Discover how you can add an architectural edge to ModularWalls with Expressed Joints and make your fence the feature of your outdoor space.
What is an Expressed Joint?
An ‘expressed joint’ is a pronounced join line to make a deliberate design feature.
Therefore, our Expressed Joint is an option we offer to create a feature for your wall or fence design. While some customers ask how to minimise the visibility of the panel join lines, we’re seeing increasing interest in creating linear structures and adding an architectural edge by expressing the joint, which yields genuinely stunning results.
Can I use Expressed Joints in any wall style?
Yes, you can. All of our wall styles can accommodate this stunning design feature. Please let your sales consultant or Trade Partner know, and they can include Expressed Joints in your quote.
