System components

Every edge, corner and transition, finished.

Panels, clips and matching trims are designed as one system, so terminations look as considered as the field of the wall.

Why Aluminum F/X

Low maintenance, by design.

No staining, painting, warping, cracking, peeling or rot, and a weather-resistant exterior finish with a clean architectural woodgrain look.

No staining or sealing

No painting, staining, sealing or seasonal touch-ups. The finish is factory-applied powder coat.

Won’t rot, warp or crack

Extruded aluminum stays straight and true through freeze-thaw, sun and moisture.

Concealed fastening

Tongue-and-groove panels hide every fastener for clean, continuous architectural lines.

Non-combustible

Tested to CAN/ULC S135 for non-combustibility and CAN/ULC S102 for flame spread.

Hail and impact resistant

Impact and hail resistance that exceeds standard aluminum siding.

Critter-proof soffit

Pests can’t chew through it, so eaves and rafters stay sealed season after season.
