Easyscreen is an aluminium framing system that is specifically designed for use with Altair Louvres. The system complements the full range of Altair features including Powerlouvre, Stronghold, handle options and keylocks as well as fixed light bays, externally fixed screening, security bars, sub framing system, bushfire compliance and a high strength design for cyclonic regions.
A single louvre window bay contained within a single frame.
Multiple louvre window bays contained within a single frame, separated by mullions.
Louvre fixed lite combinations (featuring keylock) are contained within a single frame with louvres and fixed lites separated by mullions.
The Easyscreen Window System features an (optional) integrated D bar security system. To suit 152mm louvre only.
Online viewing of 3D models is a relatively new technology. Please note the models shown below are rendered animations only. For more technical detail please view the CAD and BIM model section below. Viewing 3D models requires a fast internet connection and reasonably high speed computer processor. Viewing may not be possible on some older computers. We recommend Google Chrome for the best viewing results.
NOTE: Whenever you see this symbol click on an illustration to view a 3D interactive version. Rotate the model by using your left mouse button or pan the model by using your right mouse button. Use your mouse wheel to zoom. Please note this is a rendered model only. For more technical detail please see the CAD and BIM Model section below.
For projects where sub framing is the preferred installation method, Sub Framing is available for the Easyscreen Window System.
For Window heights ≤ 791mm: Combined Window and Sub Framing height = Window height + approximately* 45mm
For Window heights ≥ 792mm: Combined Window and Sub Framing height = Window height + approximately* 30mm
Combined Window and Jamb Angles width = Window Width + approximately* 24mm *To be confirmed by installer.
Security bars are an effective barrier when the louvre is open, that unlike screens do not reduce any air flow.
Breezway has security bars available to fit 152mm (6”) blade heights with 16mm diameter solid aluminium bars fixed to the window frame to the outside of the blades and positioned to allow the window to open fully.
Altair Security Bars will have a moderate effect on views with 16mm solid bars and 124mm vertical spacings between bars.
While Altair Louvre Windows can be manufactured in any size specified, the wind and water rating for the building project will affect the maximum allowable window height and bay width. Please refer to the Altair Product Performance Warranty for technical information.
For standard heights in the Breezway Easyscreen Frame please see the size chart on the right. Off Standard heights are available but this will add cost and result in a fixed louvre blade to act as a filler piece. The sizes for Altair Powerlouvres in an Easyscreen Frame are also highlighted on the right.
Please note:
There are no standard Altair Louvre widths. The desired window width can be achieved through multiple louvre bays (maximum bay width is 4000mm). The bay width may be affected by Building code rules. Please discuss with your Breezway Dealer and builder.
