How do I incorporate an outside tap or other façade elements into a Cladix wall?

To do this, holes must be drilled in the Cladix façade cladding. Aluminium is a relatively soft metal and can easily be drilled with a standard roll-ground or HSS-ground metal drill.

If you need to drill a large hole, for example to extend a water pipe, use a metal hole saw with a diameter slightly larger than that of the pipe. Be careful when drilling in aluminium. The shavings that are released can fly off and end up in your eyes. Therefore, always wear the proper safety equipment, such as safety goggles.
