It’s been a while since our last complete EDGE catalogue update in late 2017. So much has changed within the U-MAX, MAX, and GEN ranges, and we’re eager to share it all with you.

A review of changes across the ranges

• The updated catalogues feature fresh project images, illustrating new and relevant applications. More project images are featured on edgearchitectural.com.au in the project gallery.
• You’ll find assembly procedures with illustrative photos and explanations in all three catalogues, including how to seal a frame joints and how to fit a watershed. The appropriate sealing of a product and the redirection of water is a critical part of any long-term performing system.

The MAX catalogue

New and updated:

• MAX 100 Front Double Glaze – 20 degree splayed coupler added to the range
• New MAX 150mm Front Double Glaze 40mm pocket, internal glazed sill/transom
• MAX 150mm Truth head/sill, which can be used on both front glazed and offset glazed suites
• SG182 Rocket Mullion added to the range
• New MAX Sliding Window, complementing the U-MAX version released in 2018
• Change to the Bifold Door, a new Pivot Set conceals head machining and makes it simpler to load rolling gear into the head
• MAX Sliding Door, Glaze-in Frame Option allows “zero threshold” sill and reduces assembly costs and metal costs
• MAX Sliding Door acoustic door panel is more elegant, cheaper, and functionally superior at achieving the optimum glass separation for acoustics compared to the typical practice of a two-panel door fitted inside a two-panel door to create a 100mm airspace. Our new arrangement uses a fixed panel which improves the function and appearance of the door significantly, together with resolving roller adjustment issues and the inability to clean between the “sandwiched” sliding panel
• MAX Sliding Door 100mm deep door rail, with two screw flutes for visual appearance and strength
• New Curtain Wall bracketry, extending the use of these brackets with our three curtain wall systems
• New Heavy Duty 150mm sub head because the nature of our projects tend to be larger buildings and engineers are more closely scrutinising sub frame strength
• Rationalisation and redevelopment of 100mm and 150mm sub framing for more versatility and strength
• SG182 sub head introduced which can be used unbroken and thermally broken
• Sub Framing, new expressed 70mm and 200mm rectangular box sub jamb/sub sills, as shading and privacy is becoming more important these offer a unique way to “frame” a window
• Tilt Only and Turn Only hardware options added to the tilt and turn window

The U-MAX Catalogue

New and updated:

• The addition of SG182 thermally broken structural glazed as a framing system; SG182 has a 40mm rebate and is coming into its own in dealing with large spans and acoustic IGU makeups of 32-34mm
• New CW142 thermally broken curtain wall; our versatile Polyamide beaded curtain wall creates a number of rebate depths, reaches less than 1.8Uw ratings, and tested to comply with Passive House air infiltration ratings; as NCC 2019 takes effect, our industry will require significantly improved window systems to comply with the more stringent energy requirements
• Added a Sub Frames section in the catalogue
• Added a Glazing Adaptors section to allow thermally glazed adaptors to be more easily found
• Change to the Bifold Door, with a new Pivot Set which conceals head machining and makes it simpler to load rolling gear into the head
• U-MAX Sliding Door redesigned door stile to Polyamide which improves the appearance of the product and easier adaption of mortice locks
• Tilt Only and Turn Only hardware options added to the tilt and turn window.
