Standard product features | Construction: Frame members are mitre cut at 45 degree corners are reinforced with extruded aluminium cleats and a secure joint is formed by crimping into the extruded cleat. Intermediate mullion bars are square cut and fixed securely to the frame with stainless steel screws.

The louvre blades are supported and retained at each end and at mullion positions by louvre carrier sections that slide into position. Louvre blades clip onto the carriers and are self-spacing to give a regular pitch. Infill louvre blades are also provided at the head of the louvre frame to achieve non-modular louvre heights. If required, an additional drainage section with stop ends can be fixed to cill of the frame.
