Purpose & appearance
About this product
Broad Slat Screens form a horizontal timber screen within a moving panel. Their broad, flat members create a different appearance from narrow square profiles or traditional angled louvres.
They can be considered where the façade needs a measured rhythm of timber and open gaps. The panel arrangement is designed around the opening, the view and the space available for the screens to slide.
Keep the slat arrangement clear
The listed construction uses 70 mm wide, 15 mm thick fixed slats within a 40 mm panel. Cedar, hemlock and pine are the documented timber choices, with an appropriate exterior finish agreed for the project.
The slats remain fixed as the complete panel moves. Their spacing and the viewing angle determine the degree of screening. A broad slat does not, by itself, establish complete privacy or any particular solar-performance figure.
Plan the complete exterior assembly
A screen across a balcony or door opening must work with access, the railing, surrounding cladding and any threshold detail. The track position and parked panel width are therefore part of the initial design, not simply installation details.
We review structural support, exposure and maintenance access before confirming the specification. Timber grain and tone vary naturally, and exterior finishes need appropriate upkeep. Drawings and photographs of the full elevation help us coordinate panel divisions and finish selection across a larger scheme.
Plan your project with AdamsBlinds
Send the opening sizes, photographs and the finish you have in mind. We can provide an initial estimate, discuss a survey for a supply and installation project, or quote for supply to agreed measurements. The final quotation confirms the selected specification, order size, availability and any installation requirements.
