Products Focus: Windows & Doors
Flute Collection
Rocky Mountain Hardware
Hospitality designer Roger Thomas draws on the classical fluted columns of Greece for his new line of door and cabinet handles and pulls. The collection includes 14 lever, pull, grip, and knob styles, as well as complementing escutcheons, all accented with micro grooves. Cast of 90% post-consumer recycled bronze, the pieces are offered in 10 standard finishes.
Cornell and Cookson
Custom Designed Rolling Steel Doors
In their closed, secured position, Cornell and Cookson's rolling steel doors can now function as a billboard, wayfinding or main-entrance signage, or simply decorative backdrop for passersby. The company has developed a new process to bake custom color imagery onto the doors, from photorealistic graphics and faux textures to company logos and typography.
LaCantina Doors
Swing Doors
The slim stile and rail profiles—from 2¾” to 3⅝”—of LaCantina's Swing Doors allow for larger open areas that bring in more natural light and outdoor views. To meet different climate and aesthetic needs, the framing system can be specified in aluminum, aluminum with thermal breaks, aluminum with solid wood core, and a dual finish featuring an aluminum exterior and wood interior.
Baldwin Hardware
Santa Monica Door Sets
The streamlined designs offered in the Santa Monica series are inspired by the modern houses that dot California's coast. Suitable for entrances or corridor, patio, or French doors, the collection includes five levers, four rosettes, a handleset with either mortise or multipoint lock, and a square deadbolt. The hardware is composed of solid forged brass and offered in 19 finishes ranging from distressed oil-rubbed bronze to satin nickel.
Kawneer
AA 6400/6500 Thermal Window
Designed to meet the climate challenges of northern regions, these windows feature framing and pressure-equalized cavities that aim to deliver exceptional thermal performance and condensation resistance. Additionally, because the interior side is dry-glazed, the units are easily reglazed in the field. The aluminum frames are offered in 4” or 5” deep versions, and can be specified in different colors for the interior and exterior faces.
Construction Specialties
Cradle to Cradle Acrovyn Doors
The manufacturer made news when it announced this year at AIA that its standard Acrovyn door models received Cradle to Cradle Bronze certification—making it the first company to achieve the designation for a door. The interior doors—composed of particleboard, a mineral core, and chemical-of-concern–free adhesives and fire retardants—are available in 15 wood-grain patterns, 60 solid colors, or two simulated metal finishes.
New openings and door hardware exemplify sustainability, beauty, and customization.
