A bespoke Brise Soleil bracket was also utilised to integrate our solar shading solution into the curtain walling. We are delighted with how the fa\u00e7ade looks aesthetically and the level of light introduced into the building through the large panes of glass, which is great for a public use facility.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Metal Technology\u2019s glazing solutions offer complete design flexibility for creative expression, with the assurance of value engineered structural, weather and security performance.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-2970\" src=\"https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_1-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_1-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_1-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_1-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_1.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2974\" src=\"https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_5-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_5-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_5-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_5-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_5-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_5.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>\u00a0 <img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-2973\" src=\"https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_4-300x200.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"200\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_4-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_4-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_4-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_4-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.metaltechnology.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/MT_NEWS_South_Lake_4.jpg 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>An expansive multi-use sports and leisure facility, South Lake Leisure Centre is one of the most significant recent investments in health, fitness and wellbeing in Northern Ireland.
