Custom stainless steel screen

Black Radial Linear Art Deco Stainless Steel Screen

Radial fans, stepped bars and ornamental lattice give Art Deco stainless steel screens distinct compositions for bars, hotels and reception spaces.
Product Features

Black Art Deco metal screens combine radial fan motifs and stepped linear bars for bar, hotel and reception partitions with an open geometric profile. Review fan radius, bar spacing and frame connections against the approved interior elevation. Engineering review should coordinate bar straightness, spacing, rail stiffness, weld sequence and the required floor or head connection so the assembled divider remains aligned. Xinmao Metal can coordinate fabrication details, samples, finish matching and export-ready packing for the project.

Application Scenarios

Space Zoning & Partitioning :
Flexibly divide open-plan living rooms, studio apartments, or shared offices into distinct functional zones (e.g., separating a dining area from the lounge, or a workspace from the bedroom) without structural changes.

Privacy Creation :
Instantly create private nooks for changing areas, home offices, reading corners, or dressing rooms in residential or hospitality settings.

Decorative Focal Point & Backdrop :
Act as stylish art pieces, headboards behind beds, or aesthetic backdrops for video calls, photography, and live streaming.

Light & Flow Control :
Gently diffuse direct sunlight, block unwanted light, or redirect air currents to create a more comfortable micro-climate.

Concealment :
Elegantly hide clutter, storage units, utility areas, or architectural imperfections from view.

Installation Precautions
  • Confirm the radial, stepped or ornamental composition and its up direction before using the opening datums to set the frame.
  • Protect fan centres and projecting stepped members during lifting; use only the agreed support and temporary restraint locations.
  • Check the member layout and any pattern break from the principal approach before locking the frame connections.
  • Coordinate the floor, head and adjacent lighting or signage interfaces, keeping the agreed adjustment and maintenance access available until alignment is accepted. Further guidance: Screen system fixing and installation guidance

Typical height: 800–3000 mm. Typical single-panel width: 300–1200 mm. Overall depth: 15–80 mm.

Final dimensions follow the elevation, transport route, site access and installation condition.

Architectural screens designed around the space

A decorative screen is more than a pattern applied to metal. It has to manage sight lines, light, circulation and scale while fitting the surrounding architecture. Xinmao develops every stainless steel screen as an integral component of the architectural intent—seamlessly balancing visual design with fabrication and site installation requirements.

Black Radial Linear Art Deco Stainless Steel Screen

Radial Members Turn The Panel Into A Focal Composition

The fan-like arrangement changes the direction of the members across the panel, gathering lines around offset centres. It creates a more animated surface than a uniform grille. Select this composition for a location where the interior needs a deliberate focal element, with the principal approach considered early.

Stepped Bars Build A Different Central Emphasis

The stepped option uses horizontal bars of changing lengths within a vertical frame, forming an angular central feature. Its effect depends on the relationship between the steps and the long upright lines. Set out those proportions on the elevation before deciding the final member spacing.

Ornamental Lattice Is A Separate Design Direction

A related multi-directional lattice provides another decorative option alongside the radial and stepped arrangements. It should have its own approved pattern and junction details. Selecting a dark finish for the range does not make the different compositions interchangeable at their connections or module breaks.

Review The Screen From Direct And Oblique Views

A bar or reception divider is often seen from both a direct approach and an oblique angle. Review the selected geometry from those positions to judge how the lines overlap and how much of the room remains visible. Keep surrounding signage, lighting and circulation within that review.

Member And Rail Development Preserves The Composition

Resolve the stainless steel members, rail stiffness and connection positions for the chosen design, with the fabrication sequence considered before finishing. The decorative arrangement can contain long slender sections or many close junctions; each needs a support approach appropriate to the approved layout rather than one universal fixing assumption.

Finish Sampling Connects The Feature With Adjacent Materials

Approve the actual dark or warm-toned finish alongside the neighbouring wall, stone or joinery sample. Confirm the visible edge and junction treatment as well as the broad colour. Coordinate floor and head interfaces so the final frame sits comfortably within the reception or hospitality opening.

Details that hold the screen together

A screen is most convincing when pattern, panel construction, finish and interfaces are resolved as one composition.

Changing Radial Directions Give The Surface Movement

Fan-like linework creates a focal geometry that differs from evenly spaced straight bars.

Stepped Lengths Introduce An Angular Central Feature

The changing horizontal member lengths provide a second Art Deco composition within the upright surround.

A Lattice Option Offers A More Repeated Ornament

The multi-directional infill provides a pattern-led alternative to the larger radial or stepped gestures.

