Application

The system is designed for vertical applications and can be used for coastal projects, very windy locations or installation at high altitudes.

Description

Guillotine frames enable almost boundless heights to be reached, whilst retaining the same quality and aesthetic criteria as other products. Each panel can support a maximum weight of 500 kg or 1000 kg on request.

The moveable panels can be moved with minimal force, either manually or using a motor. They can operate in one of two ways:

  • a system with two identical panels which counter balance one another;
  • a counterweight system on the side (integrated into the finishes) which opens up an infinite range of configurations.

Features and benefits:

  • Rails embedded and concealed in floor, wall and ceiling.
  • Double or triple glazing options.
  • Range of different powder coated and anodised finished available for frames.
  • Rails & frames: saline treatment specially adapted for coastal projects.
  • Motorised option available.
