Kawneer Curtain Walling & Brise Soleil
The AA®100 curtain wall system is available as a standard 50mm system, or for increased loads and movement, a 65mm system. By providing a unique dry jointed facade solution the AA®100 and AA®110 systems can be installed as fully capped, horizontal capped, or structural silicone glazed. For 30 minute fire resistance the AA®100/AA®110 FR is designed as a stick curtain wall assembly. PF curtain wall is a mullion drained modular curtain wall system, which externally has the appearance of an all glass facade.
AA®201 unitised curtain wall is a modular facade solution. Individual panels or units are assembled off site in factory controlled conditions then transported to site and craned onto the building. This helps to meet the demands of today’s fast paced construction schedules of high performance, fast installation, simplified fabrication, superior performance and design flexibility.
Kawneer’s curtain wall, window and framing systems can accommodate the Kawneer AA®130 Brise Soleil System which adds a stunning design statement to the building facade; optimising the natural daylight within a building whilst limiting the solar heat gain and glare to provide optimum comfort for residents. A comprehensive range of both standard and bespoke sections in a variety of shapes, sizes and colours is available.
Kawneere’s PF Curtain Wall is a mullion drained modular curtain wall system, designed so that, when viewed externally, the opening vents and the fixed lights have the same visual appearance, making it an attractive and practical option for many curtain walling requirements. The PF system consists of panellised frames that are attached, as either fixed lights, opening lights or panel areas, to the curtain wall grids. Each glazed panel has a visible face of 28mm in width which in combination with a 14mm recess between the panels, gives an overall sightline of 70mm. Alternatively, a structurally glazed version of the system is available, giving the facade an all glass appearance when viewed from the outside, with only a 14mm recessed gap between each pane.
Kawneer Windows
The AA®720 windows are a 72mm profile incorporating the very latest thermal technology and meet the latest european requirements for thermal perfornance, including expected changes up to 2019. Glazing and panels up to 56mm thickness can be accommodated enabling the use of triple glazing. The AA®720 windows offer versatility in design encompassing a wide variety of configurations, including the AA®720 FR (Fire Resistant) consisting of door and fixed light varients.
The AA®540 series corresponds to the BRE Global Green Guide online generic specification for windows and achieves a summary rating of A*. The range consists of the AA®541 casement, the AA®542 pivot and the AA®543 tilturn window designed to offer optimum weather and thermal performance at a competitive price.
The AA®600TE and AA®600TEPlus series is a high performance totally integrated system consisting of the AA®601TE and AA®601TEPlus casement, AA®601TE parallel opening, AA®602TE pivot, the AA®603TE tilturn and the AA®603 tilt slide, available as a door or a window.
For the replacement of steel windows the GT70 Slimline Renovation window is Kawneer’s aluminium profile that is designed to replicate steel windows.
Kawneer Sliding Solutions
Kawneer also supplies an extensive range of door and window sliding solutions. These include the AA®3110 horizontal sliding window & door, the specialist healthcare AA®3110HW window, the AA®3610 vertical sliding window and the AA®3610LS window, a unique solution which opens the top and bottom sashes simultaneously for improved ventilation.
The AA®3720 folding/sliding door and the AA®3572 lift/slide door systems have been developed as a solution for projects that demand the highest levels of thermal and weathering performance. The AA®3720 is equally suited to the discerning home owner or installed in commercial premises that wish to enhance the environment whilst the AA®3572 is an ideal space saving solution where safety is a consideration and projecting swing doors are undesirable.
Kawneer Entrance Doors & Framing
The 190 narrow style door is recommended for use in heavy traffic areas and the 350 heavy duty door provides the durability needed in especially high traffic areas. The 10D door has been designed to offer flexibility in design, durability and ease of installation. Kawneer offers two swing doors, both single action open-in or open-out with the AA®545 designed to offer optimum weather and thermal performance at a competitive price and the AA®605TE/AA®605TEPlus designed to optimise thermal performance.
The AA®603TE tilt/slide door is available in a variety of single or double tilt slide and fixed light combinations and is ideal for the high rise residential market. The AA®720 door is available in two levels of thermal performance to enable flexibility of design, performance and cost. The AA®720 FR is a door and fixed light variants enabling design flexibility when fire protection is a requirement to building design.
Kawneer has two framing systems available, the thermally efficient 451PT suitable for ground and first floor applications, combining thermal performance with product aesthetics, suitable for use on commercial projects, in the public sector and is also ideal for large display windows in the retail sector. Also the AA®4001, a semi-unitised system which complies with acoustics to BB93 and provides students with environmentally friendly BB95 classrooms and is ideal for refurbishment projects.

Kawneer glazing systems feature on a futuristic transport hub
Kawneer glazing systems feature on a futuristic transport hub
The new Gloucester bus station features curtain walling, windows and doors by Kawneer.
Architectural glazing systems by leading UK manufacturer Kawneer were specified for a transport hub at the heart of the regeneration of an area of Gloucester for their ability to meet a trio of exacting requirements - aesthetics, performance and budget.
Kawneer's AA®100 zone-drained curtain walling, AA®720 thermally superior doors and two types of windows - AA®540 fixed lights and AA®3110 horizontal sliders - were selected by regular Kawneer specifiers BDP architects for the £6.6 million futuristic new Gloucester bus station.
