About Plate Panel




The Plate Panel System offers a large-panel option that mitigates oil-canning and improves material-yield.
Our Plate Panel system is composed of metal panels in plate (typically .120”+) thicknesses with hardware welded to the backside that engages with Z-girt hardware. Adjustable Z-girts can allow for tolerance in the substrate, so the final installation is smooth and continuous. The joints can include backing hardware to close the joints or can be designed with open joints to allow airflow.
Great for any vertical wall application, Zahner’s sales team can support your efforts. We’ll help your team choose the best material, finish, and panel size for your project’s design and budget.
