Solar Shading London

Spending nearly 90% of our time indoors, large glass windows and surfaces offer a much-needed connection to natural light. But when summer heats up, these glass surfaces can turn your comfort zone into a greenhouse. That’s where solar shading comes into play. Our Renson outdoor solar shading solutions block the sunrays before they reach the glass, preventing overheating. You’ll enjoy an optimal amount of daylight without compromising on indoor comfort.

  • Renson's outdoor blinds are versatile and offer numerous applications for both new-build constructions and renovation projects. Here are some of the ways in which they can be used:

    1. Windows: Outdoor blinds can be installed for existing windows or can be integrated when renewing the joinery. This investment significantly enhances the living comfort both today and for future.

    2. Canopy Cover/Pergola: You can fully enjoy your pergola or garden room during high summer without feeling too warm. Just add outdoor blinds or sliding panels to your canopy cover to control the temperature.

    3. Veranda or Skylight: Outdoor blinds are a perfect solution if you want to enjoy abundant daylight in winter, but avoid a greenhouse effect in summer. With solar shading tailored to your veranda or skylight, you can always ensure the right indoor comfort.

    4. Balcony: Make the most of your balcony in all weather conditions. Windproof outdoor blinds or sliding panels with movable blades can provide you with privacy, shelter from the wind, and pleasant temperatures in the summer.

    5. Curtain Wall: For large glass areas that bring in abundant daylight, minimalist outdoor solar shading can be a game-changer. They not only keep out the sun’s heat but also fit seamlessly with the design of a curtain wall.

  • Solar shading is essential if your home has large glass surfaces exposed to direct sunlight, especially in highly-insulated new builds or renovated properties. It helps prevent trapped heat, reduce glare, and maintain comfortable indoor temperatures.

  • Choosing electrical solar shading offers dynamic control over your home's sun protection. It allows for easy adjustments to accommodate seasonal changes: optimal heat absorption in winter, and overheating prevention in summer. With remote controls, apps, or smart sensors, the operation becomes effortless. Plus, for existing homes, solar-powered sun protection eliminates the need for extra wiring, making the setup more convenient and environment-friendly.

  • Solar shading should be placed on the outside of glass sections that are exposed to direct sunlight, as these areas are most prone to rapid heating. A professional installer can identify the optimal placement for your architecture and joinery, ensuring quick installation and immediate benefits such as pleasant indoor temperatures, maximum privacy, and blackout capabilities.
