General information
Flatlock panel can be installed aligned or staggered and both horizontally and vertically or even at an angle. The panels should be installed on a vertical wall or soffit. The façade system involves laying the panels on a compatible wooden framework or plywood fixed to the supporting structure (masonry or metal structure).
Panels can be square, rectangular or diamond shaped. The panels interlock into each other on the four sides and are secured with concealed fasteners and clips.
Technical data
| Maximum panel sizes | 600 x 1000 mm 530 x 2000 mm 430 x 3000 mm |
| Panel width | The maximum recommended visible width for a panel is 600mm with the maximum length being 3000mm. |
| Panel thickness | The thickness of the zinc used will depend on panel dimensions with small panels using 0.7mm zinc whereas the larger panels will require 1mm thick zinc. Increased zinc thickness will offer a flatter panel, however increasing panel dimensions will have the opposite effect and may induce some unevenness. |
| Standard flat lock panel sizes | The sizes and shapes indicated in the brochure are standard and are therefore more cost effective than completely bespoke sizes. The sizes indicated correspond to dimensions as seen on the finished wall. Diamond shingles are as standard supplied with non-aligned joints. All panels are delivered with stainless steel clips. |