Approach-Angle Review Helps Integrate The Feature

Checking the selected design from direct and oblique views keeps it related to the way guests actually move through the space.

Architectural Challenges & Solutions

Challenge

Privacy is needed, but the room must remain open

Xinmao response

Pattern density is calibrated to balance line-of-sight privacy with ambient light and spatial flow.

Challenge

The selected motif does not fit the final elevation

Xinmao response

Motifs are scaled and proportioned across the full elevation, ensuring seamless pattern continuation without awkward crops.

Challenge

Large panels are difficult to transport and install

Xinmao response

Elevations are modularized into manageable sections, aligning panel joints seamlessly with the architectural grid.

Challenge

Metal finishes look inconsistent across the interior

Xinmao response

Finish tones and grain directions are cross-matched with adjacent metalwork, timber, or stone before production.

Challenge

Installation details are left unresolved until site work begins

Xinmao response

Fixing methods and structural integration are fully resolved during detailing, providing contractors with clear shop drawings before fabrication.

Frequently asked questions

Practical answers for architects, contractors and project teams reviewing a custom screen package.

Custom architectural stainless steel screen detail
01Is your metal screen a traditional mashrabiya?

Our products are custom metal screens that can use mashrabiya-inspired geometric patterns. Traditional mashrabiya is a specific architectural element with cultural and environmental functions. We describe modern metal interpretations by their material, pattern and project use rather than treating them as identical to historic woodwork.

02Can a mashrabiya-inspired screen improve shade and privacy?

It can provide visual screening and reduce direct sun in the right arrangement. The effect depends on orientation, pattern depth, open area, viewing angles and the building behind it. Any required daylight, solar or privacy performance should be tested or calculated for the project before it is specified.

03Can the pattern look different by day and at night?

Yes. Sun direction and interior or exterior lighting change the visible pattern, shadows and sightlines. If night-time privacy matters, review the screen with the intended lighting on both sides; daytime appearance alone is not enough to approve it.

04Can a perforated decorative screen act as a waterproof facade?

No. An open metal screen is a decorative or shading layer; the wall or facade behind it must provide the required weather protection. The project team should coordinate drainage, exposed materials, brackets and maintenance access with the building envelope design.

05What changes when a screen is used outdoors?

Outdoor use requires a separate review of exposure, material and finish selection, support, fixings, drainage, cleaning access and any project-specific wind or structural requirements. A pattern approved for an interior partition should not automatically be reused outside.

06Can a screen be supplied in one large piece?

Panel size is set by the design, sheet availability, fabrication method, stiffness, finish, packaging, shipping and site access. For larger elevations, coordinated modules often give a more practical installation route while preserving the pattern across joints.

07Can you provide drawings and samples before production?

Xinmao's published process includes project drawings, finish review and samples or mock-ups. Agree the required drawing set, sample size, approval sequence and installation interfaces in the project scope before fabrication begins.

08Where are architectural metal screens commonly used?

Typical uses include lobby features, partitions, privacy screens, restaurant and retail zoning, lift surrounds and decorative enclosures. The final screen design should respond to the circulation, sight lines and maintenance access of the space.

09Can the pattern be customised for a specific project?

Yes. A client motif, geometric reference or privacy requirement can be used as the starting point. Pattern scale and open area are then reviewed against panel size, borders, viewing distance and fabrication constraints.

10What information do you need for an initial quotation?

Please provide overall dimensions, quantity, project location, intended application, preferred finish, pattern reference and any available drawings. Provisional information should be marked so it can be reviewed separately.

11How is the material selected for a screen project?

Material selection depends on the project specification, location, required appearance, panel format and fabrication method. Xinmao primarily develops stainless steel screen packages, while final material and thickness follow approved project requirements.

12Can the screen finish match other metalwork in the project?

Finish references, approved samples and adjacent metalwork can be reviewed together. Where appearance is critical, colour, texture and grain direction should be confirmed with physical samples before production.

13Can the screen be used for both interior and exterior applications?

Both applications can be considered, but they should not use the same specification by default. Material, finish, backing structure, drainage, fixings and local exposure conditions must be reviewed for the actual project location.

14What installation information can be provided?

The installation approach depends on the project scope and surrounding construction. Wall, floor and ceiling conditions should be shared so frames, brackets, access and fixing interfaces can be discussed during detailing.

15What maintenance is normally required?

Maintenance depends on the selected material, finish, location and level of contact. Accessible joints and suitable panel divisions make cleaning easier. Final cleaning products and methods should follow the approved finish sample and project guidance.
