How does the light gray ASKO panel differ from the Graphite variant?
Light gray and Graphite are separate solid color products in the ASKO system, each with its own SKU and images. The light gray variant is the lighter color name; no specific RAL code is assigned, so it should not be equated to a standard shade by assumption. To match with window frames, plaster, or metal cladding, compare physical samples under natural light.
What is the light gray ASKO eaves cladding made of and how large is it?
The panel is made of PVC and shaped as a three-board siding profile for the underside of the eaves. The size in Shopify is 3 m length and 305 mm width. ASKO specifies UV and weather resistance for this system. The material is not metal and should not be used as a supporting board or water-draining roofing sheet.
What are the codes of the two light gray ASKO variants?
The light gray solid panel has SKU LT-4355, and the perforated one is LT-4356. Their main dimensions and color are the same, but the presence of holes determines a different function in the ventilation scheme. When assembling the site, check the label and the panel face, because the general name “Light gray” does not indicate whether the delivered element is solid or ventilated.
How many light gray panels are minimally needed for a nominal 8 m²?
One panel has a geometric area of 0.915 m², so 8 ÷ 0.915 = 8.74 and the mathematical minimum is 9 pieces. This calculation does not include cutting waste, effective locking width, or separate distribution of perforated panels. If the fields are narrow or have many bends, calculation by rows and lengths is more accurate than dividing only by total area.
Does UV resistance mean that the light gray ASKO color will never change?
No, UV resistance is a confirmed characteristic of the PVC system, but it is not a promise of absolutely unchanged shade under all exposure, cleaning, and time conditions. Panels must be installed and maintained according to instructions, without aggressive treatment of the surface. Warranty claims apply under the manufacturer’s current conditions and identification of the specific batch, not a general marketing statement.
Which light gray accessories complete the ASKO panels?
In LATIVA’s product range, there is a light gray J-profile for peripheral edges and a light gray H-profile for connecting two fields. Both have a nominal length of 3 m. When drawing the eaves, mark end and connecting lines separately to avoid ordering the same profile for different functions. Color matching is confirmed by real elements.
