Get Ready for Summer With Our Hospitality Shading Solutions!

As the chill of winter begins to thaw, the thought of relaxing in the outdoors becomes all the more appealing. Whether people are looking to sip cocktails or enjoy an al fresco meal, a comfortable garden or patio offers just the right ambiance.

When summer rolls around, making the most of your hospitality venue’s outdoor space is key to drawing in guests, enhancing their experience, and encouraging repeat visits - and to maximising your profit margins.

One of the best.ways to do this is with proper shading. As lovely as the sun is, too much can leave your guests feeling hot, sweaty, and sunburnt - not an experience they'd like to repeat! Proper shading will shield them from the worst of the sun glare, keeping them cool and comfortable on even the hottest summer days. This makes it far more likely for them to return in the future. 

Broadview Shading Solutions are the South’s foremost supplier of high-end shading systems. We offer a wide range of shades for hospitality venues, including parasols, awnings, pergolas, and more. All of our systems are fully customisable and upgradable, and are designed bespoke for your venue. Whether you own a small café or a luxury hotel chain, you can trust us to provide the exact shading solution your garden space needs. 

Read on to discover what shading solutions our range encompasses, what makes them stand out, and how you can get started working with us. 

What Shading Systems Do Broadview Offer? 

Broadview specialises in a diverse array of shading solutions, both freestanding and wall-mounted. These include:

Awnings 

Our roll-out awnings are a popular choice for cafés, hotels, and venues with limited outdoor space. They fix onto the external walls of your main building and can be easily unfurled when needed, providing effective sun and rain protection for your patio. They can be tucked neatly back into their cassettes when not in use, making them a great space-saving option. 

Awnings are also good at stopping sunlight from passing through your windows, helping keep your indoor space cool too. 

Parasols and Giant Umbrellas 

Parasols and umbrellas are common sights in hospitality venues, and for good reason! Their charmingly traditional look makes them attractive focal points in your garden, while their wide fabric effectively shields guests while they enjoy their food and drink. They’re ideal for large outdoor venues where tables are spread far apart, such as restaurants and pubs.  

Pergolas 

The ultimate in luxury shading, pergolas are outdoor structures that are either attached to your building or freestanding. They boast sleek, modern designs and protect against sun, wind, and rain exceptionally well, making them the perfect addition to any garden with the space to fit them. 

Our pergolas come with rotating and retractable roofs, letting you control exactly how much sunlight you want to let in. They can even be upgraded with sliding glass or retracting zip screens, giving them a contemporary look while providing extra protection against the elements. 

What Makes Our Shading Solutions Different? 

At Broadview, we don’t believe in a ‘one-size-fits-all’ approach. We pride ourselves on the time-tested quality of our shading solutions, the bespoke nature of their designs, and the range of upgrade options available for you to choose from. 

Durable and UV Resistant 

Our shades are made of robust, high-quality materials that can withstand whatever the British climate has to throw at them. They won’t rip, stretch, or flip inside out, so you can rely on them to keep your guests safe whatever the weather. 

Even better? Our fabrics and hardware are fully UV resistant, meaning they won’t fade or discolour over time. An occasional clean is enough to keep them looking fresh and new for years to come! 

We’re so confident in their quality that we offer a 5-year guarantee on all our product range. In the unlikely event of a fault or defect, you’ll have the peace of mind that comes with being fully covered. 

Fully Bespoke 

All of our shading solutions are made to measure, putting you in the driver’s seat of their design. You’re able to customise them to the smallest detail, from the length of the arms down to the colours of the fabric - we can even print them with your venue’s branding and logo! 

We take the measurements of your area into account when designing your shades, guaranteeing a seamless fit wherever you choose to install them. 

Upgradable 

Our shades’ cutting-edge designs mean they can be enhanced with a variety of accessories. Some of our many upgrade options include: 

• Heaters 
• LED lighting 
• Motorised operation 
• Glass screens 
• Retractable ZIP screens 

All of these come integrated into your shade’s build, creating a fully all-in-one solution to your shading, lighting, and heating needs.
