Fora, Head Office / Stockholm
Architect: Indicum Arkitekter
Metal Mesh: Chainex 07
Material: Stainless Steel 316L
In cooperation with Tenant & Partner AB we have created a metal curtain with lock for FORAS head office and their computer room
in Stockholm. The metal curtain is created with single welded rings that glides in a rail, both in upper
and lower edge. As the metal curtain is very flexible we have mounted vertical profiles on each side of the metal mesh,
which then is locked towards the wall.
Materials used
Metal mesh RM.07 (formerly Chainex 07) is a mesh composed of fully welded rings. Each ring is connected to four rings. The specific welding technique makes it very strong and resistant to deformation. The size of the metal mesh RM.07 rings makes it slightly more elastic than ring fabric SL with the smaller ring. The panels are produced in the standard size of 500 x 500 mm and can be easily joined together to form larger installations. Special dimensions are offered on request. The metal curtains are preferably ordered about 2-3 cm longer as they are often finished resting on the floor. The construction of the metal mesh means that it can fall somewhat unevenly in height.
The mesh can also be enameled in different colors such as silver, gunmetal, bronze, gold, light gold, black, white or plated in custom colors. The metal mesh is suitable for interior decoration such as room dividers, metal curtains, products, etc.
It is fire and UV resistant, stable against moisture and mold, and requires minimal maintenance.
