Penthouse, Clapham – Rooflight External Blinds Project

5th floor penthouse External Blinds

The owner of a third-floor apartment in Clapham with an outdoor terrace and a stunning view over southwest London found his living space becoming uncomfortably warm due to the large windows. The sun’s heat travelled through the windows but could not escape, creating a greenhouse effect inside his home.

Seeking a solution, he contacted Kensington Blinds to address the issue. We installed three large Renson exterior blinds on his windows, which immediately reduced the indoor temperature, making his home significantly more comfortable.

The installation process presented unique challenges, requiring meticulous planning to transport large aluminum profiles up several flights of stairs without damage or causing disruption to other residents. Despite these hurdles, our team successfully completed the installation, ensuring that the blinds not only enhanced the apartment's comfort but also seamlessly integrated with the aesthetic of the terrace and overall living space. The result was a cooler, more enjoyable environment that allowed the owner to fully appreciate his view and outdoor terrace without the discomfort of excessive indoor heat.

“We’re very happy with our external blinds from Kensington.

I wasn’t really familiar with external blinds prior to engaging Kensington but Brian was extremely helpful explaining how the blinds work and what to expect from the installation.

Once installed they looked exactly as he said they would and had a wow factor that is hard to put in words. Would highly recommend!"
