Gilberts (Blackpool) Ltd
The selection of an appropriate Louvre system is one of the important aesthetic
decisions now faced by Architect and designers. A system that is flexible
in its application, provides the right appearance, has great durability,
offers a good performance and is easy to install. Gilberts integrated Louvre
System is one of the most rewarding and comprehensive in the industry, specially
designed to cater for the many demands imposed by modern architecture.
Attractive yet versatile and featuring both standard and high performance
units in factory assembled or an economic component based (site assembly)
format.
Standard Performance Louvres
Standard louvres: Available in 38, 75 and 100mm blade pitch configurations
with flanged or channel border frames and optional Bird Guard, Insect Screen
and Weather Cill accessories.
All sizes and types of Louvre Panel can be built up in sections to create
louvre screens with additional features such as a continuous appearance and
internal or external mitred corners. Single and Double hinged door assemblies
can be supplied either as stand alone units or built into a continuous screen.
Rooftop Penthouse louvre formats can also be arranged.
Movable Blade Louvres: 100mm Pitch Louvres available in a Flanged Frame and
suitable for Manual, Motorised, Teleflex or Pneumatic operation.
Special Louvres: Semi-Circular, Circular and Triangular Louvres are available
as standard. Most other practical shapes however can be designed and manufactured
specially to your requirements.
Site Assembly
75 and 100mm Pitch Standard and High performance louvres are now available
in component form for fast, economic on site installation.
High Performance Louvres
Conventional double and triple bank louvre assemblies, whilst effective,
do incur significant penalties in terms of size, weight and ease of handling.
Not to mention increased pressure resistance and cost. Gilberts patented
WH and new WP Series represent a radical new departure in high performance
louvre offering simple SINGLE bank assemblies that provide
outstanding weather resistance. Testing in accordance with the European Standard
for weather louvre performance for example shows the WH Series to be 99.5%
effective in screening/
exhaust applications and still 99% effective even with face velocities of
up to lm/sec.
Available as mechanical ventilation louvres or as screens to suit large format
facades they can also be supplied with doors/access structures.
Blade Profile:The unique blade profile used on the WH series has been designed
to offer maximum weather protection. The high lip on the leading edge features
to reduce water run off on to the lower blades eliminating the cascade effect
of cumulative water build up. The series of channels further up the blade
retard penetration from direct or airborne water spray as well as preventing
the upward migration of water.
Specification
Gilberts units are manufactured from robust High Grade (BS 1470 - 1474) aluminium
extrusions, however some Galvanised and Stainless Steel Units are available.
Bird Guard and Insect Screens are offered as optional extras.
Finish: Product finishing can be carried out in a variety of processes:-
Mill Finish: Untreated, Polyester Powder Coatings (available in any RAL and
many British Standard 4800 range colours), PVF (Polyvinylide Fluoride Resins)
and Anodising treatments to commercially available colours.
