interest and imagination of architects for

over 50 years. C/S Grille designs are both

functional and decorative and offer an

intricate counterpoint to conventional

building materials. All C/S Geometric

building requirements and can be

customized in dozens of ways, including

altering the blade style, slope or frame

and the finish of each pattern. C/S Grille

engineers are ready to assist you in the

selection of the proper system and

method of anchorage for your specific

project. Call (800) 631-7379 for details.

C/S Parking Garage Screens provide an

aesthetic architectural solution to

the engineering problem of garage

ventilation and vision control. Capable

of spanning large openings for multiple

parking levels, C/S Parking Screens offer

vision protection to adjacent buildings

and the street below from automobile

headlights. C/S Vision Barriers are offered

in a wide array of patterns, varying in

width depth and free area for adequate

air exchange. From simple vertical lines

to elaborate designs, C/S Parking Screens

can span normal floor levels without

intermediate supports.

All C/S Decorative Grilles are available in a wide selection of frame options or can be installed in a continuous architectural line for a monolithic appearance. All C/S Grille connections are designed to be unobtrusive yet safely meet the building’s wind loading requirements.

Most C/S screening systems can be designed to satisfy parking garage code requirements for free area movement (ie, 50% open, no sprinkler system required). C/S has considerable experience designing connections to parking garages that allow for deck movement from both vehicles and movement associated with seismic activity.

C/S Refacing Systems C/S equipment Screens

the renovation of existing buildings is

not only environmentally responsible

but refacing is also an economic

alternative to developing a new

structure. C/S refacing Systems are

tailored to meet both the owner’s budget

and the building’s architecture. the C/S

Grille Design Group can provide the

specifier with a wide variety of refacing

options to meet the project’s functional

requirements, including which C/S Grille

product is best suited to provide the

appropriate coverage, free area and

screening requirements.

C/S equipment Screens are designed

to conceal any equipment that can

spoil the appearance of a building. our

equipment screens can be used on roof

tops to screen air conditioning, heating

and ventilation systems, or at ground level

to enclose generators, waste bins or other

auxiliary equipment. offered in numerous

vertical or horizontal designs, these

vision barriers integrate beautifully

into the buildings architecture. Height,

width and blade spacing of each pattern

provides the specifier with options for the

amount of sight cut-off and free area that

the screen will provide.
