Just like doors and doorways, windows can be as much an architectural as they are an access feature of a building.
Pressed metal flashings can provide reveal liners to window cills, heads and jamb profiles. They are supplied in individual elements for fixing on-site or as a complete factory-assembled pods to meet the growing requirement for off-site or modular manufacture and assembly.
These window flashings are available in a wide range of materials, profiles and finishes.
At the other end of the weather spectrum to rainwater systems, sun louvres and shading help protect a building from solar gain or glare by deflecting the sun’s rays from its interior.
The increasing use of glazing on a building’s façade has led to a corresponding use of Brise Soleil to prevent the building’s interior overheating. Shielding a building’s façade from solar gain can help reduce its reliance on active, expensive ventilation systems while reducing solar glare makes life more pleasant for a building’s occupants.
Long-lasting and easy to maintain, Brise Soleil can be installed vertically or horizontally in a range of materials, finishes and perforations.
Doors and doorways can be as much an architectural as they are an access feature of a building.
Pressed metal flashings can provide reveal liners to door jambs and head profiles. They are supplied in individual elements for fixing on-site or as a complete factory-assembled pods to meet the growing requirement for off-site or modular manufacture and assembly.
These door reveal flashings are available in a wide range of materials, finishes and profiles including bullnose, corners and drips.
Spandrel panels within curtain walling or glazing systems help to give continuity of design style over a façade while at the same time providing privacy.
Aesthetically, spandrel panels are supplied in a wide range of materials and finishes including aluminium, stainless steel and plastisol. Manufactured on a completely bespoke basis, they are available insulated and non-insulated, making them particularly appropriate for over-cladding a building that requires refurbishment if it’s no longer thermally efficient.
Window pods combine the functionality of a traditional window with additional detailing for the ultimate design effect.
The windows in a building are not just there to bring natural light and ventilation to the structure’s occupants but also to break up what could otherwise be a monotonous façade. Window pods can achieve this by either being outwardly projecting or recessed. Regardless of the make-up of the envelope, be it brick, render or rainscreen.
Materials used – zinc, stainless steel, copper, brass and aluminium (pre/post-painted powder coated or anodised) can be either matched to the colour and material of the façade or used as a stand-out feature. Backing support structures and frames can also be provided.
