In our times, there is a rapid increase in the scale of residential construction. Urbanization trends have facilitated the reorganization and consolidation of existing developers, as well as the emergence of a significant number of new players. Particularly active construction is noted in suburban areas and satellite towns of major cities, including Kyiv.

In the conditions of existing competition aimed at attracting new investors, developers and development companies are increasingly striving to highlight the advantages of each of their projects. Emphasis is placed on the implementation of modern technologies and interesting features. As a result, in addition to focusing on interior solutions, technical equipment, and the convenience of layouts, more attention is being paid to the exterior appearance of new buildings. Unusual facade forms, structural features, and creative coloring are all tools aimed at attracting the attention of a larger audience of future owners.

However, the style of any modern facade can easily be distorted by the addition of randomly placed external objects. This refers to external air conditioning units installed by residents in places “where it suits them,” without any systematic approach. The variety of sizes and quantities of this climate control equipment adds contrast to the picture. This phenomenon negatively affects the aesthetic appearance of the building, and to prevent it, modern developers have found a solution by adding brackets for air conditioners and decorative screens for external units to the project. This is a radical and effective solution – baskets for external air conditioning units.

Despite its airy name and the ease of its perception, these decorative baskets are actually a reliable structure consisting of:

• Metal frame, and
• Decorative element

At first glance, the process of attaching to the external wall appears to be a typical installation of a bracket for an external air conditioner unit. However, the installation of the bracket basket is a two-stage process, where the attachment of wall brackets takes place before the insulation and cladding of the facade, whether it’s a wet or ventilated facade.

Upon completion of finishing works, the pre-assembled air conditioner basket is attached to the brackets protruding from the facade.

The vertical element, or the so-called decorative screen of the air conditioner, primarily serves as a visual curtain for the unit and blends with the facade design. However, in accessible areas (ground floors, shared balconies, etc.), it also serves as a kind of anti-vandal grille.

Air conditioner baskets from the manufacturer

The facade baskets from “New Century Plus” are characterized by their reliability, confirmed by calculations of appropriate loads. The accuracy of installing air conditioner units of various sizes is achieved through the ability to adjust the cross-section profiles due to the presence of special holes. All components are selected with an emphasis on corrosion protection to prevent metal corrosion, especially the decorative element, as it serves as a cover.

When choosing facade baskets for air conditioners from our company, customers have the option to choose the color of the metal frame according to RAL and the color of the screen. Also available is the option to choose a pattern through the perforation of the decorative element, which allows:

• Integration into the external appearance of the facade;
• Adding uniqueness to the overall style;
• Reducing frontal wind loads;

Installation of air conditioner baskets

One of the methods of installing these facade structures is the industrial alpinism method. Providing the company with its own team of experienced, certified, professional industrial climbers is a significant advantage for comprehensive site coverage. The technical equipment of the workers is determined by the use of the best tools and gear. The company possesses all necessary permits.

Assembly – Control – Delivery to the site

When ordering basket installation services from our company, all components are assembled in the workshop, and each assembly operation is monitored. Delivery of pre-assembled structures significantly speeds up the installation process and ensures high quality of the final result.
