Aluminium Louvers
and Skylights لوفرات ألمنيوم ومناور
Aluminium louvers help control sunlight while allowing airflow, while skylights and glass roofs bring natural light into atriums, malls, and entrances. Saudi Aluminium Works provides louvers, skylights, glass canopies, and winter garden solutions for commercial and residential projects across Saudi Arabia.
Sun Shading Louvers in Saudi Arabia
In Saudi Arabia, most of a glazed building’s heat gain comes from direct sun on the glass. Exterior solar shading stops that heat before it reaches the window, which is far more effective than blinds inside. A well-designed louver system can:
- Reduce cooling loads and energy costs
- Achieve major SHGC reduction on exposed elevations, helping meet SBC 601
- Cut glare in offices, classrooms and hospital rooms
- Keep views out and daylight in
WHAT WE OFFER
Types of Louver Systems
Aerofoil Louvers
Wing-shaped aerofoil louver blades from 150 to 600 mm wide span long distances with minimal deflection and stay quiet in high winds.
Fixed Brise Soleil
Horizontal or vertical brise-soleil blades cut solar heat gain with optimal sun control for every facade orientation.
Motorized Sun Louvers
Motorized sun louvers adjust automatically to sunlight and wind, optimizing shade, daylight, and energy efficiency with smart BMS integration.
Screen and Continuous Louvers
Continuous louver screens conceal plant rooms, car parks, and service areas while keeping air flowing. For patterned designs, see our perforated panels.
Winter Garden Systems
Winter garden systems enclose balconies and terraces with sliding or folding glass panels, providing year-round comfort, protection from Saudi Arabia’s heat, dust, and noise, and a consistent modern facade design.
Glass Canopies
Our glass canopy systems protect entrances, walkways, and drop-off areas from sun and rain while maintaining a modern, open appearance. Options include cantilevered, aluminium-framed, spider-glass, and combined glass-and-louver canopies.
Aluminium Pergola Systems
Our bioclimatic aluminium pergolas feature adjustable louvers for airflow or a watertight roof with integrated drainage. Ideal for villas, rooftops, hotels, and courtyards, they offer optional LED lighting, side screens, fans, and motorized controls.
Applications
Our architectural solutions include motorized louvers for office towers, skylights for malls and airports, glass canopies for hotels and hospitals, balcony shading for residential towers, and pergolas and sliding screens for villas and resorts.
Architectural Skylights
An architectural skylight brings daylighting deep into the building, which reduces artificial lighting during the day. We manufacture:
- Ridge and pyramid skylights for atriums and lobbies
- Barrel vault and curved glass roofs for malls and transport hubs
- Flat and mono-pitch skylights for villas and courtyards
- Opening skylights with motorized vents for smoke extraction and natural ventilation
Designed for Saudi Sun and Sand
Glazing
laminated safety glass on the inner pane, with low-E and solar-control coatings to limit heat gain through the glass roof
Drainage design
minimum slopes, concealed gutters and overflow outlets, designed for rare but heavy rainstorms and for sand build-up
Thermal break framing
prevents condensation and heat transfer through the aluminium structure
Sand and dust
integrated louvers or fritted glass over atriums with strong sun exposure
Request a Sun Shading Study
Send us your elevations, building orientation and location. Our engineers will run a sun-path analysis and recommend blade type, angle and spacing, or a skylight design, with a budget estimate within 7 working days. We supply louvers and skylights from Al Khobar to Riyadh, Jeddah, Dammam and giga-projects across Saudi Arabia.
