Louvered screens versus engineered louvered screen systems.

PalmSHIELD louvers are not just any louvered screen manufacturer.  PalmSHIELD is an engineered louvered system manufacturer.  What does this boil-down to for you?  We review every project for the following conditions.

  • Where is the louvered screen system going to be located?  If a rooftop unit, the system may be exposed to wind tunnels or sheer winds.
  • What is the overall height of the louvered screen system?  This will significantly impact post, plate and gusset solutions.  This factor also determines panel widths and panel ribbing.
  • What are we attaching the system to relative to your surface?  A flat concrete slab poses a significantly different situation than a concrete knee wall or parapet wall.
  • What are the type of gates that include slide, swing, overhead, etc.?  Sometimes, a slide gate is a much better solution than a swing gate.  PalmSHIELD is unique in that we provide a wide array of gate and door solutions.
  • What are the sizes of gates you want to include in your system?  PalmSHIELD has been providing gate solutions for over fifty years.  We understand the structural considerations of large swing and slide gates.

There are dozens and dozens of louvered screen manufacturers who build and inventory stock louvered screens.  PalmSHIELD is very unique in that we don’t simply manufacturer louvered screens but we manufacture systems that work.  So, if you or your customer needs a 20’ tall louvered screen system with customized gate hardware, transom panels and one-of-a-kind doors like this customer; you have come to the right place.
