Ventilation, privacy & screening

Louvers & Facade Screens

Jubili coordinates louvers and facade screens around shade, airflow, privacy, access and the overall building expression.

Balance the open area

Blade direction and spacing are selected around airflow, viewing angles, shade, exposure and the main purpose of the screen.

Let air through. Control what the facade reveals.

Jubili fabricates aluminium louver panels and facade screens that balance airflow, privacy, shade, appearance and access.

The same blade arrangement cannot maximise every outcome at once. Tighter screening may improve privacy but reduce open area; a sun-shading orientation may not manage wind-driven rain. The design starts by ranking the priorities for the opening.

Frame size, support points, blade direction, spacing, module divisions, finish and future cleaning access are coordinated with the building elevation and the surrounding structure.

Do aluminium louvers provide ventilation and privacy?

They can balance both, but the result depends on blade angle, spacing, viewing direction and required open area. The design should follow the project’s main priority.

What we design & fabricate

A system shaped around the way the space works.

These are starting points, not fixed packages. Dimensions, configuration, material choices and installation details are developed around the surveyed conditions and agreed scope.

Ventilation panels

Framed louver modules for openings that need airflow with a more screened appearance than an open grille.

  • Horizontal or vertical fixed blades
  • Measured opening-specific modules
  • Optional backing only when specified

Privacy screens

Architectural screens positioned around direct views, balconies, boundaries and occupied service areas.

  • Viewing-angle consideration
  • Repeated panel rhythm
  • Custom finish subject to availability

Facade & plant screening

Larger visual screens that conceal equipment or utility zones while retaining planned ventilation and access.

  • Intermediate support and brackets
  • Access panel coordination
  • Alignment across the elevation
Decision guide

Choose the priority before the detail.

Comparing the intended outcome first makes the eventual specification clearer and more useful.

Priority viewBlade arrangement follows the performance hierarchy, viewing angle and facade context.
Start with the outcome

Start with airflow, shade or screening—then rank what comes second.

A louver system becomes useful when the main performance goal is clear and the trade-offs between open area, privacy, rain and appearance are understood.

  • 01
    Air movement

    Define the required free area and what sits behind the screen or vent.

  • 02
    Viewing control

    Check sightlines from inside, outside and neighbouring properties at real eye levels.

  • 03
    Exposure & care

    Consider sun angle, wind-driven rain, access, cleaning and finish durability.

Airflow priority

Retains a larger open area and treats privacy or rain screening as secondary outcomes.

Best suited to
Plant spaces, vents and service rooms
Plan for
Blade resistance and required free area

Privacy priority

Uses blade angle and sightline planning to reduce direct views through an opening.

Best suited to
Balconies, washrooms and boundaries
Plan for
Approach angles and reduced openness

Shade priority

Orients blades in response to the facade and direct solar exposure where practical.

Best suited to
Sun-exposed openings and facade features
Plan for
Orientation, time of day and retained daylight
System anatomy

The details behind the finish.

Each line item is considered together. The quotation should record the final selected materials, inclusions, interfaces and responsibilities for the specific site.

Primary objective

Airflow, privacy, shade, rain screening, equipment concealment and appearance are ranked before geometry is selected.

Blade direction

Horizontal or vertical blades influence sightlines, facade rhythm, drainage and the direction of solar screening.

Spacing & open area

Blade pitch affects airflow and visibility; any calculated requirement must be confirmed for the actual application.

Frame & support

Opening size, wind exposure, module width and available structure guide frames, intermediate supports and anchors.

Backing & access

Mesh, backing panels or service access are included only where specified and technically suitable.

Exterior finish

Colour and finish are selected from available supplier ranges and should be maintained with suitable non-abrasive cleaning.

From brief to handover

A clear path from idea to installation.

Good fabrication starts with the right information. Each stage narrows uncertainty before site work begins.

What the sequence protects

Performance priorities become a buildable screen module.

Survey and configuration resolve blade direction, support, module size and facade junctions before repetitive panels are prepared.

01

Prioritise

Establish whether airflow, privacy, shading, screening or appearance is the main goal.

02

Survey

Measure the opening and review exposure, viewing angles, access and surrounding structure.

03

Configure

Determine blade orientation, spacing, module sizes, frames and finish.

04

Approve

Confirm elevations, panel divisions, fixing assumptions and any access provisions.

05

Fabricate

Assemble louver panels and supporting frames to the approved arrangement.

06

Install

Position, align and anchor modules, then inspect access and provide cleaning guidance.

Clear answers

Louvers & Facade Screens FAQs

Practical answers to common early-stage questions. Site-specific decisions are confirmed after review.

Do louvers provide both ventilation and privacy?
They can balance both, but blade spacing and viewing angle affect the result. More screening can also reduce open area, so the design should follow the main priority.
Are aluminium louvers rainproof?
Standard architectural louvers should not be presented as waterproof. Blade shape, angle, depth, backing, wind and exposure determine how much wind-driven rain can pass.
Can louver panels be made to custom dimensions?
Yes. Dimensions and module divisions can be planned around the measured opening, available profile system, structural support, access and fabrication limits.
Can louvers hide outdoor equipment?
They can visually screen selected plant or utility zones while retaining planned airflow, but required maintenance clearance and manufacturer ventilation needs must remain available.
How are exterior louvers maintained?
Remove dust and trapped debris, wash with non-abrasive products, and periodically inspect finish, brackets, fixings and surrounding drainage.
