Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between UniQuad® and glass wall systems?
UniQuad® polycarbonate systems are lighter in weight than comparable glass systems, allowing for greater design flexibility and making them easy to install. They also provide built-in light control, eliminating the need for costly exterior or interior shading devices.
Can I incorporate other materials with the UniQuad® glazing like glass or metal panels?
Smaller sized glass glazing can be incorporated with a UniQuad® system, and Kingspan insulated panels can also integrated into the system for a unique look. Contact us for more details and design considerations.
How long can each UniQuad® panel span?
UniQuad® can be configured with continuous panel lengths up to 38 feet for a clean exterior look. Internal supports allow spans up to 12 feet depending on loading conditions. Contact us for information related to your specific project needs.
Do UniQuad® glazing panels come pre-assembled?
UniQuad® glazing panels arrive pre-assembled for quality control and ease of installation.
Can I design a UniQuad® system with custom colors?
Yes – custom colors are available. Interior and exterior colors can be different as well, creating a unique look. Contact us for information on color matching and available options.
