Double V-Notch

Double V-Notch cladding

A Study In Rhythm

Double V-Notch has two V-shaped grooves in each aluminum plank, giving the façade a dual-shadow rhythm and the look of narrower planks. The wall reads as finely detailed up close, and its character shifts through the day as the sun moves across the building.

Double V-Notch planks clipped over water and air barriers on wood sheathing, seen from below

Substrate Overview

FastPlank® Systems can be installed over sheathed wood-stud or steel-stud walls, metal girts, and furred concrete or masonry using the specified fastener for each substrate.

Rainscreen System

All FastPlank® systems are AAMA 508-certified pressure-equalized rainscreens. Intelligent design channels water away from the building envelope, while a 3/8" air cavity exceeds building code rainscreen requirements.

Clip & Slide™ Attachment

Patented Clip & Slide™ technology secures each plank with hidden clips spaced 16" to 32" apart. The lightweight 16' aluminum planks slide into place, and a non-ferrous carbide blade handles clean cuts on site.

Durability

FastPlank® has achieved a Very Severe Hail (VSH) rating, withstanding two-inch ice balls fired at more than 150 feet per second with no visible damage. Heavy-gauge extruded aluminum provides lasting impact resistance for demanding exterior environments.

Powder Perfect™ Paint

Our powder-coated systems are engineered for long-term exterior performance, with AAMA 2604-tested resistance to fading and chalking caused by UV exposure. The result is lasting color and appearance, designed so your building can look as good in year 30 as it did on day one.

Profile Options

VV 0.1p.3/4″

Low Profile Perforated Shallow Starter

The Low Profile Perforated Shallow Starter is the starting piece at the base of the wall. It overlaps the bottom edge of the first plank with a 3/4" tab, so the base of the elevation ends in a visible finished line instead of an open plank end. Its perforated web drains and vents the base of the wall while keeping pests out.
