The Super Duty Eaves Beam allows confident specification of folding/sliding doors (or indeed any type of opening such as in-line sliders where additional spanning performance is needed).

• Structural 'beefier' aluminium profile that uses existing pvc components to clad and cap for optimum performance.


• Sits 38mm taller than the standard eaves beam (remember this when calculating overall ridge heights). Be aware especially where height is critical, such as where windows above may foul or overhanging bungalow fascias.


• Needs to be specified all the way round the nominated conservatory and NOT simply on the facet into which the doors are to be fitted ( this is critical when calculating the uplift price)


• Readily interfaces with box gutters and Gable Support Beam, to offer maximum integration and configurability.


• Can be specified at pitches from 5-40° and in all existing Ultraframe classic colours.


• The span charts on the page opposite need to be studied carefully BEFORE conservatory selling and design starts........the elevation into which the doors are to be fitted, the style of conservatory and the 'span onto' dimension all affect the maximum allowable width of opening when using the Super Duty Eaves Beam.


• If your conservatory design requires an opening width greater than that which can be offered with the Super Duty Eaves beam, then a portal/goalpost arrangement will be needed – please call 0870 414 1002 if you need a custom solution.


IMPORTANT NOTE FOR DESIGNERS/SPECIFIERS


We advise that a support post (not supplied) is used each side of the doors – this needs to attach to the Super Duty Eaves Beam and attach to the floor slab. It is the responsibility of the conservatory designer/specifier to provide full lateral and vertical support for the Super Duty Eaves Beam – loads are likely to be higher than conservatory retailers are used to.
