Bespoke Cavity Closers for Unique Projects

A Guide To The Types Of Curved And Arched Windows

Cavity closers are integral components in construction, effectively sealing the gaps in cavity walls around windows and doors to protect the building from moisture and improve energy efficiency. While most cavity closers on the market are designed for square or rectangular reveals, not all projects are that straightforward.

There are so many reveal shapes and sizes because every project is different. For circular, arched, oval or uniquely shaped window and door openings, conventional closers simply don’t work. You need custom-made cavity closers to match its dimensions and ensure an airtight and watertight seal.

Why Cavity Closers Matter

Custom cavity closers are specifically designed to provide a precise fit for any opening, no matter how complex the design. They ensure a tight seal, maintaining the same high level of thermal performance as astandard cavity closer even for irregular or bespoke openings.
