GRC/GFRC manufacturer, Bangalore, Karnataka

GRC arches and arch surrounds

Arches are hard to build accurately on site, because every block and moulding has to follow the curve. A GRC arch is cast against a mould set out to the exact geometry, so the curve, the mouldings and the keystone arrive ready to fix.

We make pointed Mughal arches, cusped arches, semicircular Roman arches and flat arches, as plain surrounds or with jali infill.

GRC arches: questions

More about GRC

Can an arch be filled with jali?

Yes. We cast jali panels shaped to the arch and fix them inside the surround, like the windows in the elevation on our home page.

Can you make arches for an existing opening?

Yes. We measure the opening on site and make the surround to fit.
