Rockpanel Accessories
The final appearance of your building is influenced by the fixing method you choose. Fixing is not simply a technical requirement but is vital in achieving the design effect you require.
There are three types of fixings which can be used with Rockpanel products:
- visible (screws and rivets);
- semi visible (nails);
- hidden fixing (glue).
Fixings are also available with heads to match the RAL colour of your board material.
Fixings
In case of a ‘visible fixing’ system, the smooth façade of the cladding is accentuated by the heads of the rivets, nails or screws. Employing a secret fix method will bring a sheer, smooth design effect, unobstructed by fixings.
Profiles
The use of profiles, in contrast, focuses the eye on the panel joints and will give the façade an engineered feel, especially when a contrasting colour is chosen for the edge framing elements.
Edges
Cut edges do not require any finishing and quickly colour with sunlight to create a dark brown shadow. However, for aesthetic reasons, Rockpanel Edge Paint is available in a range of colours to match the RAL colour of your board material.
