This type of shade is based on the operation principles of interior roller shades, but it is especially designed for exterior installation.
All parts are made of high durability materials, resistant to adverse weather conditions and continuous use with the overall aesthetics being of the highest standards to suit the demanding needs of architects and building designers.
The system’s motor and mechanism are safely protected inside a sheet aluminium box or extruded aluminium oval or square cassettes that can be painted to the desirable RAL pallette.
The side guides of exterior roller shades can be either (a) solid aluminium rails, (b) stainless steel cables of gauge 4mm / 6mm (according to the surface area), (c) stainless steel cable of gauge 10mm (in stronger systems).
For customised shading applications like patios, horizontal or inclined windows etc. an innovative system with double cassette mechanisms that keep the fabric wrinkle-free and always in tension can be used, painted in any RAL colouration required.
Refleksols are effective shading systems used for vertical glazing of various types. They can be applied both externally and internally. They are in the form of a fabric roll, operated manually or with an electric motor.
Refleksol's ZIIIP system series is made of aluminium with high weather resistance. Also, the fabrics in ZIIIP systems are made of strong polyester fibre, coated with a PVC layer or have glass fibre admixture in their composition. They are extremely resistant to adverse weather conditions and their colors remain unchanged for years.
ZIIIP systems reduce the effect of sunlight and limit excessive heating of rooms. They eliminate light reflections in the interior spaces and significantly affect their thermal and visual comfort. This effect will be especially appreciated by people who work in front of computer screens.
Indicative projects :
Refleksol R125
Refleksol R125 is a roller blind system mounted to the facade of the building with the use of brackets. A characteristic feature of this system is a round cassette in the form of a cylinder. The cassette is held by steel cable guides and brackets that constitute the load-bearing element of the construction.
R120 Ziiip
Refleksol R120 Ziiip is a facade system for niche or window installation with increased wind resistance class. Thanks to the zipper mechanism the fabric in this model remains stable and tight even in strong gusts of wind. In the case of niche installation, the fully opened Refleksol also acts as a mosquito net. It is possible to create a modular system with the use of modular brackets.
Ziiip 120 Large
Refleksol Ziiip 120 Large is an external facade system with a reinforced construction and high wind resistance class. It allows the production of a blind up to 5 m wide and 3 m high. This system is designed for installation in the niche or on the facade of a building. Even with gusty coastal or mountain winds the fabric remains perfectly tight.
R95 Ziiip
Refleksol R95 Ziiip is a facade system for niche or window installation with increased wind resistance class. This system has been designed so that the fabric remains stable and tight even in strong gusts of wind. It is possible to create a modular system with the use of modular brackets.
Refleksol 120
R120 system is an external cassette Refleksol. Both the guide rails and the rectangular cassette that protects the motor are made of extruded aluminium which can be painted in any colour from RAL palette. Depending on the type of the facade, these Refleksols can be installed in the niche or on building facade. The revision at the front of the cassette is easily accessible, which is important in case of installation as well as maintenance and service works. The maximum width of a single module is 4 m. This system can be optionally equipped with special anti-wind profiles, which increase the resistance of the fabric to wind gusts and limit the deformation of the material under its influence.
Refleksol 103
R103 system is an external cassette refleksol with solid construction which enables the production of large-size systems (up to 4.5 m wide). The semi-circular cassette has a revision in the front which ensures easy access during maintenance and service works. This system can be optionally equipped with special anti-wind profiles that increase the resistance of the fabric to wind gusts and prevent deformation of the material under its influence.
Refleksol 95
System R95 is an external cassette Refleksol. Both the guide rails and the rectangular cassette that protects the motor are made of extruded aluminium which can be painted in any colour from RAL palette. Depending on the type of the facade, these Refleksols can be installed in the niche or on building facade. This system is self-supported and the revision at the front of the cassette is easily accessible, which is important in case of installation as well as maintenance and service works. The maximum width of a single module is 3.5 m and the height is 4 m.
Refleksol 90
Refleksol R90 consists of guide rails, an oval cassette and a fabric selected among the available designs. The model has a self-supporting version in which the guide rails G31 type that rest on brackets are the load-bearing element of the system and the cassette does not have to be attached to the facade. Refleksol R90 offers not only a large selection of guide rails, but also bottom bars. It is also the model with the largest range of fabrics available.
Refleksol 76
Refleksol 76 consists of guide rails, an oval cassette of the smallest size available in SELT offer and a fabric selected from among the available patterns. This model is available in two versions: with a cable guide and aluminium guide rails. When choosing aluminium guide rails mounted to the wall with brackets, a self-supporting model is selected in which the cassette does not have to be attached to the facade. The revision in this system is located at the back of the cassette.
Refleksol 85A
Refleksol 85A is a lightweight automatic cassette system designed for interiors. The square cassette is made of extruded aluminium. The advantage of this model are metal side covers of the cassette painted in the same colour as the construction, which guarantees visual consistency.
Bora
Bora is a side awning used as a lightweight cover for terraces and other non-standard spaces. Its advantage is the ability to adjust the dimensions of the system to individual needs as well as the possibility of mounting the handle of the Bora both to the wall with a wall bracket and to the ground using a post. The construction is made of extruded aluminium which guarantees durability and resistance. After being closed, the fabric is secured in the cassette and the entire system takes up little space.
