Dynamic Solar Protection

External Blinds & Zip Screens

At Martin Burge & Co, we specialise in the installation of CB Solar Shading’s award-winning external blinds. Unlike internal blinds that allow heat to pass through the glass, our external systems block up to 96% of solar energy before it enters your room. This can reduce internal temperatures by as much as 15°C, making them an essential addition for Cheltenham properties with bi-fold doors, lanterns, or extensive glass facades.

Advanced Engineering for Your Home

Zip-Lock Technology
Our blinds feature a unique side-track ‘Zip’ system that locks the fabric into the side guides. This ensures the blind remains stable even in high winds and provides a complete seal against insects and light gaps.
Preserve Your View
The micro-perforated Twilight fabrics act like sunglasses for your windows; they block the glare and heat while allowing you to maintain a clear view of your Cheltenham garden from the inside.

External Blind FAQs

Key information about our external roller blind systems.

Internal blinds allow the sun’s rays to hit the glass, which creates a ‘greenhouse effect’ as heat is trapped inside. External blinds block the heat before it ever reaches the glass, keeping the room significantly cooler.

Absolutely. Our zip-blinds can span up to 6 metres in a single unit, making them the perfect shading partner for large bi-fold and sliding door sets.

The ‘Zip’ technology holds the fabric securely in the tracks, allowing the blinds to be used in winds of up to 30mph. We also install wind sensors that automatically retract the blinds if limits are exceeded.
