It is a good option that places them indoors or shade cloth.
Temperature: Echeveria succulents are hardy to USDA zones 10 to 11, which means they can survive if the temperature is not below 30°F. Even so, try to move the succulents to a well-lit place indoors in winter, and then reduce the water supply.
Soil: Using the right soil is very important. Choose a well drained potting soil for succulents, which can prevent the roots from rotting. Click here to know how to make your succulent soil.
Watering: The best frequency for watering your succulents is whenever the leaves show very early signs of under-watering, such as the leaves start wrinkling. Succulents may melt or rot if they are in wet soil for a long time. So, soak the soil completely, then let the soil dry out completely before watering again.
Fertilizer: Echeveria 'Red Velvet' sp. Unknown does not need to get fertilizer frequently. Once a year is enough. A more effective method is repot succulent. It can be done in spring or autumn, once a year, minimally. Click here to learn how to repot succulent.
