Blinds in Hyde Park
Penthouse and apartment glazing around Hyde Park Corner — wide balcony sliders taking the full afternoon.
Hyde Park runs from big freestanding homes on the Sandhurst side to apartment and penthouse living around the corner itself, and the two ask for quite different things. The apartments come with wide balcony sliders and a lot of west-facing glass, usually with body-corporate rules about what may be visible from outside.
On a balcony slider the usual specification is a sunscreen roller to hold the glare off the seating without losing the skyline, plus a blockout in the bedrooms behind. Where the balcony itself needs to be usable in wind, a zip screen in side channels is the product that survives — a loose outdoor blind on a high balcony does not last.
Tell the consultant which building you are in and whether the body corporate has a rule on exterior colour. It is far cheaper to specify to the rule than to re-do a whole elevation afterwards.
Hyde Park sits inside our core service area, so it is the same consultant-led measure, the same made-to-order manufacture and the same installation team we bring to Sandhurst itself. The measure is free either way.

The Sandhurst Slope & Sightline Papers
What the light does here, and what we would fit where
The balcony sliders around Hyde Park Corner take the same 52° afternoon arc as the houses on the Sandhurst slope, and the Papers set out exactly what that arc does to west glass through the year — plus which products stop the heat outside the pane, and the honest catch with each of them.
