Horizontal and Vertical (Slat direction):

Possibility of placing the lattice with the slats in vertical and horizontal position

   Horizontal Slat          Vertical Slat

 

Applications:

 

Shutter systems in a Fixed Application for panels placed in gaps or for façade coverings. They have visible wall studs or between visible frames with either adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.

---

 

Shutter systems in a Sliding Application of mobile panels, which slide horizontally along guide rails located on either the inside or outside of the façades. They are made up of panels with visible frames and fittings, use ball bearings to aid displacement, and have adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.

---

 

Shutter systems in a Practicable Application of adjustable panels which pivot on a vertical axis close to the far edge of the panel. They are made up of panels with visible frames, pivoting fittings for displacement, and adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.

---

 

Shutter systems in a Pivoting Application of adjustable panels which pivot on a vertical axis close to the far edge of the panel. They are made up of panels with visible frames, pivoting fittings for displacement, and adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.

---

 

Shutter systems in a Projectable Application of moveable panels which are hinged on the upper edge of the frame and have external projection. They are made up of panels with visible frames, projectable fittings for displacement, and adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.

---

 

Shutter systems in a Slide + Folding Application of various moveable panels, joined together vertically, practicable and move horizontally along guide rails. They are made up of various panels hinged together like an accordion with practicable fittings, ball bearings for horizontal movement, and adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.  

---

 

Shutter systems in a Retractable Application of two moveable panels joined together vertically; one panel has a fixed vertical axis and the other has vertical axis which moves horizontally along a guide rail. Both panels are made up of visible frames which are linked together using hinges with pivoting fittings and ball bearings for horizontal movement, and they have adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.    

---

 

Shutter systems in a Folding Application of two moveable panels which are linked together horizontally. They are practicable and upwards displaceable along guide rails. They are made up of two panels with visible frames joined together using hinges with compensator fittings, ball bearings for vertical displacement, and have adjustable or fixed solar protection slats.

  At Gradhermetic, we create strategies that increase energy efficiency. We make optimal use of different systems for protection against strong solar radiation, generating natural ventilation and thus avoiding high energy consumption due to the inappropriate use of artificial cooling.

• WINTER: Adjusting the louvers reduces heating consumption. During the day, opening the louvers increases the amount of solar energy captured inside the building. At night, closing the louvers helps maintain the interior temperature.
• SUMMER: The strategy changes. The louvers are oriented to block sunlight from entering the building, maintaining a comfortable ambient temperature and achieving substantial savings on air conditioning. At night, opening the louvers and windows allows for air circulation, again reducing the need for air conditioning.

   

 

Motor Drive: activation of automatic slat positioning with either a visible operator (Lineal motor) or a hidden operator (tubular motors), depending on the type of slats and frames used and with an individual control point to manage operation, or with the possibility of a general control. Our systems are adaptable to different domotic languages. Refer to manufacturer’s instructions and warnings for details of the different automatisms’ usage features.

Solar Motor Drive:  activation of automatic slat positioning with a hidden operator (tubular motor) fuelled by solar energy, a low-consumption motor, and a long-life battery powered by photovoltaic cells, which offer infinite autonomy in all climates. Automatically control the charge and force applied to the slat system with a remote using Wirefree wireless technology to manage operation. Refer to manufacturer’s instructions and warnings for details of the different automatisms’ usage features.

Manual Drive:  activation of manual slat positioning with different possibilities for operation (retractable knob, lever, trigger, crank, universal joint, linear cylinder, and Teleflex) depending on the types of slats and frames used.
