Engineering overview

VisioMod Modulo is the structural backbone of the entire VisioMod fence range — the post system, accessory family and bespoke fabrication service that lets specifiers move from a generic catalogue specification to a project-specific solution without leaving the engineered envelope. The post family is built from 6063-T5 aluminium in two cross-sections, 60×60 mm and 90×90 mm, across five functional profiles: line post for mid-run continuity, end post for terminal closures, corner post for 90° direction changes, wall post for masonry abutments, and T-junction post where three runs intersect at a single structural node. Four standard heights — 1100, 1400, 1800 and 2200 mm — cover residential boundary, screen, perimeter and high-privacy duties under the EN 1991-1-4 wind action framework with the appropriate National Annex. Foundation is specified two ways: M12 chemical or expansion anchor through a 150×150×8 mm base plate onto an existing reinforced slab, or post concrete-set 500–700 mm below grade per DIN EN 1997 frost-zone depth. Four cap variants — flat, pyramid, LED-integrated and rain-channelled — close the head detail. The Modulo Light LED program adds cap-mounted, between-slat linear and full backlight panel options on a single IP68 24 V DC platform with 60–200 W drivers, RF + Zigbee + Matter control and a 5-year warranty per EN 60598-1. Where the catalogue does not answer, the bespoke service returns a project review package within 5 working days from sketch, prices the panel as one fabricated unit up to 2000×2500 mm, and delivers product data, option summary, 3D PDF and project review-ready project notes. Modulo is the load-path on which Lineo, Verto, Bosco, Cristallo, Porta and Lumina sit — the discipline behind the catalogue.
Use cases

Where it fits

Mixed-series boundary on a single property

A residential project specifies Lineo at the street, Cristallo at the terrace edge and Bosco at the planted zone — three different infill systems on one continuous run. The boundary needs a single post family that accepts every infill cleanly, holds a coordinated finish across orientations and lets the architect dissolve the transitions visually rather than emphasise them with brackets and trim plates.

Modulo line and corner posts in 90×90 mm carry all three infills on the same channel system; finish batch is held across the run so anodised or RAL reading remains continuous from gate to terrace.

Coastal estate with high wind tier

A second-line coastal estate sits in EN 1991-1-4 Terrain Category 0 with chronic onshore gusts and salt-laden air. The 1800 mm boundary must hold 1.4 kN/m² wind tier across long runs, accept Lineo 30 mm slats for wind filtration and resist white-bloom corrosion through 10+ seasons. Foundations land in clay with a 700 mm frost depth.

90×90 mm Modulo posts at 1800 mm height, concrete-set 700 mm below grade, with Qualimarine pre-treatment under Qualicoat Class 2 powder coat; rain-channelled caps shed weather water away from the post-anchor interface.

Heritage project with bespoke laser-cut motif

A restoration brief calls for a 1400 mm street boundary that references the heritage ironwork of an adjoining listed building without copying it. The architect wants a CNC laser-cut aluminium panel with a project-specific motif framed by the same posts that carry the rest of the perimeter, delivered as a single fabricated unit and engineered to current EN wind-action standards.

Bespoke service returns project review package in 5 working days; panel fabricated up to 2000×2500 mm in one piece on Modulo 60×60 mm posts, finish-matched to adjacent catalogue runs.

Estate driveway with LED-marked perimeter

A 240 m estate frontage needs a post-cap LED rhythm that marks the boundary at dusk without lighting the surrounding pasture. The system must accept Modulo Light cap LEDs at every line post, run on a single 24 V DC zone, integrate with the existing Matter-based home automation and survive freeze-thaw cycles in continental winter.

LED-integrated caps at every Modulo post on a single IP68 24 V DC zone with 60–200 W driver; Matter bridge ties into the home automation, RF remote covers gate-side override.

