Exclusive fixing system for ventilated rainscreen façades: EJOT® PEARLOCK for ALPOLIC™ façade cassettes
The perfect combination of aesthetics and installation efficiency
Contemporary architecture demands clean lines, narrow joints and flawless façade surfaces. At the same time, façade contractors are under increasing pressure to deliver projects efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of workmanship.
To meet both requirements, EJOT® and ALPOLIC™ have jointly developed the innovative PEARLOCK® system. This patented keyhole fixing system enables the concealed installation of ALPOLIC™ aluminium composite façade cassettes, creating a seamless, high-quality façade appearance while significantly simplifying installation.
Patented keyhole technology for greater on-site efficiency
The key advantage of the PEARLOCK® system lies in its intelligent keyhole fixing technology. An integrated conical alignment guide ("Cap") makes hanging the façade cassettes considerably easier, allowing fast and precise positioning – even in restricted visibility conditions.
The result:
• Reduced installation time
• Lower installation effort
• Fewer installation errors
• Greater installation reliability
• Improved project efficiency
In addition, narrow joints and shallow cassette depths create a clean, elegant façade appearance.
Key benefits at a glance:
• Concealed fixing with no visible screws or rivets
• Patented keyhole fixing system for fast and precise installation
• Narrow joints (approx. 10 mm) and shallow cassette depths (approx. 25 mm) for seamless façade designs
• Integrated fixed-point and sliding-point solution to safely accommodate thermal expansion
• Suitable for aluminium, steel and timber support structures
• Ideal for large-format ALPOLIC™ aluminium composite façade cassettes
• Individual cassettes can be removed and replaced without damaging the façade
• Suitable for complex geometries and bespoke façade designs
Optimised for ALPOLIC™ aluminium composite panels
The exceptional stiffness of ALPOLIC™ aluminium composite panels provides the ideal basis for the PEARLOCK® system. It enables the production of large-format, dimensionally stable façade cassettes with outstanding flatness, ensuring consistently high façade quality.
Combined with the innovative EJOT® fixing technology, the result is a perfectly matched system that brings together architectural quality, installation efficiency and cost-effective construction.
