Fast, Concealed Fixings for Battens, Cladding & Screens

The Sculptform Click-on Connection is a patented concealed-fixing system designed for fast installation, impeccable alignment, and complete design freedom. Used across battens, cladding and screening applications, it allows architects and builders to achieve seamless, high-quality finishes every time.

Patented Click-on Connection

Our range of click-on connections are designed and engineered to meet demanding building requirements. Custom designed to suit each of our products, our connections enable design freedom and flexibility, synonymous with our modular range.


 
What is the Click-on Connection?
 Our Click-on Connection is a modular system consisting of mounting tracks with factory fitted and pre-spaced clips that allow battens, screens or cladding boards to simply “click” into place. This results in perfectly aligned surfaces with no visible fixings, reduced installation time, and consistent spacing across any design.
 
The system delivers a clean, contemporary aesthetic that works across both interior and exterior projects, whether you specify timber or aluminium.

How the Clip System Works

Each component of the Click-on connection has been designed for speed, accuracy, and flexibility.

Mounting Tracks

Mounting tracks come with clips factory fitted and pre-spaced to your exact specification, eliminating layout guesswork. Installers simply fix the track to the substrate, then click battens or cladding boards directly into place.

Concealed Clips

Clips engage securely with the track, holding each profile firmly while allowing for smooth, effortless installation. The concealed mechanism ensures a refined, screw-free finish.

Clip Types and Their Applications

Standard Clip

Ideal for most wall and ceiling batten applications, strength and consistent spacing.

 

Direct-Fix Clip

Used for detail work and tight spaces where designers don't wany any track to be visible.

 

Sliding Clip

As building tolerances vary greatly, and often at the time of ordering, there is no confirmed site measurements, the sliding clip allows for “fudging” the spacing to maintain a symmetrical, consistent appearance at the peripheries of the layout. Example below.

 

Swivel Clip

The swivel clip is designed to give the flexibility of using diagonal lines in creating linear textures. Used in combination with clip spacing it gives an additional degree of freedom in the design.

Seesaw Clip

For sculptural applications where greater degrees of freedom are desired. The Seesaw Clip can be rotated left or right, back and forth to suit any degree of flexibility required for your design.
