HOW TO INSTALL A PARALLELOGRAM-SHAPED ALUMINIUM SLAT:
The fixing U-profile has a recessed groove into which you can pre-drill holes for the screws. Inside the hollow slat, there are guide grooves along the sides where the screw engages.
An anthracite parallelogram-shaped fence slat with a smooth finish together with a fixing U-profile in the same colour and finish creates a uniform, modern look.
The parallelogram-shaped slat can also be installed at an angle to create a louvre pattern, but you will need to use a 50mm-wide fixing profile.

HOW TO INSTALL A RECTANGULAR ALUMINIUM SLAT:
As an example, consider a 80x16 mm anthracite rectangular aluminium fence slat with a smooth finish, matching the fixing profile in colour and finish. For vertical installation, slide the fixing profile onto the slat and screw it in place. A recessed groove runs down the centre of the fixing profile's outer face, where you can pre-drill screw holes at intervals to suit your desired pattern. Once the slat is slid into the fixing profile, the screw engages with the guide groove inside the slat. Once the slat is slid into the fixing profile, the screw engages with the guide groove inside the slat.

FINISH
Aluminium is an excellent material that resists corrosion and weathering and offers a long service life. The slat is made from EN AW-6060 T66 aluminium and supplied with a textured wood-effect finish.
The profile is powder-coated.. After application, the powder coating is cured in an oven.
This finish offers a long service life and resistance to UV radiation and yellowing.. It is designed for use in construction, where long-lasting colour and gloss are essential.
Please note
The manufacturing process requires at the ends of profiles with a powder-coated finish approximately 1 cm of profile to be left at each end for holding during painting. At the ends of the profile, there is a small hole, which you should take into account. This small hole does not interfere with installation, but the end can easily be cut off if needed.
