Vertical aluminium battens run floor to ceiling or wall to wall rather than horizontally across a frame, giving a linear pattern that draws the eye upward. Knotwood’s Stand-Up Battens use a three-part assembly, with a Base Plate fixed to the surface, the batten secured to it, and a Batten Bracket at the head, so no U-channel is needed.
Vertical aluminium battens are a strong fit for privacy screens in courtyards, boundaries and side passages, fencing runs that want a striking, linear pattern, and facade and balustrade elements where a vertical screen adds architectural rhythm.
Stand-Up Battens share the same aluminium construction and architectural-grade finishes as the rest of Knotwood’s screen range, fixed with 304 or 316 grade stainless steel fasteners, with hot-dip galvanised suitable outside marine zones and an insulating rubber or neoprene washer required at every fixing point. Engineered fixing spans are documented per wind region and supporting surface, up to 4000mm on the largest profile, referencing Engineering Reports No.23110 Rev B and No.24090 Rev A.
Stand-Up Battens are available across 25mm and 50mm suites, the same broad profile range as Clip Battens, each with its own Base Plate and Batten Bracket sized to suit. Engineered spans vary by profile and wind region, from 1800mm on the smallest 25mm batten up to 4000mm on the largest 50-75mm battens in Wind Region B.
The Base Plate fixes to the surface first, through the slots on its bottom face, then the batten’s inner face positions against the Base Plate’s larger face and secures through the slots there. A matching Batten Bracket presses into place on the open side until it clicks, closing the fixing. Repeat at consistent, pre-marked intervals for the full run.
Each Base Plate is an L-shaped bracket, fixed to the surface through the slots on its bottom face before the batten goes on. It’s the anchor point for the whole system, every batten in the run stands on its own L Bracket rather than a shared rail or channel, which is what lets the finished screen sit flush with no U-channel visible.
The 25mm batten has no internal wall for a T Bracket to fix through, so it takes a Muscle Man instead. The bracket clips into the batten profile and locks in place, then screws down to the floor. One component does the whole job, and because it works from inside the batten, there is still no fixing on the finished face.
Inspiration
Set just steps from the glistening coastline, these homes follow the rhythm of daily life. A bold modern composition of concrete and glass is offset by an undulating Grey Ash screen, forming an instantly recognisable façade that balances structural strength with layered depth and visual intrigue.
Vary the spacing between battens to adjust privacy and ventilation.
Combine different shapes and sizes to craft a unique look.
Mix and match different timber colours to create realistic and dynamic timber looks.
Stand-Up Battens are Knotwood’s vertical aluminium battens system, engineered for floor-to-ceiling and wall-to-wall installations. The system uses a three-part assembly: a Base Plate fixes to the surface, the Batten (F) secures to the Base Plate, and a Batten Bracket (M) clicks over to close and conceal the fixing, producing a seamless screen with no visible hardware from top to bottom.
Vertical aluminium battens are a strong fit for privacy screens in courtyards, boundaries and side passages, fencing runs that want a striking linear vertical pattern, and facade and balustrade elements where a vertical screen adds architectural rhythm.
All three share the same aluminium construction, concealed fixings and architectural-grade finishes. Stand-Up Battens are chosen for their strong vertical orientation. Geofix is the structural system in the range, engineered for load-bearing fencing, gates and facade screening. Geoline features a geometric profile for a design-forward, contemporary look. All three sit within the Knotwood aluminium screens range.
The key difference is the Base Plate. Stand-Up Battens use a dedicated Base Plate fixed to the floor or surface, creating a true floor-to-ceiling span. Clip Battens use a wall or substructure-mounted bracket instead, better suited to wall-face screening.
Yes. Vertical aluminium battens provide privacy by blocking sightlines through the screen. The degree of privacy depends on batten spacing and the angle of the viewing position.
At close range, the spacing between the vertical aluminium battens is prominent. From further away, the individual battens recede and the run reads as a strong, directional rhythm across the facade or boundary.
Vertical aluminium battens are compatible with a wide range of Knotwood batten profiles, spaced at equal intervals to suit privacy, ventilation and visual requirements. Base Plates are available in two sizes, one for 25mm battens and one for 50mm battens.
Maximum span depends on the batten profile and wind region. Engineered spans range from 1800mm on the smallest 25mm profile up to 4000mm on the largest 50mm and 75mm profiles, identical across steel, timber and concrete supporting surfaces.
Yes. The Base Plate system is designed for fixing into concrete substrates, using an M8 Ramset Trubolt Stud Anchor into N20 concrete or better. The system references AS 5216 and AS 4100 for fixing design. Stainless steel fasteners, grade 304 or 316, must be used throughout. Contact Knotwood to confirm whether a specific configuration meets the structural and safety requirements for your project.
The system is referenced on Knotwood’s Balustrades application page, with engineered fixing spans and fastening detail documented for a range of supporting surfaces and wind regions. Contact Knotwood to confirm whether a specific configuration meets the structural and safety requirements for your project.
Stand-Up Battens are used to divide spaces, define perimeters and screen plant and service areas in commercial and civic environments. The system is engineered for wind and dead loads with documented fixing spans, but it is a screening system rather than a rated security barrier. If a project has a specific security requirement, discuss it with your installer and send us the detail so our technical team can confirm what the system can contribute.
Knotwood aluminium is not deemed combustible when tested to AS 1530.1, and achieves a Spread of Flame Index of 0 to AS/NZS 1530.3. The profiles also hold a Group Number 1 classification under AS 5637.1, the highest of the four classifications for wall and ceiling linings. Bushfire construction is assessed against AS 3959 using the Bushfire Attack Level for the site, and compliance is determined by the assembly rather than the material alone. Screen systems have not been assessed as a standalone bushfire element, so send us your BAL rating and the application and our technical team will confirm what we can supply.
Knotwood Stand-Up Battens carry a powder coat warranty to AS 3715, and the term depends on the finish you specify. Woodgrain finishes use Interpon D STF and carry up to 15 years. Standard colours carry 10 years on Interpon D1000, or 25 years on Interpon D2525, the ultra-durable coating used on prestigious commercial and high-rise projects. All warranties must be registered to take effect. Full terms and the registration form are on our warranty page.
Knotwood does not publish fixed pricing, because screen systems are quoted on specification. The main variables are the finish, the batten profile, the run length and the base plate and bracket quantity the layout requires. Stand-Up Battens are quoted with the base plates and brackets as part of the system rather than the battens alone. Send us your drawings and we will quote it.
Stand-Up Battens are available in solid powder coated colours and in timber-look aluminium finishes, with a wood grain surface over a powder coated base. That is the same architectural-grade finish range used across the Knotwood aluminium screens range and the wider product line, including our aluminium battens, so a screen can be matched to cladding or battens on the same project. The full range is on our finishes page.
