AdamsBlinds / Wood blinds
Planning exterior shading
Exterior shading starts with the building and its exposure.
An outdoor system faces conditions that an internal blind does not. Wind, rain, sunlight, fixings, access and maintenance must be considered for the actual product and location.
Discuss your requirements
Match the system to the position
Tell us whether the shading is for a façade, window, balcony, terrace or overhead structure. Provide photographs of the proposed fixing surface and any drawings. A system suitable for one position is not automatically suitable for another.
Confirm structure and permissions
Fixings must suit the load and substrate. Building alterations, landlord consent, planning requirements and any structural design need to be addressed where relevant. The quotation identifies the installation work AdamsBlinds is undertaking.
Controls and weather use
Agree the operating method and any relevant sensors or control interfaces. Observe the manufacturer instructions for weather limits and safe operation. A particular wind rating or automated protection feature should only be relied on when confirmed for the exact supplied system.
Maintenance and material choice
Exterior timber and finishes need the maintenance specified for their construction and exposure. Access for cleaning, inspection and future adjustment should be planned at the outset. Ask about the maintenance responsibilities before ordering.
