Manual ZIP screen with hand crank for exterior sun protection without electrical connection. Translucent waterproof coating supports solar-control performance before heat reaches the glass. Wind-resistant ZIP guide system. Single fabric panels up to 6,000×5,000mm (30m²). UV-resistant, anti-fungal. Aluminium frame in any RAL colour. Use exterior shading as part of a project-specific overheating strategy.
MODEL SELECTION
ZIP screen selection reads control type, opening size, facade orientation, fabric openness, guide detail and wind conditions together.
Control
Motorised, solar or manual
Opening
Width and height
Guide
Vertical or roof route
Fabric
Light, heat and privacy
Projects needing wired control and smart integration
Facades where wiring is difficult
Smaller openings without motor preference
Areas needing overhead light and heat control
Control type
Motor, solar battery or manual crank is selected with electrical infrastructure, usage frequency and service access.
Fabric and guide
Fabric openness, colour, ZIP guide and wind conditions are part of the same technical decision.
Integration
Pergola, veranda, facade or glass-roof connection is confirmed by dimensions, drainage and automation needs.
TECHNICAL PROFILE
Read the system character first, then confirm material, glass or infill, fixing detail, anchors and performance data together.

The Luxa 100M is the large-format ZIP screen designed for expansive glass facades, floor-to-ceiling windows, and commercial curtain walls. With a maximum single-panel area of 6,000 mm × 5,000 mm (30 m²), it is the largest ZIP screen in the Alcodec range.
Double-reinforced ZIP rail guides handle the increased fabric tension of oversized panels. A quiet 230V motor integrates wind and sun sensors. Compatible with KNX, Modbus and BACnet building management protocols.
Specifically engineered for office buildings, hotels, hospitals, and retail facades where large glass surfaces create significant solar heat gain. External g-value reduction: from 0.6 to below 0.08 with blackout fabric.
PRODUCT DECISION GUIDE
Use this product when dimensions, fixing conditions, intended use and technical expectations are clear enough to move into quotation.
Works for facade, window, pergola side-closure and hospitality glare/privacy control.
Set fabric openness, guide fixing, motor/control choice and wind class during product selection.
Specify it as an envelope comfort layer, not a simple blind.

PROJECT INPUTS
A ZIP screen is selected by opening size, fabric, guide detail, control type and wind exposure. It should be treated as exterior shading, not as a simple interior blind.
When heat and glare should be controlled before solar gain reaches the glass.
Fabric openness is selected by privacy, view, daylight, glare and thermal goal.
No. Size, guide fixing, wind and service access can require a different model or module split.
Avoid exact energy savings or wind resistance without project-specific data.
PRODUCT ANSWERS
Use these notes to check the product against project data before opening calculators, product finder or quote path.
Sun-control products manage glare, heat gain, privacy and facade comfort from the exterior; opening size, fabric, guide rails, motor/control choice and wind exposure should be checked together.

APPLICATIONS
The hand-crank ZIP screen offers the same wind resistance and solar blocking as motorised models at lower cost. No electrical connection needed — ideal for garden walls, gazebos, and structures without power.
Stop the crank at any height for partial shading. The mechanism holds position without locking — fabric stays exactly where you set it.
When electrical modifications aren't permitted or practical, the manual crank system provides professional-grade exterior shading. Mount on any surface without electrical planning.
Popular for heritage buildings where visible electrical conduit would conflict with conservation requirements.
For winter garden glass surfaces.
