CS021 – Extruded Top Hats & Zeds
Available in 3m and 6m lengths, our Clad-Sec CS021 framing system is designed to provide support to any rainscreen cladding system.
The Omega (top hat) and Zed extruded rails are designed to be installed onto a continuous structural load bearing substrate to offer direct support to the cladding panels by face or adhesive fixing.
CS031 – Vertical Framing
Clad-Sec CS031 Helping Hand bracket framing system is designed to provide vertical support to most rainscreen cladding panels using the principle of a ventilated façade.
Helping Hand brackets combined with extruded aluminium L & T profiles provide the installer with an adjustable system allowing for thermal and structural movement and variation in cavity depth to suit project specific requirements.
CS032 – Horizontal Framing
Helping Hand framing does not always need to be vertical! With the introduction of a clever adapter bracket, our CS031 vertical system can be reorientated into a robust and economical horizontal application.
CS033 – Hook-on System
As part of our newly increased range we now offer our very own hook-on panel framing solution. Rather than opting for an expensive and overcomplicated mullion methodology, we have adapted our tried and tested existing vertical CS031 system to facilitate such needs. The thought process here is two-fold. Firstly installers can continue with the much loved and understood way of installing, and secondly our clients are able to enjoy the cost benefits of us offering our already high volume, therefore lower cost components.
CS034 – Soffit Support
By popular demand we have engineered a soffit support system. We believe this completes a fully all encompassing adjustable envelope framing portfolio. That is for now at least!
Why not incorporate the CS034 soffit support with our rollformed planks for a fully engineered under-cladding solution?
CS041
Clad-Sec CS041 floor to floor framing system is designed to provide vertical support to most rainscreen cladding panels using the principle of a ventilated façade with the ability to span over non-load bearing walls and be fixed back to floor slabs.
Wall brackets combined with extruded aluminium box and “T” box profiles provide the installer with an adjustable system allowing for thermal and structural movement and variation in cavity depth to suit project specific requirements.
Our Clad-Sec Helping Hand framing is stocked, tested, and ready to deliver.
