Louvers

Solara is the only company to offer both roll formed and extruded aluminum louvers. This gives you a large difference in price offering and choice for your customers.

Both louvers are available up to 23’ long and will snap in to the louver bracket which is pre-installed in the Solar rafter.

Rafters

Solara Rafters are extruded aluminum and can be made to 26’ then can be splice as long as necessary the longest  to date is over 100’. Each rafter has an electrical raceway built in offer protection and  hide wires. The mechanism is pre-installed with louver brackets and U-Beam at our factory. Solara comes with rafter brackets to attach to a beam and attachment bracket or end cap as ordered.

Beams

Solara has beams which can be configured in single and double to span as needed – they are extruded aluminum and low profile blend with any architecture. You can order end caps and outside or inside brackets to attach to wall or roof.

Louver Brackets

Solara louver brackets are made from a space age technology material and over 30% fiberglass. It is completely self-lubricating and with the other mechanism parts has a 15 year warranty. The roll form or extruded louvers simply snap into these brackets.

Solara is manufactured in Phoenix AZ where we have a State of the Art Roll Forming machine with tolerances to one thousands of an inch. And all rafters, mechanism, and packaging is done in our facility.

The standard Solara comes with a manual operator and a crank but many customers upgrade to the motorized option.
