Pinnacle Bank
Multiple Locations
A troublesome east-facing, sloped curtain wall was causing severe sun-control issues during morning hours at a new bank branch in Nebraska. Veil was engaged to deliver a custom design-build motorized solution while maintaining uninterrupted use of the bank.
Veil designed a Hunter Douglas Architectural custom system to follow the angle of the wall using cable guides, while relief bars were incorporated to keep the 20' tall fabric bands from "bowing" into the space. Mermet E-Screen 3% fabric provided subtle control of the direct morning glare, while maintaining views of the exterior when the shades are deployed.
Somfy wireless motors were utilized to simplify electrical rough-in as the shades were installed after the bank's opening giving the user additional flexibility in control of the shades. All hardware was meticulously color-matched to the surrounding finishes and fabric, resulting in a beautiful end-product for the client, a staple piece in the new building.
