Installation Systems

1-Piece, Tight-Fit Molding

Panel installation is easy using Laminators’ durable 1-piece moldings. A traditional yet high-tech appearance is obtained at an affordable cost. Both “H” and “reveal H” moldings are available. Unique effects can be obtained by combining our various installation systems.

Maintenance costs are low without concerns for water intrusion with Omega-Lite panels.

2-Piece, Snap-Fit Molding

You’ll like the contemporary look and the ease of “snap-fit” installation. Color-matched or contrasted aluminum molding snaps into place covering fastener heads and caulk beads. Both flat and reveal effects are easily obtained to give you the appearance you need at low cost.

All molding bases can be attached to a wall surface prior to panel placement, compared to other systems that require installation of molding for one panel at a time. 2-piece moldings are easily combined with other systems to provide a variety of design options.

Clip & Caulk™

Laminators has developed our unique Clip & Caulk system that greatly reduces the total installed cost for ACM panels. This easy, field-proven method is the choice of architects and installers who are looking for a very flat look without visible fasteners at the lowest installation cost. Panels can be cut onsite with few peripheral accessories needed for installation. You get a “rout & return” look for about half the cost.

Color-matched caulk gives a beautiful monochromatic look; contrasting caulk can be used with eye-pleasing results. Use Clip & Caulk in combination with masonry, glass, 1-piece, or 2-piece extruded molding systems or by itself. You’ll be pleased with the flexibility, the appearance, and especially the cost.

Dry Seal

Featuring a “deep reveal” look without caulk at the joints, Laminators’ dry seal installation is ideal for installing our Omega-Lite® panels and creates a high performance, pressure-equalized wall system that compartmentalizes the air cavity and allows for drainage and ventilation. This system reduces moisture-related issues within the wall cavity.

Rout & Return

You get a sophisticated, high-tech look with this installation system. Prefabricated panels can be panned onsite using standard carpentry tools to give a solid, finished appearance.

Excellent strength and a “deep-reveal” appearance are obtained for commercial and institutional installations. Rout & Return can be combined with other installation systems for a more economical, total installed cost.

Omega-Flex™ Curve Treatment

Typically, radial panel installations require costly engineering, shop fabrication, and difficult installation. Omega-Flex panels make such applications easy and inexpensive without sacrificing beauty; however, special panel configurations are required. Flex panels will conform to the curved shape of the structural support system without costly off-site roll-forming.

Panels fit correctly avoiding any installation delays caused by imprecise measurements. Omega-Flex panels must be installed with 1-piece, tight-fit moldings.
