Patent REIDsteel Sightscreens

The REIDsteel Sightscreen is laid back at the same slope (or slopes or profile) as the terrace behind.

The spectators behind it and either side of it can see over it to the boundary. There is no obstruction to viewing.

It can slide side to side on tracks for pitch changes.

How the REIDsteel patent, sloping, sliding sightscreen looks

 

The REIDsteel Sloping Sight Screen is exactly the same height (usually about 5m) and width (usually about 12m) in elevation as a traditional sight screen (though it is of course deeper as it is lying down over the terrace).

From the batsman's perspective the REIDsteel sight screen appears the same as the traditional vertical sight screen.

Batsman's perceptive...

Obstructed Views

Traditional vertical sight screens block the view of large areas of Premium space. Look at the seats where the pitch cannot be seen. Look at the huge number of seats with only partial views:

A vertical sight screen obstructs the view of much of the best stands

 

With the REIDsteel sight screen, look how only the seats actually under the sight screen are lost. All other seats have perfect views:

The REIDsteel sight screen lies down and obstructs the view of none of the seats
