FLATLOCK CLADDING
Flatlock cladding offers a modern look for any facade. It’s durable, low-maintenance, and perfect for residential and commercial projects. Flat lock is perfect for elegant and sophisticated looking facades and is also suitable for steep pitched roofs. The system allows the sheets to be laid out in long, flat seams or shingles and uses a simple interlocking fold. It is a very versatile system which is good for curved walls and can also be installed in various ways (diagonal, vertical or horizontal). Panels can be produced in a variety of widths and lengths to suit any building. The standard panel widths range from 230mm-430mm depending on the material used.
