QUADRAT FB systems feature distinct profile edges similar to the standard Quadrat system. The FB version is distinguished by its flush sash design, which visually creates a unified, seamless surface appearance. The special shape of the aluminum sash shifts the window pane 5⁄8″ (15 mm) further forward compared to conventional designs, allowing for the use of broader glazing with a thinner wood cross-section. This innovative design maximizes glass area while maintaining structural integrity.
QUADRAT FB lacks a visible slant and features crisp right angles on the surface of its profiles, creating clean, modern lines. Like other systems in the range, QUADRAT FB delivers exceptional functionality and excellent utility properties, making it suitable for windows, doors, facade elements, and winter gardens.
