You wouldn’t expect to hear the words ‘sheer’ and ‘delicate’ when
describing perforated sheet metal. But that’s exactly what can be
achieved if you want a softer effect – and it’s easier than you think.To

If
you want to make perforated metal more transparent and sheer in
appearance, it’s all down to the pattern – and sometimes even the colour
finish – that you choose.When you’re planning for perforated metal
transparent aesthetics, you don’t just need to think about hole size.
There’s pitch and open area percentage to consider, too. All these
factors determine how ‘see-through’ the finished perforated sheet will
be:

Pitch: Pitch is the distance between hole centres in adjacent
rows and is measured in millimetres. Essentially it means how close the
holes are to each other. Pitch can have different directions, such as
straight or staggered. For a transparent effect, you need the holes
close to each other.
Hole size: Hole size is also measured in
millimetre diameter. For delicate transparent effects, smaller holes
work much better than larger ones.
Open area percentage: This is the
amount of area, calculated as a %, that is made up of holes on each
perforated sheet. You can read all about open area percentage and how
it’s used on our blog

Transparent-style
perforated metal is easy to achieve with our profile 244 , with which
is in-stock for Australia-wide delivery now. P244 has is our
larger-sized hole option of 9.5mm diameter, and has an open area
percentage of 51%.

You can see profile P244 in use in our project
for Gosford Hospital. We created panels for the site’s staff walkway,
that combine privacy with visibility.Another great example of a
sheer-style perforated metal project are the custom shutters we made for
the prestigious Infinity Apartments in Canterbury. The shutters are a
delicate veil covering the apartment windows, instead of large and
imposing screens.
