Why use sun screens with suction cups for your sliding doors?

A sliding door brings plenty of natural daylight into your home and creates an open connection with your garden. However, during summer it also lets in a lot of heat. Because of the large glass surface, the temperature in your living room can rise quickly. Good sun shading for your sliding patio doors is therefore essential.

Traditional sun shading for large sliding doors is often expensive or requires permanent installation. By using a sun screen with suction cups, you can mount the screen directly onto the glass, simple, affordable and without drilling or screws.

  • Suitable for large glass surfaces
  • Can be installed on the inside or outside of the glass
  • Affordable alternative to traditional solutions
  • Shipped within 5 business days

The benefits of sun screens with suction cups for sliding doors

Sliding doors require a flexible solution that works with both the size and daily use of the door.

This is why you choose Sun Eclipse for your sliding doors:

  • Custom-made for every sliding patio door with flat glass
  • Easy to install yourself
  • The sliding door remains fully usable*

 

*Important: Our suction cups are 3.5 cm high. Please check in advance whether your sliding door can still fully open when the Sun Eclipse screen is installed. If you take this into account, it is an ideal solution for effective heat protection without drilling or screws.

Not enough space to install the screen on the outside? You can also mount the Sun Eclipse screen on the inside of the glass.

Inside or outside installation on your sliding door?

Sun screens for sliding doors can be installed on either the outside or the inside of the glass. When mounted outside, sunlight is blocked before the glass heats up. This is the most effective way to keep heat out.

If exterior installation is difficult or less practical for your sliding doors, interior installation offers a safe and accessible alternative. You can easily mount the screens from inside your home while still noticeably reducing the temperature in your living room.

Which screen type for your sliding door: Optimal View or Maximum Sunblock?

For your sliding doors you can choose between two variants, depending on how much light and heat you want to block.

Installation in short:

  1. Clean the window and suction cups
  2. Place the screen and tighten the suction cups
  3. Enjoy a cool and comfortable home all season long

 

Removing the screens is just as easy.
Store the sun screens clean and dry so they can easily be reinstalled next spring.

Installing sun screens with suction cups on your sliding doors

Our sun screens with suction cups are specially designed for large glass surfaces such as sliding doors. The screens are fully custom-made so they fit perfectly onto the glass of your sliding door.

You can easily mount the sun screens directly onto the glass without drilling, screws or permanent installation. Both interior and exterior installation are possible, depending on your situation. When installing outside, make sure there is enough space between the sliding door panels (at least 3.5 cm) so the door can still open and close smoothly.

Installation in short:

  1. Clean the window and suction cups
  2. Place the screen and tighten the suction cups
  3. Enjoy a cool and comfortable home all season long

 

Removing the screens is just as easy and quick. Store the sun screens clean and dry so they can easily be reinstalled next spring.

Maintenance and lifespan of sun screens with suction cups for your sliding door

ca01a16d4287f3c67f7d08c04ccdbee2c04727ba kopie

Sliding doors are often exposed to direct sunlight and therefore receive a lot of UV radiation. At Sun Eclipse, both the screen fabric and the vacuum suction cups are resistant to UV radiation and discolouration, keeping them looking good for years.

If your screen is installed on the outside, it may become dirty faster due to dust or rain. Thanks to the special coating, dirt hardly adheres to the screen, meaning you usually only need to clean it once per year. Use the special Sun Eclipse cleaner and a soft cloth to keep the screen, suction cups and glass in optimal condition.

After the warm season, simply remove the sun screens and store them clean and dry until next year.

This is why you choose Sun Eclipse:

  • Only needs cleaning once per year
  • Special coating prevents dirt from sticking
  • Resistant to UV radiation and discolouration
  • Suction cups stay attached all season, even during storms
  • Easy to store
  • 5-year warranty on your purchase
  • Durable solution for daily use with years of comfort

Frequently asked questions

At Sun Eclipse, we continuously strive to provide our customers with the best possible support. That’s why we’ve collected and answered the most common questions in our FAQ, so you can quickly find answers to any questions you may have.

Go to FAQ
  • Can I install sun protection with suction cups on sliding doors?

    Yes, sun protection with suction cups is highly suitable for sliding doors. The screens are attached directly onto the glass using vacuum suction cups, without the need to drill or screw into the frame. Because the screens are made to measure, they fit perfectly on large glass surfaces such as sliding doors.

  • Can my sliding doors still open when the screens are installed?

    Yes, provided there is enough clearance. The suction cups are 3.5 cm high, so please check in advance whether your sliding doors can still fully open when the screens are installed. If there is sufficient space between the sliding sections, the sliding doors will remain fully functional.

    TIP:
    Our screens can be installed on both the inside and outside of the window. If there is insufficient space for the 3.5 cm high suction cup on one section of your sliding doors, you can simply mount that specific screen on the opposite side of the glass.

  • Should I install sun protection for my sliding doors on the inside or outside?

    Exterior installation is the most effective option because it blocks sunlight before the glass heats up. This keeps the heat outside more effectively. If exterior installation is not possible or less practical, the screens can also easily be mounted on the inside. Even with interior installation, you will noticeably reduce the temperature in your living room.

  • Which type of screen is best for sliding doors?

    For sliding doors, you can choose between two screen types.

    Optimal View blocks approximately 85% of the heat when mounted outside, while maintaining your outside view.

    Maximum Sunblock blocks approximately 97% of the heat and provides stronger light reduction. This option is ideal for sliding doors facing south or west.

  • How do I maintain sun protection with suction cups on my sliding doors?

    Maintenance is simple. Thanks to the special coating, dirt hardly adheres to the screen. In practice, cleaning once a year is sufficient. Use the Sun Eclipse cleaner and a soft cloth for the best results. After the season, you can easily remove the screens and store them clean and dry.

  • Do Sun Eclipse screens stay in place during strong winds?

    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.

Say goodbye to the heat and enjoy a cool home.
