Flat Guaged Arches

Sleek and understated, flat gauged arches are a versatile choice for both modern and heritage-inspired builds. Each unit is carefully crafted to replicate the crisp lines and refined joints of hand-laid brickwork, delivering a clean finish that installs quickly and accurately on site. Whether used above windows or doorways, these arches provide a refined aesthetic with minimal complexity.
