Designed for the façade Engineered for the project

Glazed Frog batten screens combine architectural flexibility with engineered aluminium and supporting structures, providing a practical solution for screening, shading, privacy and façade design.

More Than Just a Screen

Batten screens can be used to control visibility, provide solar screening and define architectural spaces while maintaining airflow and visual openness.

Privacy

Creates separation while maintaining a sense of openness.

Helps reduce direct solar exposure to selected areas of the building.

Solar Screening

Solar Screening

Adds depth, rhythm and visual definition to building elevations.

Provides a clean architectural finish for plant, equipment and service areas.

A System

A finished batten screen is made up of more than the visible battens. The battens, supporting structure, brackets, fixings and finish all work together as one system.

01. Aluminium Battens

The visible architectural element.

03. Brackets & Connections 

Transfers loads between the screen and supporting structure.

05. Finish

Provides the required architectural appearance and surface protection.

Not Just a Profile

02. Supporting Structure

Provides the structural framework behind the screen.

04. Fixings

Connects the system to the building structure.

Built Around the Loads

Batten screens can be exposed to significant wind loads depending on their location, height, orientation and configuration. The supporting structure and connections therefore need to be considered as part of the overall system.

Wind Loads

The screen and supporting structure are designed around the expected wind conditions.

Span

Support locations and member sizes are considered according to the required span.

Connections

Brackets, welds and mechanical fixings form part of the structural load path.

Deflection

The system is designed to control movement under expected service conditions.
