Lynx Arm Lynx Cable Lynx Rail

A Markisolette sunblind shades the upper part of the window whilst allowing natural light and visual comfort to filter in. The front cover stay bar can be adjusted to different heights efficiently controlling light and heat gain.

The perfect sun screening system for building facades - with flexible assembly, ideally suited for climate control, available in a wide variety of colours and, of course, effective anti-dazzle.

The front profile of a drop arm blind lowers by gravity and is fixed to side arms that fall from a pivot point. The projection is thus the same as the drop from the roller to the pivot point. This is the simplest form of awning that is ideally suited to shorter drop windows. The arms normally fall 90º to the horizontal although they will drop through to 135º to give shading against low angle sun.


To achieve a long projection or for clearance under the arms as would be required over a patio door or shop window, a Sliding-Arm blind is needed. The pivot point moves up the slide as the blind drops. A spring mechanism in the slides draw the arms up, tensioning the fabric and providing resistance to wind buffeting.

Solar Shading & Screening is a proven method of significantly reducing, and in many cases, eliminating solar heat gain. It effectively forms a barrier between the sun and the glass without reducing light into the building and vision out of the building for the occupants. By forming this barrier, the sun does not reach the glass and in turn create solar heat gain within.

Solar shading is not a new concept. It has been around for centuries starting with fabric awnings, more commonly seen on villa style buildings in Europe.

Today there are literally dozens of options, from modern interpretations of external fabric roller blinds to intelligent fin style louvre systems that, thanks to their own built in control system, follow the sun to achieve optimum protection whilst allowing maximum visibility.
