I am an Architectural Technologist currently working on developing details of a storefront in Toronto; I want to see if we could have a kind of detail for Alucobond combined with detail of windows Head attached, I would much appreciate if you could advise since the detail I’ve downloaded from your website is nominal.

I also like to know if you have a baseboard protector for aluminium panels against snow and salt.