Courtyard with T-junction division

An infill housing project subdivides a shared courtyard into three private patios using a single continuous fence run that branches at two T-junctions. Each branch carries a different infill series — Lineo on the perimeter, Bosco on the patio divisions — and the structural node at the T-junction must read as one post, not three brackets.

Modulo T-junction post receives panels on three adjacent faces at one structural node; finish-matched cap closes the head detail flush, with no visible bracket plates.

vs alternatives

How it compares

Galvanised steel posts with welded-on brackets

Pros

  • +High strength-to-cost ratio
  • +Familiar fabrication tradition
  • +Wide compatibility with mesh and timber infills

Cons

  • Galvanising fails first at weld and bracket interfaces
  • Repaint cycle every 7–10 years on coastal sites
  • Visible weld-spot witness marks read as industrial

Why VisioMod

Modulo replaces welded steel with extruded 6063-T5 aluminium and a routed channel system, removing the weld-corrosion failure mode and the recurring repaint cycle. Five functional profiles cover every site geometry without on-site fabrication, and the Qualicoat Class 2 finish delivers architectural-grade reading at residential, hospitality and estate-scale boundaries.

Concrete-encased timber posts

Pros

  • +Low material cost
  • +Familiar carpentry tradition
  • +Tactile timber reading

Cons

  • Rot at the post-ground interface within 8–12 years
  • Twist and check across seasonal cycles
  • Cannot host LED-integrated caps or smart-home control

Why VisioMod

Timber posts surrender at the ground line where moisture and biological attack concentrate. Modulo's M12-anchored or concrete-set aluminium post moves the failure horizon out beyond the project-confirmed structural terms, and the Modulo Light program adds IP68 LED capability that timber cannot host without invasive routing.

Generic aluminium fence post (no system coordination)

Pros

  • +Lower upfront cost
  • +Wider availability
  • +Faster procurement

Cons

  • Single profile cannot resolve corners, T-junctions and wall abuts
  • Finish batches not coordinated with infill
  • No bespoke fabrication route for project-specific panels

Why VisioMod

Off-shelf aluminium posts cover line duty only and force the contractor to improvise corners and abutments with surface-mounted brackets. Modulo's five functional profiles, four cap options and bespoke service close every detail at the same finish batch and the same engineering envelope, so the perimeter reads as one designed system rather than an assembly of components.

Architectural integration

Reading on the facade

Modulo is the layer the architect rarely draws but always specifies — the structural and detail vocabulary that lets the visible fence read as a single coherent system rather than a kit of parts. The two post sections (60×60 and 90×90 mm) are sized to disappear behind the infill rather than compete with it: against Lineo's 20 mm slat depth and Cristallo's frameless glass plane, the 60 mm post reads as a hairline at three metres and is invisible in oblique elevation, while the 90 mm post is reserved for high-wind-tier and 2200 mm specifications where the additional moment capacity earns the extra face width. Cap detailing follows the same logic: flat caps for stripped contemporary palettes, pyramid caps where heritage register is wanted, rain-channelled caps on exposed coastal sites where standing water at the post head accelerates anchor corrosion, and LED-integrated caps where the boundary should mark itself at dusk. Brackets at 90°, 135° and 0–180° adjustable cover every site-survey error and oblique boundary line without custom fabrication. Finish batches are coordinated across posts, panels, caps and accessories so anodised bronze or RAL 7016 anthracite read continuously from the foundation cap to the LED driver housing — including the Porta gate program and the Lumina LED program, which sit on the same Modulo backbone. The bespoke service is the architect's escape valve when the catalogue cannot resolve a specific motif, span or hybrid composition, with engineered output that drops cleanly into the project notes model rather than arriving as a parallel substitution.

