Description
A aluminium wall connection profile is a specific type of building profile used to create a connection between a roof covering and an adjacent wall. The profile ensures that no water or dirt can penetrate at the transition from the roof to the wall, and it is often used on flat or slightly sloping roofs.
Here is the product information often associated with an aluminium wall connection profile:
Product description
The aluminium wall connection profile is designed to form a watertight seal between a roof covering and an upstanding wall. This profile is widely used in both new construction and renovation projects and is suitable for various roofing materials such as EPDM, bitumen, and plastic roofing membranes.
Features
- Material: High-quality aluminium, ensuring a lightweight but durable product that is resistant to weathering and corrosion.
- Dimensions: Available in various lengths, usually ranging from 2 metres to 6 metres. Widths and thicknesses depend on the specific application, e.g. a width of 60 mm to 120 mm.
- Finish: Anodised or powder-coated aluminium in standard colours such as clear aluminium, grey or black, depending on the visual requirements of the project.
- Application: For a watertight seal between flat or slightly sloping roofs and upstands.
- Installation: The profile is mechanically fixed against the wall and overlaps the roof covering. The profile is often caulked for extra waterproofing.
Advantages
- Weatherproof: Aluminium is resistant to rust, oxidation and other forms of corrosion, making it ideal for outdoor applications.
- Lightweight: Easy to handle and install due to its low weight.
- Sustainable: Lasts a long time without much maintenance.
- Aesthetic: With its clean finish and different colour options, it contributes to a neat, professional appearance of the eaves.
- Waterproof: Provides a safe and watertight transition between the roofing and the wall, preventing leakage.
Applications
- Flat roofs with raised walls.
- Expansion of houses or commercial buildings.
- Garages and carports.
- Canopies and verandas.
- Industrial and commercial roofs.
Installation instructions
- Preparation: Make sure the surface is clean, dry and free of loose particles.
- Tailoring: Cut the profile to the correct length using a suitable saw for aluminium.
- Attachment: Place the profile against the wall and secure it with screws or bolts. Make sure that the fastening is strong enough to withstand weather conditions.
- Sealing: For additional protection, the top of the profile can be sealed with a waterproof sealant, such as silicone or butylene sealant.
- Check: Ensure that the transition between roofing and wall is fully sealed and watertight.
Maintenance
Aluminium wall connection profiles require little maintenance. However, it is advisable to check the kit seams and fixings annually to prevent any damage or wear and tear
