Screen Innovations (SI) has improved its most popular KAOS Outdoor Shades. SI adds its dealer cherished Zen Outdoor Shades features to further enhance KAOS, while extending the maximum size of KAOS from 20 ‘to 24’ and more!
KAOS (aka, Kick Ass Outdoor Shades), is a Patented V-Screen Retention System, which is built tough and holds the shade structure like no other, says the maker. The new and improved systems combine all the key advantages of SI Zen Outdoor Shades with its renowned KAOS tracks to deliver the best of both worlds, as well as easy installation and smooth maintenance-free operation for years to come.
“Our dealers asked, and we listened,” says Kim Parker, President of Screen Innovations. “Our dealers loved the Zen installation but wanted the KAOS high-wind benefits, so we combined them both to create the strongest, most installation friendly, robust, outdoor shade system available today.”

The new shades install in half the time. With SI’s quick clip tube mounting mechanisms, integrators get hands-free to carry a heavy tube up the ladder instantly. Unlike some other high-wind shading systems, the V-Screen wheel system uses Teflon-coated constant force springs that allow more play during installation, while maintaining a much tighter screen in windy conditions, unlike magnetic tension systems. The screens also have an elegant, décor-oriented, customisable and architecturally friendly design that is a natural extension of every home.
With the all-new SI Outdoor Motors, KAOS is now compatible Bond and the SI ecosystem, and it is a natural extension for any shade project. KAOS offers diverse control options with SI motors.

Hurricane approved Kevlar fabric options are available, along with high-wind fabrics. Choose from a box or pocket cassette enclosure, available in multiple colors to match each environment and décor. The KAOS Outdoor Shades are an aesthetic match to SI’s Nano, Niño and Origami shades, which share the same power and control features.
