Secret Fix Coping

Finish Architectural’s secret fix coping is the answer to a weatherproof and aesthetically pleasing coping system.

Secret fix coping eliminates the need to pierce the coping, allowing for movement which ameliorates expansion stresses. Secret fix coping is installer-friendly for a swift and straightforward installation, which further transfers to an easy disassembly and removal for repair or replacement.

The system is supported by brackets, which are supplied pre-drilled by Finish Architectural; brackets are produced in the same finish as your coping for complete unity across the system.

It is further weatherproof, supported by waterproofed joints, allowing water to run away from the wall.

Our secret fix coping accounts for roof covering of any thickness to be dressed up inside of the parapet on the roof side if necessary.

Finish Architectural work closely with our clients to understand project specifications; our systems can be created to facilitate corners, junctions, stop ends and up stands, as well as junctions between dissimilar shapes.

FAQs About Aluminium Copings

Welcome to our FAQ page about Aluminium Copings. Here, we aim to provide concise and accurate answers to common questions about Aluminium Copings in the UK.

What is an Aluminium coping?

Aluminium coping is a finishing or protective cap installed atop parapet or boundary walls. It is primarily used to prevent water ingress, protect the structure from potential water damage, and also enhance the building's appearance.

Aluminium is favoured for its durability, lightweightness, and resistance to corrosion, making it a suitable material for coping with various environmental conditions.

How Thick Should Aluminium Copings Be?

Aluminium copings are typically supplied in a standard thickness of 2mm. However, the thickness can be adjusted, ranging up to 3mm, based on specific project needs such as the coping width and various site conditions.

Our Aluminium copings are usually crafted to meet bespoke requirements, ensuring that they align perfectly with each building project's unique specifications and demands. Factors such as the building’s height, exposure to environmental elements, and span width are carefully considered to determine the most suitable thickness for the aluminium copings, ensuring their durability and stability in various conditions.
