FAQ’s

What is the design process for conservatory sails at SBI Ltd (Sun Blinds Installations)?

At the centre of our design process is understanding your requirements and helping you create a space that is tailored to your needs. To do this, we assess the conservatory and orientation of the house in order to understand the level of heat gain. Afterward, we discuss how you want to use the space and your preferences in terms of light and temperature, and then give you the opportunity to work with a designer to create a solution to meet these needs – balancing your budget with your aesthetic preferences.

Are conservatory sails easy to put up and take down?

Conservatory sails are very easy to put up and take down – on average, it only takes 10 minutes to unhook a set of 4 sails, and a mere 15 minutes to put them back in position.

Does conservatory sail blinds discolor?

Sunlight causes most fabrics to discolour over time, and that’s why the manufacturer has developed our ISX fabric to combine maximum solar performance, ease of use, and fantastic durability – thanks to the 100% premium polyester. They have tested the sail blinds extensively and to a higher standard than required by the British standard for curtains and drapes – our warranty also covers discolouration.

What do conservatory sails look like?

Conservatory sails have a unique, elegant look that is not only aesthetically pleasing but enhances the quality of light within your space. Hanging from the roof, the overlaps and gaps create mixed levels of light which strengthen depth perception and allow you to create intricate designs and patterns – ultimately the layout is completely tailored to your desires.

What are the different colour options for conservatory sails?

SBI prides itself on a simple colour-choosing process that gives you limitless options. SBI has a small selection of neutral colours, which are the most popular for the main sails, but we also offer some bolder colours which are typically used for the accent sails. If none of these are exactly what you want then, for an additional fee, we can run a short roll of fabric in any colour you want – we call this Colour Match.

How many years can conservatory blinds last?

The longevity of conservatory blinds depends on how hot your roof becomes, how well the blinds are cared for, and the effect of insects and chemicals in the surrounding air. InShade sail blinds come with a standard 7-year warranty. Sail blinds can be easily unhooked and machine washed at home, unlike traditional roof blinds which often require professional cleaning. We test every batch of our ISX fabric to twice the level required by the British Standard and also carry out periodic extreme high-temperature tests which is why we are so confident in our product.

Can conservatory blinds fit any size/shape conservatory?

Sail blinds fit slightly below the glazing support bars, and this means they don’t need to follow the conservatory roof design – giving conservatory sail blinds the freedom to fit any size or shape of conservatory or roof, without increasing the cost. It also means you have the ability to develop a design that suits your taste, placing overlaps and gaps wherever you wish to create a beautiful design that is unique to you and grants you the degree of solar control you desire.

How do I clean conservatory sails?

Conservatory sails are super easy to clean, just pop them in your washing machine on a 30°cycle and use a non-bio washing powder or liquid. The sail can be put back up straight from the spin cycle. Washing the sails once or twice a year maximises the lifespan by removing dirt and debris and leaving them clean, fresh, and looking good for years.

How long do conservatory blinds take to install?

Installation is quick and easy, thanks to our professional installation teams who have many years of industry experience and knowledge behind them. The sails are first custom-cut to your exact dimensions in Stirling, Scotland, and this usually takes 2-3 weeks. Each sail takes 20-30 mins to measure and roughly the same amount of time to install.

What’s the difference between conservatory blinds & sails?

Both traditional roof blinds and sail blinds are designed to shade your conservatory roof to control heat and glare. However, they do this in very different ways. Traditional blinds have adapted a system designed for vertical window blinds by adding tension chords to hold the blinds. The quality of the material, and hence the life of the product, varies significantly between manufacturers, and the fabrics let in very little light when closed. In comparison, sail blinds were designed for roof applications and developed specifically for residential conservatory roofs.

Our ISX high-performance solar control fabric was developed to provide maximum heat and glare control while allowing lots of diffused natural light into the space and is up to 97% efficient. The fabric is also super durable and machine washable.

How expensive are conservatory sails?

Conservatory sails cost the same or less than an average set of pleated roof blinds. Sails are great value for money and a cost-effective solution to heat and glare control. SBI Ltd is able to tailor conservatory blinds to suit your budget whilst not compromising on quality. For example, you can opt for a simpler design with a smaller number of sails, or you may only need to cover part of the roof to resolve your issues. Both of these options look stunning and allow you to benefit from the same premium-quality fabric.
