Lightweight Arches

Lightweight Arches clad in any type of brick create areas of seamless brickwork above doorways and window openings.
Picture
Our lightweight Arch System comprising of a polyurethane foam core or lightweight blocks between two SIPCO cement particle boards with brick slips bonded to make the arch depth of 102mm overall. This Arch provides a lightweight solution for quick installation without the need for lifting equipment. 

Manufactured in any brick type with the bricks collected from site to guarantee a perfect colour match. 
Lightweight arches are quick and easy to install and economical to use with a "bigger picture" cost saving compared to building arches on site. ​

Fab-Lite will guarantee it's brick arches for a period of 15 years on lightweight brick arches from the date of purchase against faulty materials and workmanship.

Arch Styles.

A typical flat arch suitable for all kinds of openings. Flat Gauge Arches usually have a Brick & Bat pattern and are made between 3 to 5 courses high. 
Picture
Segmental Arch
Segmental Arches are made up of a number of identically and slightly angled bricks which form the shape of the arch when assembles. 
Picture
Raised Flat Gauge Arch
​Like the Flat Gauge Arch, but with an arched rise along the bottom edge, whilst the top of the arch remains flat. We can also incorporate a solid infill panel too. 
Picture
Soldier Lintel
The Soldier Lintel is a simple but effective design and is built with bricks laid on end with stretcher faces showing. 
Picture
Semi Circular Arch
Like Segmental Arches each brick is the same, but the shape is continued round to form a semi-circle. Keystones are optional and can be included. 
Picture
Bulls Eye Arch
​
Also known as a Circular Arch, the Bulls Eye is an attractive feature and is still very popular. Keystones are optional and can be included.