Designed with a single roof plane to resemble an aircraft wing and pay homage to the city's aviation history, the building is a stunning interpretation of the brief which was to deliver an iconic yet affordable transport hub.
The new transport hub forms part of the initial phase of the regeneration of the city's Kings Quarter and will integrate into the retail element with improved pedestrian links to the railway station and city centre.
The facility includes bus stands for 12 vehicles arranged in a chevron format to allow a DIRO (drive in, reverse out) method of operation. It is also equipped with solar panels to power internal lighting and has been designed to be fully accessible for people with disabilities.
With the Kawneer curtain walling at its core, the building is highly transparent to provide maximum visual contact with its surroundings and a calm, airy environment. The width of the public concourse allows ample circulation space as well as waiting and eating areas for individual stands.
As well as providing a dramatic and iconic sculptural form, the roof wing has an aerofoil section and is punctuated at several points to allow further light penetration to the concourse and bus stands.
Passenger information systems, timetable displays, interactive information points, a manned ticket office and a café, as well as a display of the Roman wall that was discovered underneath the foundations, also form part of the facilities.
Built on a brownfield site next to the old bus station, it will serve as a brand-new gateway to the city, replacing the dilapidated building which had stood largely unchanged for 50 years.
BDP architect Nick Fairham said: "The Kawneer systems suited our needs and were within budget. They help to define the public concourse from the bus stands."
The Kawneer systems were installed over 15 weeks of a three-year build by a team of six from approved dealer Aluminium Sashes for main contractor Kier Construction.
Aluminium Sashes' sales director Andrew Mather said: "The design of the main concourse curtain walling included 12 automatic doors allowing access to the external bus bays. These openings gave us an engineering challenge to provide support to the larger glass units above but we overcame this through collaborative design workshops with BDP's structural engineers."
City council leader Cllr Paul James said: "What we have got is a striking building that provides a statement of our ambitions for the city and sets the tone for the rest of the (Kings Quarter) development.
"We are very fortunate to have got Government funding because it would have been very difficult for us to have made it happen without that support."
At the official opening [on Friday 26 October 2018] the station received a cavalcade of 15 vintage buses driven from Gloucester Docks across the city.
Kawneer set to perform a hat trick for Bournemouth University
Kawneer set to perform a hat trick for Bournemouth University
Installation of Kawneer systems on the second of three buildings has just started.
Work has just begun on the installation of architectural glazing systems by leading manufacturer Kawneer on the second of three buildings at Bournemouth University.
Approved dealer Leay is installing Kawneer's AA®100 zone-drained capped curtain walling, along with AA®541 fixed light windows and two types of doors on the 5,000m2 Fusion 2/Poole Gateway Building (pictured) designed by Atkins architects.
Leay's team of up to 10 operatives, who are also installing AA®720 and series 190 heavy-duty entrance doors, is expected to be on site until January while the overall project is scheduled for completion by Willmott Dixon in September 2019.
The new £27 million landmark building will target BREEAM "Excellent" and provide specialist facilities for two of the university's internationally renowned faculties - Media and Communication and Science and Technology.
The building will house state-of-the-art facilities on a series of tiered floors. This will include many multi-media areas, each with acoustically and visually sensitive areas, including TV and film studios, audio editing, media production spaces, green screen and motion capture suites, and animation studios.
Leay's business development manager Mike Watts said: "The project is in essence large triangular curtain wall screens to the front and rear elevations. These screens are 25m wide and 15m high at the tallest point and are located within the atrium.
"The client was keen to see clean sightlines and minimal steelwork so we worked alongside the structural engineer to ensure the intermediate steels to tie the screen back to were kept to a minimum in quantity and also a minimum in size by calculating the screen to transfer and deadload itself down on to the ground-bearing slab.
"We proposed the use of Kawneer products to the architect and Willmott Dixon from day one on this scheme as we knew they would provide the aesthetics the architect was requiring and also the structural integrity required for the spans of curtain wall."
Designed to form a new visual gateway to the university's Talbot Campus and its parkland setting, it forms part of a wider £100 million programme to expand the university's facilities.
Work has also started on installing Kawneer systems on a third building at the university - a £40 million new home for the Faculty of Health and Social Sciences.
Again designed by Atkins but this time with main contractor Kier, the Fusion 3/Bournemouth Gateway Building will feature Kawneer's AA®100 zone/mullion drained curtain walling with feature face caps on tall atrium screens along with AA®720 window vents and entrance doors and series 190 doors.
Kawneer approved dealer Aluminium Sashes will have a team of up to eight operatives on site until April 2019.
Kawneer systems were also used in 2017 on the original £22 million Fusion building at the university which fuses education, research and professional practice through a mix of flexible informal study and social collaborative spaces including 27 seminar rooms, three lecture theatres, research space and a 24-station PC laboratory.
Kawneer's AA®100 zone-drained curtain walling, AA®541 top-hung casement windows, AA®545 low/medium duty swing doors and series 190 doors were installed by approved dealer AB Glass for Willmott Dixon to a BDP design.
This 5,800m2* BREEAM "Excellent" building is topped with a glass dome, allowing maximum natural light into the building. Feature cladding bands were fixed to the Kawneer curtain walling by aluminium fins.
