Architectural joint covers for walls and ceiling movement joints.
Surface Mounted Wall & Ceiling Profiles are aluminium expansion joint cover systems installed directly onto finished wall and ceiling surfaces. They bridge structural movement joints while protecting exposed gaps, maintaining a neat appearance and allowing buildings to accommodate thermal expansion, contraction and seismic movement.
Surface mounted expansion joint covers for walls and ceilings, providing movement accommodation with clean architectural finishes.
Design professionals across the UAE and GCC rely on Dutco Tennant LLC for access to expansion joint solutions suited to commercial, healthcare, infrastructure and public sector developments.
Reliable Protection for Movement Joints
- Covers exposed structural movement joints with a clean finish.
- Accommodates building expansion and contraction.
- Protects joint edges from impact and wear.
- Maintains continuous wall and ceiling appearance.
- Suitable for new construction and refurbishment projects.
- Supports long-term joint movement without restricting performance.
- Available for internal architectural applications.
- Simplifies installation on finished surfaces.
Profile Design and Material Construction
- Extruded Aluminium Profiles: Surface mounted expansion joint systems use corrosion-resistant aluminium sections for long-term durability.
- Flexible Centre Insert: The movement joint cover incorporates an elastomeric insert that absorbs structural movement while maintaining joint continuity.
- Surface Mounted Installation: Surface mounted expansion joint covers are fixed directly onto completed wall or ceiling finishes without recessed preparation.
- Architectural Finish Options: Architectural joint covers are available with anodised, mill finish or powder-coated aluminium surfaces.
- Movement Capability: Profiles accommodate horizontal and vertical structural movement while protecting the expansion gap.
