Bring Brickwork to Life with Keyslip
Keystone Lintels’ visionary Keyslip range includes fully structural steel backed Brick Feature Lintels and non-structural, cement fibre board backed Lightweight Brick Headers and sills. The Keyslip range offers alternative revenue streams and tangible profit opportunities for merchants in a challenging and competitive market.
As architects and homeowners look to create detailed and appealing brickwork and facades, traditional masonry techniques can prove time and cost intensive. Keyslip, from Keystone Lintels, provides merchants with an effective offsite alternative, helping meet customer needs without the heavy price tag. Leading to character without the cost!
Making the exceptional achievable and affordable has consistently presented challenges in the construction sector. With Keyslip, that doesn’t have to be the case. Brick soffits, deep reveals and flying beams are now easy to achieve, enabling customers and end users to create unique façades on time and on budget.
Offering performance benefits akin to those of brick, prefabricated brick solutions can help the industry in a myriad of ways including providing a practical product solution to the shortage of skilled bricklayers. To overcome this issue, prefabricated solutions have been tipped as a potential answer, as they negate the need for a high number of skilled craftspeople onsite and enable complex brickwork detail to be carried out in a factory-controlled environment.
Keystone Lintels is looking to work with merchants to address this issue and enable them to provide cost effective but impactful solutions to their customers. Offering customers a service and product choice, not widely available in the merchant or construction market.
Plus, Keystone Lintels will work with merchants and their customers to manufacture bespoke solutions. Using offsite construction means that genuine character can be added without significant cost or time increases. For the merchant customer, the possibilities are endless, as Keyslip lintels can accommodate a large range of bond patterns in order to create everything from segmental and flat gauged arches, to gothic and parabolic arches, as well as apex and bullseye arches.
In order to achieve the most imaginative and innovative architectural brick designs, Keystone offers a technically advanced, offsite solution for an extensive range of brick slip installations, from flat gauge voussoirs to radius arch lintels, with varying degrees of brick return soffit to conceal any steelwork.
