Mr & Mrs Stedman of Westfield, East Sussex decided to purchase sail blinds as they were experiencing problems with glare and heat in their conservatory. They contacted SBI and asked us to carry out an on site survey. Lyn one of our designers met with them to discuss the project. Lyn came up with a design concept to determine what would be the best solution to reduce glare and heat. Not wanting to make the area gloomy by blocking out daylight they decided on the colour SLATE Light in a semi translucent material. We installed four blinds in the roof space and three more sails to the apex windows. This provides cover to the conservatory roof and high apex windows.
Sail blinds create a modern stylish design to the roof space. By adding coloured sails to the roof really adds the wow factor to the design.
From a practical point of view they can be removed and cleaned in a washing machine.
Our installer Rob worked hard to complete the installation on time and without any mess. As you can see from the pictures the installation was a complete success. The gaps between the blinds allow for dapple light. This keeps the area bright and light without the intense heat and glare.
A 5 year warranty comes with the sails and Inshade manufacture them in the UK. Perfectly fitted by SBI Ltd.
SBI along with Inshade have a created a spectacular show site at Flackley Ash Hotel.
