring specific accessibility standards, we offer shades manufactured to be compatible with the applicable requirements in the US 2010 ADA Standards for Accessible Design and California Building Code Section 11B-309.4.
Chains and cords pose inherent safety and injury risks, especially for small children and the elderly. The patented, chain-free design of Newton complies with the industry-recognized safety standard (ANSI/WCMA A 100.1-2022) for window coverings. In addition, this innovative solar shade technology has been certified as “Best for Kids”, a safety program sponsored by the Window Covering Manufacturers Association (WCMA).
Newton was awarded Best of Innovation at the 2024 Nightingale Awards, held at the Healthcare Design Conference + Expo in Indianapolis on October 7, 2024.
In addition, Newton won Gold in the “Window Shading & Treatments” category for its patented, chain-free technology that enhances safety, durability, and accessibility.
“Not only was this product new and innovative, but it was fun to use,” one juror noted. “The smooth operation, balance, and momentum of the opening and closing action feels good in your hands.”

Whether a welcoming hotel lobby, a tranquil hospital room, or a bustling student union, Newton offers flexibility to suit any client’s specific needs. Easily mount your shades with a single bracket option and add fascia, side, and sill channels for a clean, refined appearance.
For the ideal sleep setting, you can pair an inside-mount sheer with an outside-mount blackout. On blackouts, we recommend a 6” overhang on each side of the window for optimal room-darkening.
