Vertical Brise Soleil – Chinnor, Oxfordshire
NLC supplied and installed the Louvre Screen and Brise Soleil shown below at The Sanderum Centre in Oxfordshire. The Brise Soleil brackets were installed directly onto the face of the window frames so that panels came down vertically approximately 200mm in front of the window ( to allow for cleaning ). The shading was designed to wrap around all three sizes of the glazed entrance area with the use of compound mitred blades with welded corners. EL100GG-Z Louvre Screen blades were used for the bin store screen and they were fixed back to a box section support frame via. mullions and slotted fixings cleats. All louvre screen components including the box section support frame were fabricated and installed by NLC.
Solar Shading – Great Yarmouth
The Brise Soleil / solar shading on this project provided a reduction in solar gain for two new office buildings in Great Yarmouth which reduced the loading on the air conditioning equipment whilst also reducing solar glare entering the office making them a better work environment as well cutting energy usage . The two buildings had shading on both the ground and first floor. 120mm elliptical aluminium blades were used on this project and the panels were supported by 10mm thick aluminium brackets that were fixed the support steelwork prior to installation of cladding. The cladding contractor then profiled around the fins of the primary brackets and NLC returned at a later date to install the panels. Cover plates were supplied with the panels to cover the cut in the cladding and to ensure a clean finish around the bracket fins.
Tapering Solar Shading – Southampton
The project shown in the images below is one of Nationwide Louvre Companies latest projects. Two vertical brise soleil panels that contain a series of elliptical blades that step down equal amounts each time to follow the line of a roof.

The Brise Soleil blades were supplied with laser profiled end caps which were polyester powder coated to match the blades and supports.
Vertical Brise Soleil – Gloucester
Vertical rectangular blades were used for the Brise Soleil panels at this residential development in Gloucester. The architect on this project used the rectangular shaped blades as a feature above the entrance way to the properties. Although the panels were built into the design as a feature they do provide shading to the windows of the hallway and staircase on each building to reduce solar gain.
Aluminium Brise Soleil – Lympstone
Nationwide Louvre Company recently completed the installation of the aluminium timber effect Brise Soleil shown in the images below for an extension to a residential property in Lympstone. The Brise Soleil / shading panels were supplied with powder coated aluminium frames and brackets to match the black finish on the charred wooden clading to the outside of the new extension. The brise soleil blades were 120mm wide elliptical shaped aluminium with a wood effect finish which offered a nice contrast to the rest of the building.
Screening Louvre – Derbyshire

Brise Soleil / Solar Shading – London
NLC recently installed the Brise Soleil on a private residential property in Putney, London after the customer found that the solar gain during the summer months made the kitchen extension unusable. The brackets were fixed directly onto the face of the building with the panels projecting 1000mm from the wall. The panels provided shading to a large dinning area at the rear of the property. All aluminium components that were supplied by NLC were powder coated white to match the windows and render on the building.
