Gyms and Sports halls

Enhance Comfort and Performance in Your School’s Gym and Sports Hall

School gyms and sports halls are increasingly multi-purpose hosting a variety of activities, from PE classes, discos and school fairs to jumble sales, school productions - and sports events! Effective and flexible blinds help enhance performance and comfort during your activities.

Regulating temperature and managing glare and UV light are the challenges most frequently cited by schools looking for shading solutions:

  • Intense sunlight can create glare on gym floors and sports equipment, hindering visibility and performance during activities.
  • Temperature fluctuations due to sunlight can make it uncomfortable for athletes and spectators alike in many sports halls. By using blinds for gym settings, schools can regulate temperature and create a more comfortable environment.
  • Prolonged sunlight exposure can damage equipment and flooring, leading to premature wear and tear and increased maintenance costs. Gym blinds with UV resistance are ideal for protecting floors and sports equipment.

Maintenance of blinds can also be a challenge, with high windows and a host of hands and fingers tangling blind cords! We provide the option of gear-operated roller blinds which have no chain or cords, making them more robust and ideal for schools.

Barlow Blinds offers a range of effective, robust and flexible blinds to help you manage the natural light, temperature and demands of your activity spaces. We will help you choose the optimum solution for your gym or sports hall, which may include:

Anti-Glare Blinds effectively diffuse sunlight

Specialised blinds with glare-reducing properties effectively diffuse sunlight, whilst still allowing natural light into the room, minimising glare and reflections on gym surfaces for improved visibility and performance.

Thermal Insulating Blinds regulate temperature

Insulating blinds help regulate indoor temperatures by blocking out excess heat in summer and retaining warmth in winter, creating a comfortable environment for athletes and spectators throughout the year.

UV-Resistant Blinds help protect your floors and equipment

UV-resistant blinds block up to 97% of UV rays, providing protection and preserving the integrity of equipment and flooring, and reducing maintenance costs over time.

Privacy Blinds help create secluded areas

Privacy blinds provide the flexibility to create secluded areas within the sports hall for designated spaces during events, or to ensure confidentiality in changing rooms.

Gear-operated roller blinds for ease of use

High windows and tangled cords are frequent complaints from schools! Our gear-operated roller blinds have no chain or cords which makes them more robust and easier to use.
