When specifying rooftop equipment screens for commercial developments in Southlake, TX, mechanical screening must balance regulatory compliance with architectural design. Southlake’s commercial zoning standards require complete visual concealment of rooftop HVAC units, ground-mounted machinery, and utility infrastructure from public view and adjacent properties.
At Sharchs Corporation, we design and manufacture high-performance aluminum equipment screens and louvered wall systems engineered specifically to solve these visual mitigation challenges. Our USA-made rooftop screening systems allow architects and general contractors to maintain complete code compliance while complementing the overall building envelope.
Why Architects & Contractors Specify Sharchs Equipment Screens
- 100% Sightline Obstruction: Engineered louver and panel configurations meet strict Southlake municipal screening requirements without compromising exterior visual appeal.
- Optimized Equipment Ventilation: Sharchs precision-formed louver profiles maintain critical airflow intake and exhaust requirements for commercial RTUs, preventing thermal buildup and excessive static pressure.
- Heavy-Duty Extruded Aluminum: Manufactured using premium-grade extruded aluminum to withstand North Texas environmental exposure, including high thermal shifts, ice, and severe wind loads.
- Long-Lasting Architectural Finishes: Available in custom powder coating and Kynar 500® PVDF finishes engineered to resist fading, chalking, and corrosion over decades of exposure.
Primary Applications for Sharchs Commercial Screening Systems
- Rooftop HVAC Unit (RTU) Enclosure: Perimeter screen walls customized for single-unit or large multi-unit rooftop equipment layouts.
- Ground-Mounted Utility & Dumpster Enclosures: Heavy-duty louvered gate and wall configurations for generators, chillers, and service zones.
- Acoustic & Sight-Proof Screen Walls: Specialized blade profiles designed to redirect sound while ensuring total privacy.
- Custom Architectural Wall Screens: Decoratoive, functional exterior aluminum panel systems tailored to match existing facade sunshades and louvers.
Custom Engineering & Fabrication Support
Every project requires unique structural considerations. The Sharchs technical team works directly with architects, developers, and general contractors to provide seamless support from concept to installation:
- Custom Blade Profiles & Spacing: Select inverted, sight-proof, horizontal, or vertical louver profiles to match exact airflow and privacy requirements.
- Engineered Mounting Attachments: Direct-to-deck, structural steel, or frame-anchored connections tested for regional wind load criteria.
- Full Exterior Coordination: Easily match finishes and profiles across our broader product lines, including Aluminum Architectural Louvers and Commercial Building Facade Sun Control Systems.
