Helping save time, labor and associated costs, Tubelite Inc. has engineered its breadth of aluminum-framed fenestration products to serve as individual components and together, as a complete building envelope. Its windows and doors integrate and install into Tubelite's curtainwall, window wall and storefront systems.
Tubelite's products are manufactured to meet the aesthetic, performance and environmental goals of each project, as well as for easy fabrication and installation. Mary Avery, Tubelite's vice president of marketing, explains, "We've introduced several new products in the last few years – our TerraPorte terrace doors, 900RW ribbon windows and Phantom 5000 vents. These fit within our existing products and work together as an integrated system that helps save labor and headaches.
"Customers who once relied on us primarily for our entrances and storefront, now count on Tubelite for their one-stop, total package of aluminum-framed entrance, storefront, curtainwall, ribbon and vent window, and daylighting systems. All of our products have been designed and tested to meet stringent industry performance standards."
Tubelite's products are tested per the American Architectural Manufacturers Association (AAMA) standards for air, water, structural and condensation resistance. They also are tested and modeled for thermal transmittance per the National Fenestration Council (NFRC) procedures.
Avery adds, "Our product engineers have taken the time-consuming work of matching system depths for a consistent appearance and connections for a dependable, proper installation."
