ARKEN STORM · Heavy-Duty Rain Louvre Roof

ARKEN STORM — Heavy-duty rain-management architecture.

ARKEN STORM is the rotating-louvre pathway for projects where larger bay geometry and rain-management architecture are primary design drivers. It uses the current heavy-duty ARKEN platform with wider blade and beam-gutter architecture while keeping final drainage capacity, loading and exposure performance project-specific.

Current technical reference

Useful specification for early project planning.

These figures are drawn from current product information. They are planning references, not a substitute for the final project-specific engineering and documentation package.

Roof behaviourMotorised rotating aluminium louvres

Rain-management architectureWider blade + beam-gutter pathway

The current heavy-duty platform is promoted for increased drainage capability; project rainfall intensity and discharge design still require confirmation.

Why this pathway exists

Architecture first. Product model second.

01

Use the heavier pathway where rain matters

ARKEN STORM separates the rain-focused heavy-duty rotating roof from the standard and reduced-column ARKEN pathways so the project intent is clear from the outset.

02

Cover larger reference bays

Current planning references extend to 4.5 × 7 m on four posts and 9 × 6.5 m on six posts, subject to final engineering for the actual destination and configuration.

03

Treat drainage as architecture

Wider blade and beam-gutter geometry supports the rain-management intent, while downpipe routing, site discharge and verified drainage capacity remain part of project design.

04

Keep performance claims controlled

Wind, snow and rainfall-capacity figures are not turned into public guarantees until model-specific evidence and project conditions are confirmed.

Project technical note

ARKEN STORM dimensions are manufacturer planning references, not blanket structural or weather guarantees. Final loading, wind, rainfall, drainage capacity, fixings and compliance are confirmed for the exact project.
