FAQs

Can this be used on a wall wider than 200mm?

No, this specific model is designed for walls between 141mm and 200mm. Using it on wider walls will result in an insecure fit and ineffective waterproofing.

Is the aluminium finish durable against salt air?

Yes, aluminium is naturally resistant to corrosion, making it an excellent choice for coastal environments where salt exposure is high.

How do I join two 3-metre lengths together?

Lengths should be joined using approved jointing accessories or high-quality sealant to ensure the expansion and contraction of the metal does not break the seal.

Does the coping come with fixings included?

Please verify your order contents; typically, specific substrate fixings are sold separately to ensure they are appropriate for your wall material (e.g., concrete vs. brick).

Can the aluminium be painted a different color?

The coping comes in a factory-finished grey. While it can be painted, doing so may void the warranty or require specific primers for aluminium surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Water pooling beneath the coping

Check that the joint sealant is intact and that the coping has a slight fall or positive pitch away from the building exterior.

Loosening of the coping section

Inspect all mechanical fixings to ensure they are tightened to the correct torque; replace any corroded or stripped screws.

Visible gaps at junctions

Re-apply exterior-grade silicone sealant to the joints to ensure a continuous watertight barrier.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Superior resistance to corrosion and weathering
  • Lightweight design simplifies manual handling on site
  • Prevents long-term water damage and unsightly masonry staining
  • Modern, clean aesthetic suitable for various architectural styles
  • Durable aluminium construction ensures a long service life

Cons

  • Requires precise wall measurements to ensure a secure fit
  • Limited to wall thicknesses between 141mm and 200mm
  • Professional installation recommended to maintain waterproofing seals

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Installation should be performed on a level, dry substrate. Before fixing, ensure the wall surface is clean and free of debris. The coping units are installed using appropriate mechanical fixings through the pre-drilled points, ensuring all joints are sealed with a high-quality exterior-grade sealant to maintain the integrity of the water barrier. For care, inspect the installation annually to check for loose fixings or sealant degradation. To maintain the grey finish, a simple wash with mild soapy water and a soft cloth is sufficient; avoid abrasive cleaners or strong chemicals that could damage the exterior coating.
