External Venetians
External Venetians are a versatile retractable Venetian that can reduce glare and reduce solar heat gain by up to 90%. The blades can be finely adjusted to provide privacy or filtered light as required. They can also be fully retracted to allow maximum light in and to access glazing for cleaning etc.
The blades are held in place by side guides or stainless steel wire guides which stop the blades being moved in light winds. These blades should be positioned close to glazing if possible. If blades are positioned away from glazing then they must be retracted in strong winds.
Control: Motorised with remote control or standard switching.
Wind Sensors will automatically retract blades when the wind reaches a certain velocity.
Automatic controls that adjust blades automatically to maintain internal light levels, and can be integrated with Building Management Systems (BMS).
