Aluminium perforated panels
Four mistakes buyers make when ordering perforated aluminium
The same four problems turn up repeatedly on perforated facade orders: buying on a square metre price that hides the cost of folding and stiffeners, specifying an open area that suits the drawing but not the ventilation or shading requirement, leaving the coating system unstated so the quote is priced on the cheapest option, and approving a colour on a chip rather than on the actual alloy and finish.
Key points
- Compare quotes on the finished cassette, not on the flat sheet rate before folding and stiffeners
- Fix the open area against the shading or airflow requirement rather than choosing it visually
- State the coating system explicitly, since PVDF and polyester powder are priced very differently
- Approve colour on a coated sample of the actual alloy and finish, never on a printed chip
The values below are the ones the factory publishes for this range. Anything outside them is quoted against your drawing rather than assumed.
