FAQs
Questions before you specify.
Why choose aluminium cladding instead of timber?
Aluminium cladding gives a timber look or contemporary profile finish without timber rot, checking, splitting, termites or heavy maintenance cycles.
Which supplier should I choose?
Choose by the look and profile first. Knotwood is strong for timber look boards and battens, Modinex is strong for linear aluminium profiles, and AliWood is strong for realistic aluminium wood look finishes.
Can aluminium cladding be used on commercial projects?
Yes. Aluminium cladding is commonly used across commercial, multi residential, education, civic and high end residential projects.
Is aluminium cladding suitable near the coast?
It can be, but the coating, substrate, fixing method and exposure level need to be checked against supplier warranty and installation requirements.
Do you need drawings to quote?
Drawings help. Send elevations, wall areas, profile preference, finish direction, delivery suburb and timing so the team can check supply options.
