Top Perforated Metal Patterns: Round-end Slot

What do you get if you cross a rectangle with a circle? One of Arrow Metal’s most requested and popular standard perforated metal patterns – the round-end slot.

More stylish than a square, more chic than a circle and softer than a rectangle, the round-end slot – a rectangle with curved edges and ends – is the best of all worlds for architects and designers.

Project examples: Round-end slot perforated metal patterns

Take a look at these Arrow Metal projects to see how round-end slot perforated metal patterns can be used in different ways:

George St Precinct, Sydney

The revival of iconic George Street in the heart of Sydney is a huge project for the city, with one of its key elements a new corporate tower. Arrow Metal manufactured the perforated metal panels for the complex’s super-sized lobby lifts and elevators. The panels feature round-end slot perforations, a shape specified specifically for its high-end, elegant and sophisticated look and lighting effects when back-lit.

NewSpace, University of Newcastle

NewSpace is the University of Newcastle’s $95m landmark and multi award-winning education precinct.

A next-generation learning campus, NewSpace has unique indoor/outdoor learning booths, which use perforated metal screen walls made by Arrow Metal.

The specified slimline round-end slot pattern – number 376 – gives the walls enough transparency whilst maintaining privacy and the incredible architecture of the building.

But these weren’t the only reasons this pattern was chosen. It also met wind-resistance criteria in an area known for its blustery climate, ensuring minimal noise and comfort for students.