Installation

Foundation & site notes

Modulo accepts two foundation strategies. On existing reinforced slabs of C25/30 or better at 150 mm minimum depth, posts are mechanically fixed via M12 chemical or expansion anchor through a 150×150×8 mm galvanised base plate, with edge distances and pull-out values verified to ETAG 001. For new boundaries on natural ground, posts are concrete-set in a 250×250 mm footing — 500 mm deep in DIN EN 1997 frost zones 1–2, 700 mm deep in zones 3–4 — with C20/25 concrete and 75 mm cover to the post foot. Base plates carry ±15 mm three-axis level adjustment to absorb foundation tolerance. Channels along the post faces accept the panel infill clipped from one end and locked with concealed grub screws every fifth panel module. T-junction and corner posts require the line-of-fence to be set first, with branches landed against the established run to preserve plumb. Where Modulo Light is specified, low-voltage 24 V DC conduit is pulled through the post core before concrete pour; driver housings sit at the gate-side end post or in a service pit within 15 m of the longest LED run for voltage-drop reasons. Cap fitment is the final step, after the panel run and any LED commissioning is complete.

Maintenance

Care schedule

  • Twice yearly (spring / autumn)rinse all posts, caps and accessory hardware with garden hose and soft brush to remove dust, pollen and salt deposits; pay attention to rain-channelled cap channels and post-base drainage paths
  • Annualvisual inspection of all post anchors, M12 bolt torque check on slab-mounted 60 mm posts to 60 Nm, base-of-post drainage clearance, cap fitment integrity
  • Annual (coastal sites only)detailed Qualimarine surface check across all post faces; wash with fresh water and pH-neutral aluminium cleaner if white salt bloom is observed
  • Every 2 yearsModulo Light LED commissioning check — verify driver output within ±5 % of nameplate, test RF/Zigbee/Matter control surfaces, confirm IP68 cable-gland seals on any below-grade junctions
  • Every 5 yearstouch up minor coating chips on posts, caps and brackets with manufacturer-supplied RAL-matched repair paint to maintain Qualicoat warranty; replace any A2 stainless fixings showing surface oxidation
  • Every 10 yearsfull structural inspection across the post run — verify plumb, check baseplate concrete for frost spalling, retorque all M12 anchors, replace LED drivers and emitters approaching end-of-warranty cycle
Project examples

Specified in real projects

Mixed-series coastal villa, Costa Brava

Seafront villa with three boundary functions on one continuous run — street privacy, terrace view-edge, planted-zone screening.

Specification: Modulo 90×90 mm posts at 1800 mm height, coastal 1.4 kN/m² tier, Qualicoat Class 2 + Qualimarine in RAL 7016 anthracite. Lineo 50 mm at the street, Cristallo clear ESG at the terrace, Bosco Walnut at the planted zone, all on the same post system. Rain-channelled caps throughout.

Outcome: Continuous post finish across three different infill systems delivered the seamless reading the architect specified; rain-channelled caps shed coastal wind-driven rain away from the anchor interface.

Bespoke heritage panel, Lyon courtyard restoration

Listed-building courtyard requiring a 1400 mm street boundary with a CNC laser-cut motif referencing the original ironwork.

Specification: Bespoke Modulo service returned project review package in 4 working days; single 1800×1400 mm fabricated aluminium panel with project-specific perforation pattern, mounted on Modulo 60×60 mm posts in bronze anodised finish. Engineered to EN 1991-1-4 inland tier 1.0 kN/m².

Outcome: Heritage authority approved the contemporary reinterpretation; one-piece fabrication preserved the motif's continuity across the panel without weld lines.

Estate frontage with LED-marked perimeter, Burgundy

240 m estate boundary requiring discreet dusk illumination without light spill onto adjacent pasture or vineyard.

Specification: Modulo line and corner posts at 1400 mm with LED-integrated caps on every line post, single IP68 24 V DC zone driven by a 200 W driver in the gate-side service pit. Matter bridge to the existing home automation, RF remote at the gate.

Outcome: Cap-LED rhythm marks the boundary as a quiet dotted line at dusk without illuminating the field beyond; Matter integration brings the perimeter into the same control surface as house lighting and irrigation.
