Areawall Comparison
From a product stand point, Areawalls may
seem quite obvious due to the straight forward nature of
a product that is designed to "hold back the dirt"
as some may say. There are differences however, and the
following will help differentiate our Lux-Right™ walls
from other sources.
The Facts
- AREAWALL PROFILE:
"SPC" maintains a larger dimensional opening
for light, ventilation, and increasing egress concerns.
Other sources have shorter faces that taper noticeably
to the foundation. Our measurements are net clear inside
measurements, not mounting hole center to center or outside
overall.
- NON-SECTIONAL CONSTRUCTION:
Assembled walls can separate due to frost heaving. All
SPC Lux-Right™ Areawalls up to 60"are made of one
piece sheet steel. While Areawall integrity is dependent
on proper installation, Lux-Right™ Areawalls cannot separate,
avoiding an expensive call back. TERRACE STEP™ and
all Areawalls 72” and taller feature secure factory
spot welded construction. “No assembly required”.
- FULL ROLLED DOUBLE
BEADS: Top and bottom on 48" and higher Areawalls,
top only 36" high and below. Beyond adding strength,
roll formed beads make handling and installation easier
and safer for anyone that works with the product. No other
source has this feature.
- HUG-TIGHT FLANGE™:
All SPC Lux-Right™ Areawalls have either a die formed flat
flange or our improved Hug-Tight ™ flattened flange
for increased strength and installation integrity. This
is an exclusive in the Areawall industry. This means easier
and cleaner installation minimizing the time required
to get the job done.
- PRIME GALVANIZED
STEEL: Lux-Right™ Areawalls are made from commercial
grade pre-galvanized sheet steel with a G-90 zinc coating.
We can certify as to amount of zinc and gauge of our product
from the mill. This is important because the amount of
zinc (galvanize) determines the life expectancy of the
product. Paint is not zinc! Always ask about decimal and
galvanizing specifications.
