Ohio Gratings, Inc. has a new division of their company called OGi Architectural Metal Solutions. This division has been created to
expand into the architectural metals market providing aluminum, carbon and stainless steel products for projects requiring architectural
applications such as sunshades, grilles, fencing, handrail infill, building facades, louvers, fountains, tree grates and ADA
walking surfaces.
In conjunction with this newly created architectural metal division, another joint venture with Ohio Gratings, Inc. took place in 2007
with American Metalco, Florida. American Metalco brings experience in architectural design, planning, engineering, fabrication,
project management and installation services while providing architectural systems for a product line of screening, grilles, louvers,
cladding systems, awnings, canopies, sunshades, bahama shutters, metal fencing, walkways and signature structures.
Custom fabrication and special finishes are available for all our architectural metal product lines. Our architectural metal products
are aesthetically appealing, easy to install, lightweight yet strong, field adaptable, require minimal maintenance and are reasonably
priced.

LOUVERS
Louver products are manufactured from aluminum extrusions. Louvers come with a two-piece integrated aluminum frame, are
available in various finishes to enhance the overall appearance and offer total or partial visual concealment while allowing a minimum
of 63% open air flow. These products are ideal for visual barriers requiring open airflow, enhanced security and are resistant
to corrosion in both harsh tropical & winter environments.

GRILLES
Aluminum Egg-Crate grilles are manufactured from both aluminum extrusions and cold-formed carbon steel. With a wide variety of
mesh openings, wind, snow and water pass through with ease, substantially reducing wind and snow loading concerns. Grilles are
ideally suited for exterior applications where security, shading and privacy are paramount while being aesthetically pleasing. The
open mesh grilles allow for natural ventilation, day lighting and site lines in and out. Aluminum grilles are a “Green” application by
reducing interior heat gain and solar glare. In cold environments, the open design of screens will minimize excessive “snow loading”
issues.
