Ali-Fabs by Guttercrest Aluminium Capping

Guttercrest has its own dedicated wall capping and coping brand. Ali-Fabs is a market leader in the manufacture of high quality wall cappings to the construction industry, with an established reputation for product performance, quality and reliability.

Manufactured from marine grade aluminium, the Ali-Fabs range of coping and capping is suitable for all applications, including: residential, commercial and industrial buildings.

Aluminium capping provides an aesthetically pleasing and economic finish to a parapet wall or boundary wall. Aluminium wall cappings are made specifically for each project to individual specifications, sizes and profiles. Guttercrest pressed metal cappings can be fabricated for ramped, stepped and serpentine parapet walls. Unlike stone wall cappings aluminium cappings are lightweight, versatile, adaptable and very quick to install while offering long term weatherproof parapet wall protection. Matching pier caps or column capping are also available.

The capping is fixed directly to a suitable background with no brackets.

Our standard cappings have a flat level top but are also available with weather struck or dual pitched top. We can incorporate a Bullnose, Ogee, I-beam or any other profile into the aluminium wall capping’s front face. For any specially fabricated aluminium architectural capping please contact our technical team on 01691 663300.

We manufacture aluminium wall capping fittings including angles, stop ends, T-junctions, raking angles, apex angles, upstand stop ends, stepped junctions between capping sizes – we offer a complete aluminium capping system.

We specialise in curved capping. If your project requires curved, radius or radii cappings, either true curve or facetted capping, give us a call. Horizontal, vertical, and most complex curves are achievable.

Aluminium capping systems are available polyester powder coated in a range of RAL and BS colours, heritage textured finish, metallic, and anodised coating. We can source special colours and finishes to match your project requirements or we can supply your cappings in the standard mill finish.
