Hi-Span balustrade louvres for New Zealand
135mm HI-SPAN BALUSTRADE LOUVRE
NZ AND AUSTRALIAN BALUSTRADE REQUIREMENTS
The 135mm Hi-Span louvre has been designed to provide an operable Spiral Pivoting louvre suitable for NZ.
This is a general guideline outlining some key requirements as at the time of printing.
Motorised or hand operable
1. A barrier is required when someone could fall vertically 1m or more.
The louvre is an infill panel only and does not include structural balustrade frame supports – supports by others.
2. Balustrade or barrier must be 1m high and of adequate strength to cope with people pressing against it.
135mm HI-SPAN BALUSTRADE FULL HEIGHT END OF DECK
3. Ensure nowhere on the balustrade a child can get a foot hold between 150mm & 750mm above the deck surface to climb over the balustrade or fall through. 4. In NZ the maximum opening between balulstrade verticals is 100mm, in Australia 125mm.

kiss pivot system
hand operable louvre system for fixed panels...
HAND OPERABLE KISS PIVOT SYSTEM The KISS Pivot system operates a range of airfoil and rectangular louvres. This elegant easy to operate system offers the advantages of fully adjustable, lockable louvres at little more than fixed louvre prices. Ideal to use as a fixed frame in an opening, or within our Coastal Series range of sliding, bi-folding or hinged shutters. Operates using double drive-arms that can be locked closed or in various pre-set open positions. Each blade has a woolpile leading edge to assist sealing and prevent metal to metal contact. Sealed with a KISS has never been easier.

END FIXED BLADES – HOW DO YOU WANT THEM? Every Louvretec blade is designed with internal screw ports, allowing easy blade End Fixing options to a channel or frame, at any angle or at any centre. The screw ports also provide fixing for the blade end caps. The type of blade, angle of the blades and the centres of the blades are critical factors with regards to aesthetics and in determining light, shade or shelter. Speak to your Louvretec Dealer regarding what is best for you. 200 LOUVRELINE BRACKET FIXED PANEL

BRACKET FIXED LOUVRES – STYLISH CUSTOM SYSTEMS Bracket Fixing provides for continuous runs of louvre blades. The blades are cantilevered at the ends, and in most instances instances blade fixing is hidden, giving the louvre blades a free floating effect. Louvretec has custom engineered fixing brackets designed specifically for every sun louvre blade, allowing blades to be set at any angle or centre, ensuring fit for purpose outcomes.
