Russian ambassador’s residence, 2019-20

c. 1910 — Sash reproduction, insulating glass, sound attenuating gaskets and weatherstrips

A fascinating and challenging project from design to complete installation in four months. We developed an insulating glass design to enhance sound attenuation while fitting in traditionally styled in-swing casement windows. We built Sepelle Mahogany reproduction sash 2 1/4” thick and installed within them double-laminated 3/4” thick insulating glass with low-e film. All existing hardware was refurbished here in-house as well as the glass and sash manufacture. We look forward to working with the Russians again on this fine piece architecture bought originally by the Czar circa 1913.

egyptian ambassador’s residence, 2002

c. 1907 — Window restoration

ambassador’s residence of the kingdom of netherlands, 1999

c. 1914 — Window restoration with insulating glass retrofit

Our first major insulating glass retrofit into original historic sash. We removed and restored the sash machining them to accommodate 1/2” insulating glass panels. Bonded to their exterior are mahogany components profiled as though they were glazing putty. The sash were returned to their original openings and suspended on counterweights which had to double in size. Twenty years later we have not had a seal or muntin failure.
