case study
Heat Control at the Counter, Privacy Behind It
One busy post office, two different problems. The shopfront needed heat control while keeping the counter clearly visible to customers; the other side needed heat control plus privacy, keeping cash and parcels out of view from the street.

This post office was dealing with two very different problems on the same building.
The shopfront glazing was gathering significant heat, but needed to stay clear so that customers could still see in and the counter remained visible and welcoming.
The glazing on the opposite side had the same heat issue with an added concern: cash and parcels were visible from outside, which was a security consideration given the high volume of customers passing through each day.
THE CHALLENGE
Understanding The Problem.
Every project starts with understanding what isn't working. From excessive heat and glare to privacy or security concerns, identifying the problem allows us to recommend a solution that suits both the glazing and the space.
Both elevations are noticeably cooler, making the space more comfortable for staff and customers through the warmer months.
The shopfront remains open and inviting, while the working side of the building is no longer visible from the street. The client was extremely satisfied with the outcome.
OUR SOLUTION
Finding The Right Approach.
With the requirement understood, we selected an approach that balanced the desired result with the appearance and practical requirements of the glazing.
