Artisan Profile

Freedom in form.
Precision in the detail.

Artisan is the flexible, bespoke Steelos profile system. Greater freedom in configuration, proportion and specialised architectural applications allows the design to respond to the project. Steelos confirms the appropriate profile and technical details during design and quotation.

01 / Within Artisan

Details shaped by
the application.

The existing Slimline and Performance series sit within Artisan. Their documented jamb and leaf sections are shown below. Location, exposure and the required weather protection guide the detail. These are Artisan drawings; they do not describe Heritage.

02 / The detail

A closer look
at the seal.

Both Artisan series feature a rebated jamb. The Performance Series adds an integrated lip to the door leaf, providing an additional layer of protection against weather exposure.

The additional integrated leaf lip works with the rebated jamb for exposed external applications.

03 / Head options

Two expressions
within Artisan.

Square and sloped heads retain the same overall dimensions within each series. The distinction is visual: a flat face for a clean, sharp expression, or an angled detail for a more subtle finish.
