Unitized Curtain Wall Systems

Unitized Curtain Walls can do everything Wall Systems can but, with the added benefits offered by factory unitization. In addition to translucent wall panels, designers can integrate fixed and operable windows, opaque panels and fixed louvers. From single-story window walls to multi-story curtain walls, Kalwall Unitized Curtain Walls provide modular daylighting solutions that balance aesthetics, performance, and cost.

Factory Unitization

Large panel units, upto 5' x 35{{aps}}, as assembled and glazed at the factory. They can incorporate both translucent panels, fixed and operable vision glazing, as well as opaque panels and fixed louvers to provide superior fit, especially when compared to systems assembled in the field.

Rapid Installation

Once delivered to the site, these large units can be installed rapidly in order to save both time and money. This approach also allows the building to be enclosed in a fraction of the time compared to conventional curtain wall systems allowing interior work to commence much earlier.

Superior Performance

Once in service, unitized curtain walls offer high levels of performance over the full lifetime of the system without sacrificing design flexibility. Perhaps, that is why architects, contractors, and owners alike can all reap the benefits without compromising their project goals.

Daylight Modeling Studies

A complimentary service to optimize your daylighting design
Kalwall Unitized Curtain Walls Alberta

Radiance Illumination

Provides a "snapshot" of daylight levels at a given point in time. Typically, simulations are made to study light levels at the Fall and Spring Equinoxes during the early morning, at solar noon, and late in the afternoon on both sunny and overcast skies anywhere in the world.

Kalwall Unitized Curtain Walls Manitoba

Glare Pattern Analysis

Helps to idenify potential problem areas where glare is a concern such as offices, classrooms, athetlic facilities and other spaces where visual acuity is critical. These sutdies are especially useful when designers are specifiers call for a mix of translucent and vision glazing (glass).

Daylight Autonomy

Gives averable daylight values and shows what percentage of the time the space can operate at the target light level with daylight alone. sDA (Spatial daylight autonomy) and ASE (annual sunlight exposure) are all available for LEED® documentation for daylighting credits.
