Metal Networks for Authentic WECK®

Save Time, Money and Labor.Now
theres a faster, easier way to enhance any project, large or small, with authentic
glass block. Install genuine WECK glass blocks with any of three extruded metal BlokUp
systems.

|
| Full-frame extruded
aluminum system adds strength, saves labor. Now, WECK block windows can be preassembled off-site, like conventional windows.
(Installed quickly with optional nailing fins.) Or you can construct a framed wall of
blocks, on site, up to 150 sq. ft. and still save much time and labor. |
 |
| Framed curved-wall system for
design versatility, increased strength, added security. BlokUps exclusive connectable radius sections permit any
professional tradesman to create graceful curved walls of glass, indoors or out. Frame and
horizontal metal sections provide added strength for additional home security. Hinged
metal sections can be easily bent to fit any wall radius. |
 |

|
| Anchor Clip system provides
clean-line walls of glass block, without aesthetic or structural compromise. Special telescopic anchor clip permits unobstructed installations
without sacrificing strength or stability. System adapts to any-size opening. As with
framed systems, BlokUps Clip System adds the strength of horizontal metal beams. |

block sealant is applied to the center seam of the vertical edge of the block. The
vertical separator is inserted into the slot of the frame and against the glass block |

Sealant is applied to the center of the horizontal separator and on the sides of the
frame. Next, the first block of the second course is laid. Sealant is then applied to the
vertical side of the block, and the next vertical separator put in place. |

is next applied to the center seam of the first course. Next, the horizontal separator is
laid on the blocks, extending from slot to slot at the sides. More than a spacer, the
metal separator functions as a stiffener in every horizontal point. |
