<strong>Fineline</strong> <strong>Series</strong><br />
Operable glass facade system
The Living Facade<br />
In response to demand for a more cost effective alternative to it’s acclaimed<br />
Fullview <strong>Series</strong> operable glass facade, <strong>AGP</strong> designed and built the <strong>Fineline</strong><br />
<strong>Series</strong>, a versatile operable louvre facade system which is custom designed and<br />
manufactured to suit the clients requirements.<br />
The <strong>AGP</strong> <strong>Fineline</strong> <strong>Series</strong>, is the original operable<br />
glass louvre system, suitable mainly for apartment<br />
wintergarden spaces. For greater weather protection,<br />
the <strong>Fineline</strong>-XT system features the louvre blades<br />
sealing against the outside face of the mullions.<br />
In addition to providing a striking facade presence,<br />
<strong>AGP</strong> <strong>Fineline</strong> <strong>Series</strong> louvres ensures the amount of<br />
all year round liveable space is maximised. Individual<br />
users are able to choose between opening up a space<br />
to the natural environment during pleasant weather,<br />
or closing it off when protection from inclement<br />
weather is required.<br />
With <strong>AGP</strong> <strong>Fineline</strong> <strong>Series</strong>, the bottom two louvres<br />
in each bay are fixed to act as a safety balustrade<br />
whilst giving the appearance of being part of a<br />
complete louvre facade.<br />
The operable glass louvres are supported by specially<br />
designed aluminium split mullions that have the<br />
operation mechanisms contained within. These<br />
mullions can be fixed in between, or on the outside<br />
of the floor slabs, depending on the architectural<br />
preference. And wIth no visible linkage mechanisms,<br />
the system has a neat, clean and attractive<br />
appearance.<br />
These support mullions and operating mechanisms<br />
are manufactured and assembled in <strong>AGP</strong>’s factory<br />
before being transported to the site and installed by<br />
<strong>AGP</strong>’s team of skilled and experienced tradesman.<br />

Ephraim Island Apartments, Gold Coast<br />
A unique and prestigious residential address, with its own<br />
dedicated bridge from the mainland off the Gold Coast,<br />
Ephraim Island (pictured above) offers its residents a truly<br />
luxurious and private experience.<br />
With the island divided into five precincts, with a<br />
combination of apartment buildings, villas and beachfront<br />
homes, the architects from Mirvac design needed to provide<br />
different facade treatments to define the buildings<br />
<strong>AGP</strong> <strong>Fineline</strong> <strong>Series</strong> louvres were used as feature screens on<br />
a number of these apartments buildings, and in addition<br />
to their aesthetic appeal, they also provide many practical<br />
benefits, to ensure apartment owners can utilise their<br />
balcony spaces all year round.

Custom Design<br />
Every <strong>Fineline</strong> operable glass louvre system<br />
is custom designed and built to the specific<br />
requirements of the client.<br />
<strong>AGP</strong> can design a <strong>Fineline</strong> <strong>Series</strong> operable glass louvre system to<br />
suit almost any application. With aluminium mullions that can be<br />
installed at heights up to 4000mm and glass louvre blades that can<br />
span up to 1500mm (subject to wind loads), this system can be<br />
easily integrated into most modern building facade designs.<br />
The glass is available in clear, low iron, tinted or colourback, the<br />
mullions in a range of powdercoat and anodised options, the<br />
handrail design options are limitless, and the switching control to<br />
open and close the louvres can be integrated with other systems to<br />
provide a fully seamless electronic control system.

Louvre Details<br />
Linear actuators are mounted on the inside surface of the mullions<br />
above head level. They are totally noise free and are able to<br />
completely open the louvres in under 20 seconds.<br />
The louvre mechanisms are made of 316 marine grade stainless steel.<br />
The axles are contained in nylon bushes, meaning that no lubrication<br />
is required and consistently quiet operation is achieved.<br />
The louvre blades are 12mm clear toughened glass with bevelled<br />
edges to offer drip protection in the enclosed space and better<br />
drainage to the exterior face of the glass.
