Overview

More than one way to build a louvre window.

Louvre windows can be used for everything from straightforward residential ventilation through to larger architectural applications. At Datco, we work across a range of louvre systems, allowing the frame, blade configuration, glass and hardware to be selected around the opening, the design, the performance requirements and the budget.

Selecting the system

What influences the choice:

  • Residential or architectural application
  • Opening size and configuration
  • Airflow and ventilation requirements
  • Design and appearance
  • Glass requirements
  • BASIX and other project-performance requirements
  • Location and exposure
  • Screening requirements
  • Budget

Glass, screens and hardware

Glass blade options, hardware, security or flyscreen solutions and framing systems are selected around the individual application rather than offered as a single fixed specification. Performance, system selection, glass, hardware and screening requirements vary according to the project and are confirmed around the individual application.

Automation

Automation is available on selected louvre systems and is something we regularly incorporate. It can be considered as part of the system selection from the beginning of the project, with the appropriate solution chosen around the opening, product and level of control required.
