Glazing Systems &Architectural Glass

Modern architecture utilizes glass in ways that previous generations of architects and designers would never have imagined. With each new building, designs continue to push boundaries and become increasingly innovative.

“We don’t just install curtain walls and facades—

we bring visions to life.”

Every time an architect explores new forms, patterns, and structures, we see it as an opportunity to demonstrate our capabilities.

What We Build

Eight Systems,
Infinite Applications

From high-rise curtain walls and window walls to interior glass partitions, sunshades, and louvers—every system is designed, coordinated, and installed in-house by GSI.

Curtain Wall — Glass Systems Inc. 01

Curtain Wall

Handles high-rise wind loads, seismic movement, and thermal cycling. The defining glass system for commercial high-rise architecture.

  • Unitized or stick-framed to match schedule
  • Integrates sunshades, spandrel & operable vents
  • AAMA, ASTM & NFRC tested and certified
  • In-house shop drawings & envelope coordination
Window Wall — Glass Systems Inc. 02

Window Wall

Floor-to-floor glass spans independent of the primary structure. GSI helped pioneer Window Wall in the Southeast and brings that mastery to every project.

  • Thermally broken frames for energy performance
  • Ideal for residential, hospitality & mixed-use high-rise
  • Faster installation than curtainwall in many conditions
  • Compatible with diverse floor plate geometries
Punched Windows — Glass Systems Inc. 03

Punched Windows

Discrete openings set within a solid facade. Ideal for mid-rise residential, hospitality, and mixed-use where a punched window language defines the exterior rhythm.

  • Thermally broken frames that meet energy code
  • Pairs with precast, GFRC, masonry & rainscreen
  • Fixed, operable, and projected configurations
Storefronts — Glass Systems Inc. 04

Storefronts

The face of the building at street level. Designed for fast-track installation on aggressive retail and commercial schedules without sacrificing thermal performance.

  • Ground-floor daylighting & visibility
  • Custom sightlines, fin glass & high-span conditions
  • Coordinated with entrance systems & canopies
Entrance Systems — Glass Systems Inc. 05

Entrance Systems

Sets the tone for the entire building envelope from the first step inside. Commercial-grade hardware engineered for high-traffic institutional environments.

  • ADA-compliant configurations from the start
  • High-traffic commercial-grade hardware
  • Coordinated with adjacent curtainwall & canopy
Glass Partitions — Glass Systems Inc. 06

Glass Partitions

Interior demising walls that maintain visual openness without sacrificing function. Frameless and framed configurations for offices, lobbies, and collaborative spaces.

  • Frameless & framed configurations available
  • Acoustic performance for privacy when needed
  • Integrates with doors, hardware & ceiling systems
Sunshades — Glass Systems Inc. 07

Sunshades

Exterior shading devices that manage solar performance while creating distinctive architectural expression. Fully customizable in profile, finish, and configuration.

  • Reduces solar heat gain & cooling loads
  • Improves daylighting quality throughout the day
  • Custom profiles & powder-coat finishes
Louvers & Grilles — Glass Systems Inc. 08

Louvers & Grilles

Where function meets identity. Louvers and ornamental grilles manage ventilation and visibility while giving the building a unique visual character.

  • Conceals mechanical equipment & high-traffic areas
  • Enhances security without sacrificing aesthetics
  • Custom ornamental & functional configurations

Glass Types & Capabilities

A Glass Solution
for Every Vision

Our glass offerings meet a wide range of project needs. Through our extensive supplier network, we can source virtually any glass required for your project.

Heat-Strengthened Glass

Twice the strength of annealed glass, heat-strengthened glass provides superior resistance to thermal stress and mechanical loads—ideal for high-performance facade systems.

Tempered Glass

Up to four times stronger than standard glass, tempered glass shatters into small, blunt fragments for maximum safety. A staple of commercial entrances, facades, and interior applications.

Laminated Glass

Two or more glass layers bonded with an interlayer for enhanced safety, sound control, and UV protection. Essential for hurricane zones, security applications, and overhead glazing.

There are few types of glass we haven’t worked with. All materials are selected and manufactured to meet both the aesthetic goals and the structural and performance demands of your project.

How We Work

We don’t show up at bid time
and disappear after closeout.

GSI engages at the earliest stages of design—when system selection decisions still have room to move. We coordinate shop drawings in-house, self-perform every installation, and stay accountable through final punch. Four decades of projects have taught us that the difference between a good facade and a great one is almost always made before a single piece of glass is ordered.

Let’s Bring Your Vision to Life
