Design, ambiance, prestige, style – all words which apply to a Car showroom and whilst the most must be made of natural light to illuminate the cars on show, too much natural light will generate glare and heat detracting from the all important sales ambiance which helps the customer identify with and buy into the product.

Innovative and high quality products from Kaydee offer a solution to the control of natural light which reflect the style and quality of the showroom.

Within their range Kaydee offer a blind system with a 25 year ‘fit for use’ warranty – this serves to underline the quality of the engineering of the blind mechanism. It is quiet and smooth in operation and comes in widths which will span the widest window in one roller. Additionally available in a powered version so that the blinds can be operated at the touch of a button or wired in to a fully automatic system - this option offers you complete control of your sales environment.

Should your showroom design involve overhead glazing Kaydee offer the FTS 120 and 140 – two horizontal blind mechanisms which both use a fabric tension system to ensure that the fabric unrolls and winds up smoothly and consistently over its long operating lifetime. Operated by powerful electric motors these blinds can also be controlled at the touch of a button or again wired in to a fully automatic system.

The fabric choice is immense ranging from dim-out to blackout but generally the ideal fabric for a car showroom is a screen fabric which eliminates glare and diffuses light to present the product in its best light, whilst still allowing visibility through to the outside. Different degrees of openness, from 1-10%, are available depending on the orientation of the elevation.

As car showrooms, by their very nature, involve the use of large expanses of glass, the likelihood of the build-up of heat with the building is high. To assist with the minimisation of heat build-up, Kaydee offers an extensive range of heat reflective fabrics, the reverse side is sputter coated with a molecular layer of aluminium, which helps to deflect the heat back outside the building. The benefit is a cooler more relaxed showroom, the perfect sales environment.

We are happy to assist in your choice of fabrics to achieve the very best results.

We like to be involved at the very earliest stage of the project to enable us to work together with the client, the architect and the contractor to make sure that we fit the ultimate solution for the situation.
