Storefronts	Storefront is a proven and successful platform. There is more flexibility with storefront than with any other window framing system types. There are enough fabrication, design and performance choices to please the most discerning building owner, architect and installer. Plus the confidence a tried and true framing system instills. Whether the application is basic or ornate, easy or complex, the possibilities are virtually endless with storefront framing.
Curtainwalls	Curtain wall is a term used to describe a building facade which does not carry any load from the building other than its own load, and one which transfers the horizontal loads (wind loads) that are incident upon it. A curtain wall is designed to resist air and water infiltration, wind forces acting on the building and seismic forces. Curtain walls are typically designed with "stick" aluminum members, although steel is a beautiful option. The frame is typically infilled with glass, which provides an architecturally pleasing building, as well as benefits such as daylighting throughout the building. Curtain walls differ from storefront systems in that they are designed to span multiple floors, and take into consideration design requirements such as: thermal expansion and contraction; building sway and movement; water diversion; and thermal efficiency for cost-effective heating, cooling, and lighting in the building.
Punched Windows	Punched window gets its application term where a hole is "punched" in the exterior wall of the building and filled with a window. Similar to storefront, arrangement and composition can vary greatly in its application. Punched window framing can be fabricated and designed to fit any hole with depth of framing designed to fit applications to fit the specified performance criteria.
Strip Windows	Strip window gets its application term by simulating the look of a "strip" wrapped horizontally around the building. Strip window systems are popular in office building construction and can be any height between typical floor slabs. They are usually installed between panels of stone, aluminum, or concrete. Strip windows are typically cost-effective way to maximize daylighting without having the cost of curtain wall systems.
