Artistry in Architectural Grilles
February 10, 2016
The Challenge
A large global construction company was under extremely tight scheduling constraints to complete a Five Star hotel. The project required several complicated designs that included custom developed patterns, mirror polished grilles, a large complete radius floor grille and geometrically shaped lobby center piece grilles.
Complex Issues
- The sizes, shapes and materials of the grilles varied widely
- The custom laser cut pattern
- A specific bronze statuary finish required an exact match
- The weight the material created a size limitation while the aesthetics of the assembled unit needed to be maintained.
- There were radiuses, straights, miters and inlay sections that needed coordination
The Solution
- Within one week, Artistry in Architectural Grilles provided finish samples and mock-ups of the grilles required and shipped them by air
- Upon approval of finishes and submittal drawings, production was immediately started
- Full scale templates were created and followed to ensure exact fits
- All of the grilles were joined and assembled in-house, tagged and coordinated with drawings and assembly instructions to be used on the site
Success
All of the grilles were shipped on-time and arrived in excellent condition. The customer was elated with the quality of service, responsiveness and the way our product helped their project achieve success.
