THREE SYSTEMS. DISTINCT DETAILS.
Explore what sits behind each roof, from the way the louvres move to the route rainwater takes.
FOR GENEROUS OUTDOOR SPACES
A substantial motorised roof with 196 × 50 mm louvres, a side-shaft drive and a double-cavity gutter.
A motorised linkage coordinates the movement of the roof louvres.
Profiled louvres meet sealing strips at the roof-edge junction.
Separate water channels collect and guide rainwater towards the post drainage route.
Based on the supplier catalogue, pages 8–11. Final specification is confirmed with your proposal.
FOR EVERYDAY PATIO LIVING
Motorised shade with a slimmer 156 × 35 mm louvre profile, side-shaft linkage and a single-cavity gutter.
Adjust the roof louvres using the coordinated side-shaft mechanism.
The smaller louvre profile works with EPDM and wrapped sealing details.
The gutter and water guides feed a concealed drainage route through the posts.
Based on the supplier catalogue, pages 12–14. Final specification is confirmed with your proposal.
FOR SIMPLE, HANDS-ON SHADE
A manually operated louvre roof with a welded main shaft, snap-on bearings and an integrated drainage route.
Turn the crank to open or close the louvres. Roof operation is manual.
A stainless-steel welded main shaft connects to the louvres, supported by snap-on bearing seats.
Rainwater is collected at the roof edge and directed through the frame. Gutter lighting is optional.
Based on the supplier catalogue, pages 15–17. Final specification is confirmed with your proposal.
THREE CONSTRUCTIONS. CONSIDERED DETAILS.
Compare the complete S200, S156 and M156 constructions. The detail tabs then take a closer look at the S200 moving parts, sealing, drainage and lighting.
01 / 03 · S200
01 / S200 · MOTORISED SYSTEM
Louvres, roof beams, gutters, drive components and posts are planned as one assembly. Compare the complete product drawings, with each model’s original profile details, dimensions and callout lines.
02 / THE MOVING CONNECTIONS
The catalogue shows a snap-on bearing seat and a bolted shaft connection at the louvre. These details support the roof movement and connect the blades to the mechanism.
03 / WHERE THE LOUVRES MEET
EPDM rubber strips and a wrapped sealing detail are shown at the louvre edges. The roof, seals and gutter junction are designed to work together when the louvres close.
04 / A ROUTE FOR RAINWATER
Roof channels feed the gutter, then the water follows a concealed route through the posts. The gutter cross-section shows the collection and guide channels within the assembly.
05 / ADJUST THE ROOF TO THE MOMENT
A linear actuator and side linkage move the louvres together. The two catalogue detail views show the mechanism in open and closed roof positions.
06 / USE THE SPACE AFTER SUNSET
Explore louvre lighting and a gutter light arrangement for the atmosphere you want. Light positions, colour preferences, power and control are reviewed together.
FOLLOW THE WATER
01Water from the roof is collected along the gutter channels.
02The water guide helps direct flow through the frame to the drainage path.
03A concealed post route leads to an outlet planned for your site.
