Order your custom bent sheet metal
in just a few clicks
There was a time when ordering a custom sheet metal part meant back-and-forth with a workshop, sketches sent by fax and a week's wait for a quote. Today, the SuissePliage configurator changes everything: in just a few minutes, you choose from around twenty predefined profiles, adapt the dimensions to your project, visualise the result in 3D and place your order — without picking up the phone.
Why the configurator changes everything
Custom sheet metal work has long been seen as a domain reserved for professionals. Complex measurements, angles to specify, materials to choose — all steps that discouraged private individuals or small tradespeople from ordering directly online.
The SuissePliage configurator was designed to remove these barriers. Whether you are an architect, tinsmith, façade contractor or experienced DIYer: if you know the dimensions of your wall or parapet, you have everything you need to configure your part yourself. The tool does the rest.
The configurator runs directly in your browser — no installation or account required. Simply have a tape measure handy and the dimensions of your part: developed width, return lengths and desired angles.
The SuissePliage configurator: choose a profile, enter your dimensions or draw directly on the canvas — the price updates in real time.
Around twenty profiles ready to customise
The configurator offers a library of predefined profiles organised by family. Simply choose the profile that most closely matches your need, then adjust each dimension to your exact measurements. Here is the full range of available profiles:
Basic profiles
Flat sheet, outer angle, inner angle. The fundamental shapes for thresholds, corner returns and simple protections.
Bending profiles
Z-fold, outer C-fold, inner C-fold, step. For offset cladding, rainscreen and façade overlaps.
Flashings
Simple flashing and drip flashing. Essential pieces for waterproofing at the base of façades and managing run-off water.
Window sills
Standard sill, profile 1 and inset sill bending. Profiles designed for window ledges with integrated returns and drip edge.
Sections
Inner and outer U-bending, outer and inner omega, profile 2. For rails, slides, supports and technical framing.
Special profiles
Coping and other capping pieces. To protect the top of walls, parapets and low walls with a profile suited to each wall width.
And if no predefined profile exactly matches your need? There is also a Custom Profile mode that lets you draw your part freely from scratch, segment by segment, with completely free angles and lengths.
Adjusting dimensions: type or click-and-drag
Once your profile is selected, it appears on the canvas with its default dimensions. The interface is designed so that every change is intuitive — two methods coexist and complement each other:
Click a segment to edit it
Click directly on a segment of the part on the canvas: the corresponding input field immediately highlights in the right-hand panel. You know exactly which dimension you are changing. Enter the desired value — the part redraws instantly.
Click a field to locate the angle
Conversely, if you click on an angle field in the panel, the corresponding angle highlights on the canvas. No more confusion between the different bends of a complex part.
Drag directly on the canvas
Prefer to work visually? Grab a point or segment on the canvas and drag to adjust the dimension. Dimensions and price update in real time with every movement.
Choose material, thickness and RAL finish
Select the material (aluminium, galvanised steel…), thickness and desired finish. The 3D render updates with the chosen RAL colour from over 200 available shades.
What you get before you even order
This is where the SuissePliage configurator truly stands out. Before confirming anything, you already have everything you need to decide with confidence:
Instant price in CHF
The pre-tax price is displayed and recalculated with every change. No surprises, no waiting: you know exactly what your part costs before clicking order.
PDF technical datasheet
Export your part's technical datasheet in one click: full dimensions, material, finish, number of bends. A document ready to send to your client or file in your project folder.
Dimensioned 2D drawing
The technical 2D drawing with all dimensions is generated automatically. Check at a glance that every measurement matches what you recorded on site.
Realistic 3D render
The 3D view displays your part with the visual appearance of the chosen finish — RAL colour included. Ideal for validating the aesthetic integration with the façade or existing joinery.
All configured parts are manufactured in our Swiss workshop, in 1050 or 3003 aluminium alloy, powder-coated to Qualicoat standard — colour durability guaranteed for 10 years. Lead time: 5 to 10 working days. Delivery throughout Switzerland and Europe.
