About the Project

Gladstone 100/10 architectural cable mesh installed as feature cladding at Peckham Library, London.

Part of this unique design involved the installation of feature lighting which transforms the mesh into an ethereal blue shimmering curtain at night. Peckham Library was designed by Alsop and Störmer and won the RIBA Stirling Prize for Architecture.

About the Project

Coburg 12-12-12-12- architectural spiral wound mesh sun-screening at Oxford Science Park.

The screen is designed to allow differing amounts of light to pass through depending on the angle of the source. The mesh therefore filters maximum sunlight when the sun is at its highest, and allows more light flow early in the morning and at sunset. The Coburg pattern was varied for this project as follows: Open Area: 69%, Weight: 7.32 Kg/m2, Thickness: 13mm.

Architect: Ian Ritchie Architects

About the Project

Brocklebank 20/5 architectural pre-crimped wire mesh installed as security screening at the underground Midtown Cycle Vault at Bloomsbury Square, London. Described as "the safest place in Midtown to leave your bike" the mesh panels provide a secure barrier between a private residential car park and a public cycle facility in the exclusive Bloomsbury Square area of London. Vertical strip lighting and diagonal bracing bars provide a contemporary design in keeping with the surroundings.

The Stainless steel AISI316L mesh pattern was modified for this project to aperture 25mm x 5mm. The mesh was fabricated into 50cm x 50cm hot dipped galvanised frames with powder coated bracing bars in Orange RAL 2003.

Architect: Kenny Sykes, Associate Architect at Goldstein Ween Architects

About the Project

St James pre-crimped woven wire mesh staircase cladding on London Bridge.

The metal staircase provides pedestrian access from the bridge to the Thames river bank below, with the mesh panels carefully angled to show superb views of the Thames for those on the staircase, while also providing privacy for the adjacent office buildings.

The current London Bridge dates from 1831, although a number of bridges have been built on the same site, going back to the Romans 2000 years ago.

About the Project

Officially opened in January 2016, Leeds University’s innovative multi-storey car park features Kirkstone perforated metal panels installed as a unique cladding design, with beautiful eye-catching night-time illumination.

Each Kirkstone square panel consists of 2 high points and 2 low points on opposite corners, joined by a central node, generating a 3D relief. Adjacent corners share a node point, as one geometric template panel is rotated repeatedly through 90 degrees to create an undulating surface precisely designed to achieve the free area required for passive natural ventilation. Perforations in the hyperbolic paraboloid panels are therefore both aesthetic and functional.

The Locker team was integral to the success of the project, from start to finish. Our designers worked in partnership with architect Carey Jones (CJCT) to devise the optimum cladding material. All options were considered, including fabric tension mesh, until the final perforated metal panel design was created.

For Wates Group (Shepherd Construction) Locker delivered structural engineering, design, fabrication and installation of the Kirkstone perforated panels, plus a green wall tensioned mesh façade to the lower floors along with all supporting mullions, steelwork and bracketry.

The innovative structure of the car park façade along with the high quality of the end product has resulted in a shortlisting for a RICS award under the ‘Design through Innovation’ category.

About the Project

The Leeds Recycling and Energy Recovery Facility (ERF) 42m high main building is clad in Locker tension fabric mesh. Chineham mesh is used to clad the roof, and Caledonian 752 mesh is used for the sides and lower levels.

Created by internationally renowned architect, Jean-Robert Mazaud of S’PACE Architecture, the facility's design minimises offensive odours by drawing air constantly into the building from outside. The open weave of the tension fabric mesh facilitates this perfectly while blending beautifully with the curved timber frame to also present a visually appealing facade.

Main contractor: Clugston Construction Ltd
