Markilux Pergola 200 at Larmenier Sacred Heart School

Deans installed a number of sun awnings at this well known Hammersmith school and more recently the school asked us to install some more robust units which could also shelter pupils and parent from the rain. The new Markilux Pergola 200, launched last year proved to be the ideal solultion with it’s patented adjustable sloped roof which can be deployed in especially rainy conditions. Details of the product follow markilux pergola 200 • large sun protection for patios • using the proven technology of the markilux 8000 • with slender front posts, one front post is telescopic and adjustable in height Advantages: • Front post system made of steel - telescopic on one side - for effective water drainage from a minimum pitch of 7°. From a pitch of 14° sufficient water drainage is assured without lowering the front post. • Telescopic front post can be lowered by up to 30cm. This functions by means of a gas piston inside the post. The post can be brought back into its normal position by pushing in the button on the front post and pushing the rod underneath the track upwards. This needs to be done before the awning is retracted. • Easy fixture of the cassette to the wall and of the posts to a concrete base. The front post made of steel, can be continuously adjusted from approx. 220cm up to 250cm in height during installation. • Coupled units available up to 2 fields. • When retracted the cover is completely protected from the weather by the cassette, which encloses it completely. • High cover tension from two individually working gas pistons. • Being a further fixing point the front posts give the awning added stability over and above the fixture of the cassette to the wall, resulting in less torque being exerted on the façade. • Particularly large extension with high wind stability (wind resistance class 3) Design: • Elegant awning system on slender front posts with side guide tracks • The options to combine cassette colour, end cap trim and insert colour (as on the markilux 6000) makes it possible to personalise the markilux pergola and turn it into your own individualised patio awning.

DEANS BLINDS AND AWNINGS QUALIFY FOR CHAS CERTIFICATION.

Dean Blinds and Awnings are proud to announce that they have added the Contractors Health and Safety Assessment Scheme (CHAS) certified endorsement to their ever growing list of professional qualifications.

The CHAS safety qualification sits well with the Investors in People award which Deans have maintained for over 16-years.

Deans Commitment to the welfare and Health and Safety of their staff, their customers and members of the public is unsurpassed in our industry.

CHAS is established as the market leader for health and safety pre-qualification in the UK. It is a non-commercial scheme available to suppliers (those who provide goods and services) and to organizations (buyers) looking for suitably competent suppliers.

CHAS isn’t just for construction companies, it assesses health and safety for all types of suppliers, from care services to demolition contractors, designers and consultants. The aim of the scheme is to save time and resources by avoiding unnecessary duplication in the first stage of competence assessment; the CDM Core criteria.

It has become fashionable to deride our ever increasing demands on the need for Health and Safety and it is true conformity can become very time consuming. At times it can appear that the quality of documentation has begun to outweigh the need for practical on-site measures.

Deans have, however, taken the approach of embracing the regulations and, by complying in all respects, give their customers the confidence needed to be able to place their orders with alacrity.

New awnings for St Mary's Bryanston

St Mary’s Bryanston CofE Primary School has a long tradition of providing a good education and aims to provide a full curriculum to all children.

They have previously reduced classroom heat build up with the use of air conditioning. However, by preventing the sun from reaching the windows with awnings they were able to significantly reduce solar gain without increasing the consumption of energy and thereby also reducing the carbon footprint.

Working with the contractor, Marylebone Interiors, Deans’ Vice President system was specified together with Swela dralon awning fabrics using an automatic control system by Somfy to ensure a controlled environment for the pupils. A vibrabox sensor controls in the front profiles for retraction in windy conditions.

Deans installed the awnings on special brackets and the final result was a visually fun scheme of red, cream and green colours against the cream background of the school.

Mr Peter Hadfield, Head Teacher commented in the school News Letter “The awnings outside Year 1, 2 and 3 were installed over the Easter holiday and they shade the classroom windows perfectly”. He also acknowledged the part played by the Rose Foundation for their contribution to the costs, which made the project possible.

Awnings for Schools for Children’s Protection

Over the past few years Deans have been increasingly asked to provide awnings for shade and solar control in school playgrounds and for nurseries. Deans range of school awnings and sunblinds can be attached to the building or be free standing. Where required, all-weather school awnings, such as the Pergotenda, will provide the additional advatage of being useful as an outdoor teaching area.

Solar protection for school children has become an essential in the fight against over-exposure to the sun including the risk of skin cancer and awnings for schools will reduce this risk

Government guidelines suggest the provision of these outside teaching areas and solor control solutions by using Deans school awnings will allow to schools to integrate outside areas with the building to provide an attractive and encouraging educational environment whilst protecting students from the sun?s harmful rays.
