Commercial window frames from Fairview bring strength and design presence to the UniMed building

Choosing the right window frames can bring added strength to a building project, while the right glazing creates a cool, low-e outlook for occupants.

UniMed building in Christchurch is a case in point. The flagship building includes a mixture of frames from Fairview Systems 100mm, 125mm and 150mm Commercial seismic frames and 40mm Architectural installed by Canterbury Aluminium.

All joinery is Mist Black Anodised and features frameless glass doors at the entry points, says Canterbury Aluminium's Shaun Crawley.

"Visually the building is impressive the front fae§ade is four storeys high with our joinery covering3.8m x 21m on each floor. The glazing is N70 Clima-guard Low E which has a nice blue-green tinge."

The firm also installed joinery to the 14m internal feature stairs that rise to Fairview's glazed roof light.
