The shade material was bought at The Home Depot but I'm sure you can purchase it online also like Ebay or Amazon.
My sister and I have been searching for a good video on putting up a shade on my her patio and I'm very glad we finally found yours. Love your idea...it is simple and functional and one that is easy to understand. Will be going out to buy our materials. Looking forward to doing this project. Thank you so very much for sharing your project.😊
@pamelalesane4985 that's awesome! I'm glad you found value in my video. Please make sure you watch both videos for more information and be sure to message me if you have any questions. Also, there's many different material options available online that are reasonably priced. Blessings!

I'm currently working on making something like this to make our balcony hangout more enjoyable. Thanks for the information and videos :)

Blessings on your project and thank you!
@@diycheapneasy6460 Soo, Im finalizing my list right now...
Do i just ask a lowes/homedepot employee for the "Shade Material" aisle?
@@jrodtwins ... its usually outside by the garden area but yes just ask and they'll tell you. I bought the 6'x20' roll.
@@diycheapneasy6460 Is there a brand name?
@@stevenfine673 not necessarily, just what ever brand that's available. There's other options online also... blessings!
This is exactly what I have been looking for. Great work sir! Thanks for sharing this video.
Thank you!
Thanks for the great explanation! My wife is wanting something like this for our porch but with screening. I had looked at the automatic ones but this is perfect!
Thanks, I'm glad it helped! It's easy to do less expensive than a custom one... blessings!

Exactly what I was thinking about doing, just moved late last summer into a new house and when the sun is setting it's unbearable so I nailed a tarp up to block the sun so I could grill, problem was storms, I had to tie the tarp up before it would rip it. Anyways your design looks perfect but I'll have to use EMT (metal conduit) but I do have some strong paracord well chinesium paracord. DIY Cheap N Easy, I'm all about it thanks brother God Bless and thank you !
You have just solved my inquiry on how to install a vinyl screen (for an air conditioned room) on the windows. Much obliged 😊🥂

I'm glad it helped you... blessings!
Thank you so much for sharing! I rigged up a shade with a shower curtain, but I want to make a rope system so I can easily roll it up. I didn't know how to do that, but thanks to your video I know what to do,

Thanx for this video! We recently screened in our back porch but would like to add something for privacy. This solution seems it will work perfectly! Appreciate your clear instructions and details. BTW tell your granddaughter she did an excellent job on the first video assisting Grandpa! Be careful on those ladders...get a spotter next time or pause the camera, then get down, and start the recording again. Do not want anything to happen to you Sir. Have a great day.
Thank you so much for the feedback and concern... blessings to you and yours!

