Specification – Bat Box Outer Section/Basic element 3FE
The outer section is the actual crevice roost and is open at the rear. Inside there are two separate hanging zones which taper upwards. Below that there is a deeper hanging area. The inside has an especially optimised surface structure. The outer section can be screwed directly onto the façade. The surface of the façade (e.g. render) then forms the rear of the roost. It is advisable to seal the contact area, e.g. with acrylic. In most cases the outer section is set into the façade (e.g. glued or bricked in). The surface of the 3FE can then be rendered or be left unrendered, for example, if it is installed in fair-faced masonry. Due to the open rear, the outer section is particularly suitable for maintaining existing roosts and to make their entrance in a structurally correct way, e.g. in case of insulation measures.The outer section can be combined with the optional insulated rear panel and/or the entry attachment.
