DVR – Wood-Inlay Architectural Gratings

Steel structure with timber, composite or bamboo inserts. Designed for balconies, terraces, decks, stair treads and decorative walls, DVR merges the warmth of natural materials with structural grating performance.

ABOUT

Dejo DVR Wood-Inlay Gratings merge the strength of steel grating with the warmth of natural materials. Designed for balconies, terraces, stairs, decks and decorative wall or ceiling elements, DVR combines durability with architectural appeal.

Panels are fully customisable, including mesh size, bar depth, inlay type, plank width, and finishing — offering designers complete freedom in both structural and aesthetic outcomes.

OVERVIEW

DVR panels feature precision steel or stainless-steel grating with special cutouts that accept timber, composite or bamboo planks. This hybrid system enables architects to combine structural performance with natural finishes in a single engineered panel.

Inlays can be supplied by Dejo or sourced to match project material palettes. Panels may be delivered pre-mounted or with loose inlays for on-site assembly.

The system is ideal for balconies, gardens, terraces, stair treads and ventilated façade accents.
