Design Considerations for Outdoor Perforated Aluminum Panels
Aluminum is an ideal metal to use in any type of commercial or residential construction. It is naturally corrosion resistant and will resist rusting, particularly if finished prior to installation through anodization or the application of another form of protective coating.
However, sheets of aluminum used for fencing, rails or architectural elements can be rather plain and uninspiring, which is why many designers and architects are turning to the use of perforated aluminum panels.
At Astro Engineering & Manufacturing, we have been working with contractors and architects for over 25 years to produce customized perforated panels. While we can perforate many different types of metals including stainless steel, brass, and copper, aluminum is typically the metal of choice.
Privacy or Visibility
It will be important to consider the amount of privacy or visibility desired for the specific type of perforated aluminum panels. With a larger perforation and more perforations per square foot, the overall aesthetics of the panel will be an airier, more open look.
When privacy is a consideration, we can offer a pattern that provides very small perforations that still lets in light but provides a more effective vision screen. The size of the perforation will also play a factor as larger perforations will naturally allow increased visibility.
Shape of Perforations
With our advanced CNC punching machine, we can execute a wide range of perforation shapes. We can even create various repeating patterns of perforations of different sizes throughout the panel. Our TruPunch 3000 can even develop irregular patterns, just let us know your ideas and we can translate them into beautiful and practical aluminum panels.
We have extensive experience in working with existing designs or creating our own to develop unique combinations of shapes and patterns for both central pieces for a one of a kind custom home design. We can also create hundreds of perfectly identical perforated aluminum panels to complete commercial fences or the railings for outdoor walkways throughout an entire complex.
