Nexia Aluminium Batten System

Aluminium Battens for Modern Screening and Fencing

The Nexia Aluminium Batten System is a complete two-part batten solution designed for professional-looking installations. The back fixing clip is secured to the supporting surface, then the front batten snaps neatly into place to create a clean concealed-fixing finish.

This no-weld system makes Nexia suitable for a wide range of applications, including privacy screens, boundary fencing, pool area screening, garden features, pergola screens, balcony screens, facade details and decorative wall features.

Battens can be installed vertically, horizontally or on an angle, giving you flexibility to create the look and level of privacy required for your project.

Why Choose Nexia Aluminium Battens?

Low-Maintenance Alternative to Timber

Timber battens can require regular painting, staining and sealing to maintain their appearance. Nexia battens are made from aluminium, offering a durable and low-maintenance option for outdoor and architectural screening.

Powder coated aluminium does not need ongoing repainting in the same way timber often does, making it a practical long-term choice for homes, outdoor areas and commercial spaces.

Weather and Insect Resistant

Aluminium is not affected by termites, insects, rot or warping like timber can be. Its non-porous surface also helps resist mould, mildew and fungi.

This makes Nexia aluminium battens well suited to exposed outdoor environments, including fences, screens, pool surrounds, garden areas and building facades.

Rust-Free Aluminium Construction

Aluminium does not rust, making it ideal for exterior screening and fencing projects. When finished with powder coating or timber-look imaging, Nexia battens provide long-lasting visual appeal with minimal upkeep.

Fire-Conscious Material Choice

Aluminium is non-combustible and does not burn like timber. In extreme heat, aluminium will melt rather than act as fuel.

For projects where material selection and fire performance are important considerations, aluminium battens can be a practical alternative to traditional timber screens.

Lightweight Yet Strong

Aluminium is significantly lighter than steel while still offering excellent strength for screening and architectural applications. Nexia battens are extruded to achieve clean lines, reliable performance and easier handling during installation.

Nexia battens are available in a range of popular finishes to suit modern residential and commercial designs.

Installation Options

Nexia battens can be fixed to suitable substrates using the correct fixing method for the project. They may be installed to walls, posts, horizontal rails, roof structures or other approved supporting surfaces.

For concrete or masonry installations, chemical anchors and threaded fixings may be suitable depending on the design. For timber installations, appropriate screws or lag fixings may be used where compatible with the selected batten profile.

The supporting structure and fixing method should always be assessed for the specific site conditions, including height, wind exposure and intended use. Engineering advice is recommended for structural applications, elevated installations or high wind areas.
