Each design is unique and early discussion with our Project managers on Tel: 0115 930 1521 is recommended.Dales are able to manufacture perforated panels for solar shades, when required. Please bear in mind it is not always possible to guarantee products installed in harsh environments.Dales systems are designed to give a low maintenance life of 60 years in rural and suburban conditions & up to 25 years in industrial conditions, dependant on the exact environment. Most bespoke and traditional Brise Soleil or solar shading panels can be manufactured off-site, into modular or unitised forms, ensuring speedy installation. Dales reserve the right to charge for any such increased design time incurred in their design office that results from the need for 3D modelling.Dales design all systems to accommodate the extremes of temperature typical in the UK. These companies specialise in the installation of our materials and fit them on a regular basis and vary in size from large facades installers to smaller eaves and rainwater goods specialists.Profile, colour and surface finish samples available to order.Dales welcomes all specifiers, engineers and clients to see our solutions being manufactured first hand.Involve our design team early for optimum solutions by uploading your 2D drawings or provide a link to your 3D model here.We can bring our experience and expertise directly to you at your site.Profile, Colour and surface finish samples available to order.Dales welcomes all specifiers, engineers and clients to see our solutions being manufactured first hand.Involve our design team early for optimum solutions by uploading your 2D drawings or provide a link to your 3D model here.We can bring our experience and expertise directly to you at your site.

Maple’s Strata Corona brise soleil system is made up of rectangular timber or aluminium blades, which can be angled for bespoke design or specific shading requirements. If modulation is required, it should be identified in the NBS Specification clause which, our Project Managers can assist you with.Solar shade panels can be adapted at relatively low cost during manufacture to provide large or small hinged access panels to allow cleaning or other access.It is important to ensure that such requirements are integrated into the contract specification, since incorporating such a requirement after installation can be expensive.Solar shades cassette panels can be designed to allow rainwater pipes to pass through unhindered.

Vertical aerofoil fin system used for screening the tearoom and kitchen area within open plan offices for News International in Thomas More Square.The fin angle was carefully designed to screen the kitchen area from the entrance foyer and the main office space while still making use of natural daylight through the fins to illuminate the space.This bespoke design using our 250mm wide fins provides an interesting balance between form and function.© Contrasol Ltd.

When we first began designing Solar Shade Systems over 30 years ago, Dales took the decision to minimise site fitting times. We manufacture and install bespoke aluminium Louvres and Louvre systems, doors, screens and panels, additionally we offer bespoke Brise Soleil products from our manufacturing units based in … Corners are usually supplied in cassettes as well; however, due to the geometry, they may well be supplied in two half-corners.For larger spans, corner units may require additional support in the form of brackets along the mitre of the corner. At these temperatures people are at risk of dizziness, fainting, heat cramps and in some extreme cases heatstroke or collapse.Scientific studies confirm that increased temperatures directly correlate with absenteeism and negative productivity: as temperatures increase productivity decreases. Our Brise Soleil is has been designed for the competent DIYer to install themselves. Dales design and manufacture solar shading systems (including brise soleil and privacy screens) on a bespoke basis to suit each individual project. All systems are designed on an individual project basis and a 25 year guarantee may be available, subject to terms and conditions. Bespoke Brise Soleil combining performance with visual appeal. Dales offer CPD webinars (RIBA CPD Approved Material), which include the subjects of solar gain and compliance with the present regulations, New Part L regulations are due, but the process of consultation was only concluded in February 2020.

Each manufacturer can provide fire test evidence conducted by independent test laboratories, if required.Dales can provide a RIBA Approved Material seminar on this subject: With regard to all aspects of detailing for fire-prevention and prevention of spread of fire, as with all projects, specifiers, developers and their main contractors should employ and consult a suitably qualified and experienced fire safety engineer to ensure that all details submitted, specifically including those details which may involve Dales ppc or anodised aluminium products are considered appropriate, suitable and compliant with current building regulations & the overall fire strategy for the project.Specifiers, Developers and Main contractors are further invited to consider the RIBA Fire resources web page at The design liability of Dales will be limited to the reasonable skill and care of a specialist sheet-metal fabricator.Quotations provided by Dales include for the items expressly listed and do not include for the supply (or design) of any supplementary items such as, but not limited to; insulation, plywood, vapour barrier, fire protection, insect mesh or mastic/sealant (other than gutter sealant). Designing our extrusions for maximum span, supplied in complete cassettes reduces errors, particularly at corners and minimises site-time allowing rapid installation.Cassettes can be created with blades as a horizontal projection, with horizontal bladed that are then stacked vertically or installed vertically.
