The DESIGN'TOUCH1 pediment is a decorative facade molding made of EPS, with a smooth resin and quartz finish, designed to house a NIDHIR1-AO swift nest box. It combines architectural ornamentation and biodiversity preservation, for both new builds and renovations.

Key features

  • Projecting decorative element, smooth resin and quartz finish, ready to paint
  • Mandatory NIDHIR1-AO nest box, to be ordered separately (pre-installed on the facade)
  • Oblong entrance hole 70 × 30 mm, suitable for swifts
  • Installation on masonry, concrete, ETICS, ventilated facade, or solid substrate (full bonding + mechanical fixing)

Technical specifications

  • Materials: high-density expanded polystyrene (EPS 150, 35 kg/m³) + 4 mm mineral compound (acrylic base + quartz)
  • External dimensions: L 510 × D 230 × H 210 mm
  • Internal dimensions (cavity): L 315 × D 140 × H 160 mm — Entrance hole: 70 × 30 mm
  • Pediment weight: approximately 1.5 kg (excluding nest box)
  • Suitability for facade use — Certificate no. 050-021712 (Prague Technical Institute)

Installation

Minimum height of 4 m between the ground (or a building projection) and the flight hole, preferably oriented North or East. First, fix the NIDHIR1-AO nest box, then fully bond the pediment over it; finish with two coats of primer (~200 g/m²) in the finish color and a PU sealant joint around the perimeter. Keep the access route clear (no trees or awnings in front of the facade).

About the species

Swifts like to nest in colonies: install several nest boxes side by side, ideally maintaining a distance of ≥ 40 cm between them.

Instructions for use

The NIDHIR1-AO nest box is mandatory and must be ordered separately.

First, attach the nest box to the facade with the adjustable brackets (supplied), then fully glue the pediment over it. Finish with two coats of primer (~200 g/m²) in the finishing tone and a PU sealant joint around the perimeter.

Dimensions

  • External dimensions: L 510 × D 230 × H 210 mm
  • Internal cavity: L 315 × D 140 × H 160 mm
  • Entrance window: 70 × 30 mm

Placement

Minimum height of 4 m between the ground (or a building projection) and the entrance hole, preferably oriented north or east. Clear access route: no trees or awnings in front of the facade. Recommended distance ≥ 40 cm between nesting boxes.

Maintenance

No specific maintenance. Repaint as needed to match the facade color (acrylic facade paint).

Frequently Asked Questions

How to choose the right nesting box?

Each product is sized for a specific species (diameter of the entrance hole, chamber volume). Refer to the description and the technical sheet downloadable on each product page.

How are birdhouses installed?

AQUAPANEL® recessed nest boxes are integrated into the thickness of the insulation during external thermal insulation, or are fixed directly onto the masonry with the supplied accessories. Surface-mounted nests can be installed on all types of facades.

What are the delivery times?

Our products are made in France, to order: allow approximately 4 weeks from receipt of the order, then delivery by carrier within 48 hours. Free delivery from €200 incl. VAT for individuals; for professionals, transport costs according to the total weight of the order.

Should birdhouses be maintained?

Generally, no: swifts and bats do not require any cleaning. The NIDELLE cornice swallows' nests have removable supports for easy inspection, outside of the nesting period.

How long does it take for nesting boxes to be occupied?

Colonization can take one to several seasons depending on the species and the proximity of existing colonies. Installing several nest boxes side by side encourages settlement.
