FAQs

What about lighting?

We have two options for spot lighting; a 200w and 50w light, both on arms. They locate to the top tube using a clamp and these can be fitted anywhere along the tube. Obviously downlighters can be fitted into the system, these are readily available. We recommend the Encapsulite lighting system for ligtboxes an internally illuminated walls. We supply special support brackets and panels for this solution.

Do you supply tops, shelves and bags?

No we don't. The reason is that T3Airframe doesn't have standard lengths or structures. This means that we would have to hold an infinite variety of sizes, shapes, colours and finishes of tops and shelves to supply all requirements. So we are happy to supply sizes and suggestions for you to have them produced by your local contractor/carpenter. This means costs are kept low (you don't pay our profit) and delivery is fast and efficient. As for bags and flight cases, there are a number of suppliers who we would be happy to recommend.

Do you have stock sizes?

We buy our aluminium tube in long lengths and then cut to order. We own bending machines, so we can produce any curve from 523mm to 8000mm outside diameters. Therefore there doesn't seem to us to be a reason why we should limit the system to stock lengths and curves. We don't charge any extra either, so why not make what you want rather than what we want. After all you're the customer.

How far can I build an unsupported wall?

It's not so much the distance, it's more the number of panels. We recommend no more than 3 between front or rear supports. So between 2000mm to 3000mm.

How high can I build a T3Airframe structure?

The tallest wall we've built is 5000mm, you can see photos of this installation; Herman Miller in the Portfolio section of the website. The height is dependent on the footprint of the structure, so technically we can build much higher, but this depends on access and safety. We had safety wires on the Herman Miller walls because they were so narrow. Of course structures over 4000mm need a Structural Engineering report on a case by case basis. We'll be happy to help.
