Changes to shutter specification - July 2024

As of July 2024, we have made some changes to our specification that require communication, so please read the below changes and keep these in mind when speaking to your customers. 

 

Running change for Georgia MDF+ stile 

  • From July onwards there will be a running change from the Chamfer stile on the left to the stile on the right which is currently used on Montana.
  • Beaded stiles will still be available
  • Partial panel RGAs will match the original order where the old style stile was used.
  • Full panel RGAs (in one shutter) will use the new style stile

The following hang strip is removed from both Georgia and Boston

  • 24.5mm x 41.3mm hang strip
  • 25.4mm x 50.8mm hang strip

 

Gap between Tier on Tier panels (all shutter types apart from Hollywood) 

  • Nien have updated their specification to change the gap on tier on tier panels to the following: “The standard gap at top and bottom of the panel and frame is 2.54mm, the gap between Tier on Tier panels is 1mm”


All marketing collateral has been updated to represent these changes and all orders that are currently in process and orders going forward will automatically have these changes applied. 

 

Thank you for your continued support.
