PROJECT OF THE MONTH - Project name: Ulmerpark Dornbirn / Austria- Location: Dornbirn, Vorarlberg / Austria - Number of elements: More than 400 shutters - Type of shutter: Sliding shutter - Model: Model S - Initial contact: June 2008 - Implementation: First delivery: October 2008; main delivery: December 2008 We were able to handle this project in very close proximity to our company headquarters. Of course, this enabled us to keep very close contact with the responsible persons of the contractors carrying out the work. Here again, we started with the customer's plans and worked together to develop a detailed solution for the sliding shutters required. For example, special suspension brackets were designed to facilitate quick and easy installation on site. A completely new design for the lower guide rail was developed and adapted for the installation conditions. Due to the combination of several window elements in one rail, precise measurement and manufacturing was a crucial factor. This however made it possible to have the sliding shutters always flush with the slide rail when open. The widths of the shutters in relation to one another, were calculated so that there is no overlap of individual elements. The elements thereby provide optimum protection from the sun, when closed. In this case too, completion of the project was designed to meet the customer's requirements. The suspension plates were supplied in advance for pre-assembly. The slide rails were supplied as complete pre-assembled units, with all rail elements marked with the customer's item numbers. Through attention to such detail, innumerable hours for installation could be saved. On-site training of installation personnel at the start of the project by our service engineer, contributed significantly to unproblematic and fast installation in the case of this large-scale project too. The model S, with the successful colour scheme chosen here, matches the facade and surroundings perfectly. More information on the model that was used can be found under the product heading “Sliding shutters" and "Sliding bi-fold shutters".