So glad you shared this👍🏻👏👏
I'm glad you found value in my video... blessings!
Wow, great video and explanation! I have a south facing front porch with a swing, in the fall and winter I can’t swing bcz of the sun shining in. I’m thinking about using a 12’X9’ Harbor Freight canvas drop cloth to make this. My cost should be under $25.
Thank you! That should work fine. I've had several people tell me that they're using different material. Blessings on your project!
This is BRILLIANT.
Thank you! I'm glad you found value in it... blessings!
Thank you such a good diy video keep it up
Thank you... blessings!
Thank you for sharing, will use this idea God bless:)
You're welcome, I'm glad you found value in my video... blessings!
Thanks a lot! Useful information yo install a shade un Costa Rica.
I'm so glad you found it useful... blessings!
awesome diy, im trying to install mosquito mesh on my 16 feet long balcony ,already got 12 ft. x 19 ft mosquito tarp,and attached on top part ,i was thinking to make tarp roll out like yours,wondering how to run rope ,would be great to have close view or schematic . Thank you.
I don't know how a schematic will help you... the video shows exactly how to do it? If it's absolutely necessary I guess I could draw one for you. Maybe watch the video a couple of more times and if you need one I'll draw you one, you'll just have to give me a couple of days... blessings!
Great work
This looks like THE inexpensive solution! Guessing you can make it look as high-end as you like, my only question now is what type of fabric did you choose (and now that you are two yrs in, has it been durable)? One addtl comment: I love the idea of it rolling up behind the porch trim/soffit (my choice will be to adjust it up a little higher) at the top...winds and weather in the midwest make this an absolute must! KUDOS, bless you, and thank you for sharing!
Thank you for your kind words! It's shade screen material that I bought from The Home Depot. You can also purchase material online from other stores. As far as durability, it still looks great! Thanks again and blessings!
Very nicely done. It's still looks diy but more like steam punk somewhat...but not ugly as usually diy things look:D Don't get me wrong I am excited to copy your roll up idea and it looks real good too!
Thank you!... something simple and easy. Blessings...
Thank you for sharing 😊
You're welcome!
I am surprised that the screen rolls instead of fan folds or bunches up. That is great.
Yeah I was surprised too! But I just copied the design of a roll down screen that I had and it did the same thing so I figured this one would do the same thing and it does. Thanks for the comment and blessings!
@@diycheapneasy6460 I am getting ready to start this as a project! Did you sew the bottom and sides with a sewing machine? Also, did you use a standard braided nylon rope or something else? Thank you!
@@scottphillips7355 I hand sewed it but I'm sure you can use a machine... maybe heavy duty? As for the rope, I used clothesline rope from Home Depot... which ever length you need.
DIY Cheap N Easy Thanks again! I will share the results.
@@scottphillips7355 yes, please do!
Thank you so much!!
You're welcome... blessings!
thank u for this video.
You're welcome! I hope you found it helpful... blessings!
thank you for the video
You're welcome, I hope you found value in it... blessings!
Hi! Great idea thanks for the guide! I have a question about the ropes... why did you have to use 3 separate ones? Could you just use one continuous one to loop under the pvc and back up, or would it not roll up properly?
Thank you! I don't think that would work being that the rope would have to be able to go up both sides and the screen is secured on the back side. If you can figure something out great!... I used the system that was on an older roll up that I had bought from Home Depot years ago. Thanks for the input... blessings!
Is the fabric/shade thin enough to let the air/breeze through? I really like this idea for sun shade but I want a thin fabric to still let the air flow through.
I believe there are different thicknesses of shade materials... you'll just have to find one that's good for you. My patio is open on the ends so air still circulates thru but there is some restriction of air with this material. Maybe install an outdoor ceiling fan? That's something that we're going to do. Thanks for the question and blessings to you!
Do you think this would work for a 5m wide by 2.5m high opening? Also, why didnt you put the furring stips at the top of your beam? That way you wouldnt see the blind when its rolled up (it is hidden completely from the beam whem not in use)
It should, but you might have to run a fourth rope though? I guess I could've mounted it higher... I never really thought about it. Thanks for your feedback... blessings!
Thankful ❤❤
Thanks for sharing!! I think it would be much easier to replicate if you showed it being made from start to finish. But still, both vids are leading me to want to try it. I'd probably use duck fabric for added shade/privacy.
It's really not that hard to do. If your contemplating doing it then go for it I'm sure you can do it. I sewed everything by hand but if you can use a machine then it will be even easier! Let me know if you do and please ask me any questions if you need to... thanks!
Thank you!!
You're welcome... blessings!
Looks great! What kind of rope did you use and what is the thickness of the rope? Ty 👍
The rope was 3/16 all purpose clothesline rope. I'm sure you could probably find something that's a little more weather resistant but that's what I used. Thanks for the question and God bless you!
Thanks a lot

