GRAHAM Architectural Products Unveils the SR6800 Window
GRAHAM Architectural Products has recently introduced an exciting innovation in the field of architectural design and restoration with the launch of the SR6800 window. This revolutionary product stands out by seamlessly integrating historical aesthetics with modern performance capabilities.
Bridging Past and Present
In an era when architectural history often clashes with contemporary design needs, the SR6800 window offers a solution that respects the past while meeting present-day efficiency standards. This steel replica window is designed specifically for historical retrofit projects, marrying unmatched thermal efficiency with a meticulously crafted appearance that upholds the architectural integrity of historical buildings.
According to Bill Wilder, Director of Technical Sales at GRAHAM, the SR6800 embodies the brand’s commitment to historical preservation in a way that addresses modern demands. "At GRAHAM, we understand the unique challenges that come with preserving the past while meeting the demands of today. The SR6800 window embodies this balance, featuring small sightlines and customizable design options that replicate traditional steel windows while maximizing thermal performance."
Customization at Its Best
One of the standout features of the SR6800 is its dual finish option, allowing architects and builders to match both interior and exterior aesthetic needs perfectly. This attention to detail ensures that the window is not just a functional element, but also a well-integrated part of the building's character, vital for projects where historical accuracy is a prerequisite.
Focus on Performance
In addition to its visual appeal, the SR6800 has been engineered for exceptional thermal performance. It is particularly well-suited for colder climates, where energy efficiency and thermal insulation are critical components. The advanced design adheres to stringent energy standards, enabling builders to retain the historic charm of buildings without sacrificing comfort and efficiency.
For those curious about practical applications, GRAHAM highlights its performance in real-world scenarios, such as the Harlem River House Project, which showcases the SR6800's capacity to enhance the historical character of significant structures while ensuring modern-day utility.
A Versatile Alternative - The SR6700
For projects where thermal performance isn’t the primary concern but quality and aesthetics still play significant roles, the SR6700 window provides a versatile alternative to the SR6800. It retains many features similar to its counterpart while offering a viable option for builders who prioritize maintaining GRAHAM’s high standards of design and quality.
