Thermally Broken Commercial Storefronts

Thermally Broken Commercial Storefronts offer an innovative solution for businesses looking to enhance energy efficiency in their buildings. These storefronts are designed with advanced thermal insulation technology that significantly minimizes heat transfer. As a result, they contribute to a more stable indoor climate, reducing the reliance on heating and cooling systems. When installed in commercial settings they can drastically lower energy costs, making them an economical choice for business owners.

By opting for thermally broken storefronts, companies can achieve higher energy efficiency ratings. The insulation barrier effectively keeps indoor temperatures regulated, which has a direct impact on how much energy is consumed. With less energy required for heating and cooling, businesses can enjoy lower utility bills and a smaller carbon footprint, making them a smart choice for the environmentally conscious.

Moreover, these advanced storefront systems are engineered for superior strength and high rigidity, ensuring they can withstand the rigors of urban environments. With features like laminated safety glass and shatter-resistant glass door technology, our storefronts not only promise aesthetic appeal but also deliver exceptional performance and longevity.

Energy Savings and Security All-in-One!

Security is critical for any commercial property, and PRL Glass and Aluminum treats it as a core design priority. Our impact-resistant storefront systems pair robust framing with laminated safety glass that uses a tough interlayer to deter break-ins and slow intrusion, helping protect people and property. For higher-risk locations, optional blast-mitigation configurations add another layer of protection without sacrificing visibility or aesthetics.

Reducing energy consumption is also a critical concern for many businesses today, and thermally broken commercial storefronts offer an effective solution for both security and energy savings. By preventing unwanted heat loss or gain, these storefronts help maintain consistent interior temperatures, which can significantly reduce the overall energy consumption associated with HVAC systems. This seamless temperature control results in a more comfortable environment for both customers and employees.
