Application

Suitable for use in education, refurbishment and new build markets.

Description

The thermally efficient 451PT Framing System was designed in close collaboration with Scape. The system meets the needs of the education, refurbishment and new build markets. The 451PT is also suitable as a ground floor alternative to curtain wall use on commercial projects in the public sector, and is ideal for large display windows in the retail sector. The system provides slimline, dual-colour and multi-glazed framing modules of varying widths and heights that feature fixed lights, opening vents and insulated panels.


Features and benefits:

  • Meets the thermal requirements of the current Building Regulations (E&W).
  • Narrow 50 mm sightlines ensure visually pleasing aesthetics.
  • Can be used for large window displays: an excellent tried and tested solution for retail applications.
  • Flush-glazed, therefore easy to apply.
  • Concealed drainage therefore moisture infiltration directed to the outside of the building.
  • Suites with the AA®540 Series Windows, AA®3610 Vertical Sliding Window and all door systems.
