A new era in cladding

With FRAGER's patented Magnetude® system for entrance doors, façade cladding can now also be fastened invisibly. The architect has complete freedom in designing aluminium cladding.

The combination of flat aluminium sheets with inset shadow joint, tight inner corner and outer corner solutions, allow for a contemporary and minimalist design.
Façade frames, delivered to size, are screwed to the wall. Then, the embedded aluminium shadow joint, plinth or corner is slid into the facade profile and the next facade frame can be mounted. The aluminium outer plate, also supplied to size, is mounted on the gable frame using magnets.
Wall cladding and sectional doors are thus invisibly attached without glue or silicone.

Which fixing systems are currently used?

Visible screws

Pros

replaceable

Cons

not pretty and, moreover, the vise holes should be in slot shape to allow dilation of the material

Invisible: tongue and groove

mostly for wood, but also for steel and plastic shelves
screw onto tooth and next planchet covers the screw (as for wooden planchettes)

Pros

replaceable

Cons

break down from top to bottom

Invisible clip system

horizontal profiles to which vertical alulates are clipped

Pros

replaceable

Cons

break down from left to right or vice versa

Invisible: hooks in counter hook

hooks are screwed to the wall and counter hooks are glued to the cladding panels

Pros

replaceable

Cons

must be glued perfectly correctly = delicate!

On-site gluing

Pros

none

Cons

weather conditions
tighten up and come back later to remove sergeants
totally irreplaceable

Why is Frager Facade a better alternative? The advantages at a glance!

Invisible fastening

The invisible mounting ensures an aesthetic and elegant look.

Flush lining

Door, garage door and facade: everything can be mounted in the same plane.

Dilatation is possible

Like Magnetude^®, Frager Facade allows dilation. When gluing or screwing boards, expansion and contraction of the board material is problematic.

Time-saving

On-site gluing takes time and everything needs to be secured for a time with tension screws. Moreover, they have to be returned to be removed after drying time. At Frager Facade, none of this. The Frager Facade can be installed in all weather conditions (adhesive application requires a minimum temperature of 8 degrees and no rain).

Replaceable

The Frager Facade panels are replaceable in case of damage.

Sustainable in time

Unlike visible screwing or gluing, magnets have no ageing problems.

Circular

All components are separately recyclable which is not the case with glued systems. In this way, Frager Facade is always circular in the future too.

Design freedom

With Frager Facade, architects enjoy unprecedented design freedom. Creativity without limits.

LED is possible

LED integrable into the outer panel with cut-outs (custom design).

Custom cut-outs can be made, such as patterns, house numbers, logos, and other unique elements that enhance the facade design. This allows each facade to be personalized, giving it a unique identity that aligns with the architect's vision.
