Design Challenge
The offices include some very large rooflight windows which need shading, but finding a blind system capable of spanning such large sizes was the initial challenge. All the hardware needed to match the existing window frame and steel beams. The installation also needed to be completed out of office hours to minimise disruption.
Solution
The large KuroLok Twin RL system was the ideal solution for the glazing dimensions. With its double roller blind setup it provides dynamic shading as the sun’s rays move across the office. All the hardware was powder coated to a bespoke RAL colour chosen by the end client. Bespoke Curtains and Blinds were able to provide a late night install service, so as not to disturb the busy working day.
