Relax in Cool Comfort
EZ Snap RV Shades can Lower Interior RV Temperatures up to 15 Degrees.
Exterior sun blinds will make a substantial difference to the interior comfort of your RV by blocking up to 90% of the sun’s heat outside, before it hits your windows.
Our happy customers tell us their RV’s feel cooler immediately after installing EZ Snap® window shades. Read our RV Shade Reviews here…
Optical Grade RV Shade Mesh reduces glare while still letting in plenty of ambient light. Additionally, one of the best benefits to using our screens is daytime privacy. Imagine, all day long being able to see clearly out through all your windows (from the interior) while people on the outside are unable to see in.

DIY – Do It Yourself Install
No Special Tools, Drilling, or Screws required.
So simple and effective to use that anyone can do it.
These No-Drill Fasteners allow you to adjust the shading mesh until you have it just perfect and wrinkle free. Then they lock together to form a strong, durable and removable snap without drilling holes or using screws.
You can shade not only your motorhome or coach windshield, but all the other windows and skylights on your rig. Fits all sizes and shapes of windows on trailers and 5th wheels too.
Block the heat, not the view… and get more privacy inside your RV.
RV Shades Must be Removed Before Travel:
Highway speed wind whip may prematurely wear out Shade Mesh.
Also, if a Shade detached during travel, it could be lost. Even worse, the flying shade could land on the windshield of the car behind you causing possible liability.
RV Window Shades
Exterior Solar Shades for Motorhome, 5th Wheel & Trailer Windows.
Blocking the sun outside with shade material is up to 7 times more efficient than these traditional interior RV window treatments: RV roller shades, RV pleated shades, RV blackout shades, reflective sun shade material or RV quick shades.
Before EZ Snap®, if you wanted to have custom RV sunscreens for your motorhome, fifth wheel or trailer, you’d have to hire a professional to come out to your location and custom fit them on your RV. Often expensive, with no guarantee of a good fit or high quality window shade materials.
Now, using the patented and proven EZ Snap® System, you can order your Window Shade Kit securely online, install them yourself, and achieve professional results (but for substantially less money).

How to Measure RV Windows
Exterior Window Shades are ideally fastened to the side of your RV, just beyond the edge of the window frames.
For frameless windows, Shades may be mounted directly onto the window glass. Mounting on the glass allows for split crank-out windows to open and close, even when Shades are on.
When measuring your windows, go from the centre of the Fastener position on the left, across the window, to the centre of the Fastener position on the right, then add 2 inches. Repeat, measuring from top to bottom, then add 2 inches.
The EZ Snap Calculator provides a detailed layout diagram, that is helpful when it’s time to cut your Shade Mesh to fit your RV windows. Also included in the EZ Snap Calculator results are the exact Fastener counts for each window.
When covering multiple windows and skylights, it’s important to use the washable layout pencil to mark your layout on the Shade Mesh before you start cutting. Measure twice, cut once.
Don’t want to drill into your RV?
If you are concerned about drilling into your motorhome or RV with our screw studs, you’ll be happy to know you don’t have to.
When ordering your RV Window Shade Kit, select our 3M VHB Adhesive Studs, instead of screw in studs. Adhesive studs simply peel and stick to your RV’s exterior. As long as the surface is clean and flat they will be stuck firmly into position (SEE VIDEO).
Installation Tips for 3M EZ Snap® Adhesive Stud
No Screw, No Holes Fasteners…
- To ensure good adhesion, clean surface with isopropyl alcohol. This helps remove any film, dirt or oxidation.
- Install only when temperatures are above 15 Celsius or 60 Fahrenheit.
- When installing on a curved windshield, remember to try and create a slight air gap between the glass and the mesh for improved efficiency, you may need to order extra fasteners for this, to increase tension and fastening points.
- Adhesive studs should be pressed into place with at least 15 lbs of pressure. Bond strength is dependent upon the amount of adhesive-to-surface contact. Firm pressure develops better adhesive contact and helps improve bond strength.
- When possible, wait 30 to 60 minutes after installing the studs, before installing the shading mesh. The longer you wait the stronger the bond. See the chart to the right.
- The 3M studs work extremely well on clean flat surfaces like vinyl, aluminum or fibreglass, but they are not recommend on wood. Customers have successfully applied them to wood, but this is usually when the wood surface has been very smooth and sealed. We cannot guarantee results on wood or porous surfaces.
EZ Snap® Featured Article in MotorHome Magazine
“Sun Diffusion… Installing custom-cut shade mesh on motorhome windows is made practical and simple with kits from EZ Snap Direct – no drilling required.”
“Since motorhomes aren’t built like houses, with thick walls and lots of insulation, we’re often looking for ways to keep the hot sun from streaming though our ample – and often large – windows, without having to draw the shades.
Shade mesh is one of the best answers – polyethylene fabric, attached on the outside, partially blocking the sun. This type of mesh has been marketed for years to homes in hot regions and is available in a variety of configurations including drop shades from awnings, and windshield covers for motorhomes. Depending on the weave, the mesh may block 50 to 90 percent of the sun’s rays, greatly reducing heat and UV damage while still allowing daytime visibility and some airflow.
While installation of shade mesh on windows usually requires mounting twist-locks on the side of walls and grommets in the fabric to allow removal for travel, a company out of Oroville, Washington, and Vernon, British Columbia, Canada, EZ Snap Direct, offers kits that simplify the process with the use of unique three-piece snaps that are easy to install and require no drilling…” Read the entire article, as well as important install notes on the last page.
IMPORTANT Article Correction Note:
Do not install your adhesive studs on the window frame as shown in the magazine article. Install your 3M Adhesive Fasteners right beside the window frame, on the flat, clean surface of the RV.
We recommend that you mount on the flat surface of the RV rather than the frame of the RV window since most RV frames have one of the following surface problems: curved, not flat, or have a powder-coated or rubberized surface.
