Cappings & Trims | Made-to-Measure Aluminium Sills
Parapet wall cappings, secret-fix and welded corner cappings, and aluminium trims for cladding, windows, doors and EWI systems.
Overview
Precision Engineered Aluminium Cills
Architectural wall cappings and boundary trims provide the ultimate weatherproofing for parapet walls and cladding boundaries. Fabricated with secret-fix brackets and slide-on joints, they allow for natural thermal expansion while maintaining a seamless, watertight barrier. We fabricate straight runs, internal/external corner units, stop-ends, and T-junctions to order.
This product is configured and priced dynamically. To order this exact detail to your millimetre measurements, please download the Cills app or visit Cills.ie.

// Product FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
How do secret-fix brackets work for wall cappings?
The brackets are fixed directly to the parapet. The capping profile then snaps over the brackets, eliminating visible screws and allowing thermal expansion.
Do I need expansion joints for long runs of parapet capping?
Yes, we recommend a 3-4mm expansion gap every 3 meters, waterproofed using our internal splice plates and EPDM seals.
Are corner cappings welded or jointed?
All internal and external corners are fully TIG-welded and dressed flat in our workshop to guarantee watertightness.
