We've only done custom color shade hardware twice. Primarily, it's because a stock color usually works just fine. Secondarily, it's because it's expensive. But this customer wanted shade hardware that blended with the new pergola stain. Tan, champaign, or bronze didn't cut it. So we had Universal Screen send this off to be powder coated with a RAL finish. And it looks great! These units use the same Somfy motors and the same Phifer screens.