Hello Sir,
I did my own roller shades but I have the problem whit the edges on the sides the vinyl wave or roll by self.
Can you post a video...?
Simple and best
Thank you!
Thanks for sharing
You're welcome... blessings!
Nice work
Thank you... blessings!
super genial!!! i need to do a shade too. What type of fabric did you buy? it must strong for the the wind and sturdy also for the sun. I would really appreciate your info. Super!!!!, nice and easy!!!!!!
I bought the shade material from Home Depot. It was 6'x20'... not sure of the brand, I bought it several years ago but just barely used it. They still have the same brand... they only carry a couple. I've seen the same brand on Ebay for cheaper and for more volume depending on how much you're doing... just an fyi. I hope this helps... blessings!
@@diycheapneasy6460 Thank you so much for taking the time in responding....blessings too!!
@@diycheapneasy6460 Its made by Easy Gardner and the color is called saddle tan. I have sewn 1000s of feet of that throughout the years. Used to buy 1500 ft at a time. I have discontinued using it as they have changed how they make it and it now thin and flimsy. It will still last well in the sun it just doesnt shade as much as much as my clients want.
@@tracylee8194... wow thanks for the info! I'm sure it will help anyone looking to do a shade. Do you have a product that you recommend?
What material did you used for the tarp mesh, vinyl or cloth. Did you buy it in rolls or you bought custom made. Thank you for this wonderful video you shared. God bless.
I bought it from Home Depot. It came in a 6'x20' roll and I just cut it to the size I needed. You can also purchase them online... maybe cheaper! Blessings!
Where did you get your cloth and is it weather(water and sun) resistant?
The Home Depot. I'm not sure, you'd have to read the labeling...I no longer have it... sorry! Thanks for the question... blessings!
Hi! Wonderful DIY project and video 😁.I have a few questions for you, what size eye bolt did you use? What kind/size of rope did you use? How did you hem the edges, did you just use plain needle and thread or you used a lacing needle and thicker thread? Thank you!
Hi and thanks! Sorry for the late response but I had thrown away all the packaging from the products that I used so I had to go to Home Depot to get the info and I was barely able to get over there. The eye bolts were
5/16 x 4"
The rope was All purpose clothesline rope 3/16 x 100ft.
As far as the thread, I used the thickest thread my wife had in her swing box... lol! She had some upholstery thread from years ago that worked out great. I used a medium sized needle not too big and that worked fine. Sorry but I don't know what size it is. I hope this helps and good luck on your project. If you have any more questions don't hesitate to ask... blessings!
@@diycheapneasy6460 thanks for the reply! We started the project but our problem right now is that the ropes that are supposed to pull up and close the fabric keeps shifting out of place especially when it's windy. How do you make them stay in its proper place?
@@_t__r__ ... good morning! A couple of questions... is the shade secure when it's down? How far are the ropes from the ends? When mine is rolled down I secure the shade in the pvc fittings and then I wrap the rope around the brackets. The rope is usually taut and stays in place. My ropes are about 2ft from the ends of the shade and pvc pipe. I hope this info helps...
Good morning... just checking to see if the rope problem got resolved? Blessings...
Thank you for sharing! I love it!!
Looking at doing this on our patio, what kind of rope and size did you use
The rope was 3/16 x 100' clothesline rope from Home Depot. Thanks for looking... blessings!
This looks like what we need. May I ask where you found your material?
At the Home Depot. I'm sure you can also purchase the materials online...
thank you
You're welcome... blessings!
Terima kasih tutorial yang mudah di mengerti.
Mas kalo boleh tau kain nya itu apa yaa?
hi, how about the lock? if i wanna roll the blinds up.
Once you roll up the shade/ blinds then you secure the ropes by winding them around the brackets. That will keep the shade from coming down. Thanks for looking... blessings!
Where did buy the mesh material from please and thank you?
From Home Depot... it's made by Easy Gardener but I'm sure you can also buy some online if you want a different thickness. Thanks and blessings!
Hello, any idea why my roll up is not actually rolling please ? Its just sliding and crumpling my foil..
I guess I would have to see a video of it in operation. What kind of shade material did you use?
Good job 😅🎉
Thank you, I'm glad you found value in my video... blessings!
Thanks for the video. It is exactly what i was looking for. How thick is the rope ?
It's 3/16 clothesline rope that I bought from The Home Depot. I'm glad you found value in the videos... blessings!
How did you sew the bottom pocket for the 1" pvc pipe as well as to sew the two sides? My wife is a great seamstress, therefore, I know what a time-consuming job it would be doing it by hand.
I sewed it by hand... not too difficult. I used an upholstery needle and thread. If you have a heavy duty machine, that might work. Thanks for watching... blessings!
Metal conduit pipe can be used for the bottom and it never sags.
Yes that is correct... blessings!
What kind of material is it and where do you buy it? Great explanation thanks.
I bought it from Home Depot but you can also buy it online. It's just shade material. Thank you and blessings!
Nice job. Where did u purchase wide pieces of screen ?
From the Home Depot... its called Easy Gardener. There's other options available online also!
Genius!
Thank you!
Thanks
How would you adapt this for an overhead awning?
I've thought about doing one but I haven't really sat down to design it yet. I'll be building an extension to my patio this year sometime and I'll probably do it then. Sorry I couldn't be more help. Thanks for the question... blessings!
@@diycheapneasy6460 I'll let you know what I come up with ☺️
How well does it do for keeping rain out?
It will slow it down but rain will still come thru... it's more meant for the sun. Thanks for the question... blessings!
Its a few years now ,how is the shade holding out
We sold the house back in Sept of last year but I do visit my old neighbor now and then. I look over the fence just to see how things look lol and it still looks great!
