Arkansas Glass and Aluminum Systems

Glass, Storefront and Aluminum Door Systems for Arkansas Commercial, Industrial and Campus Projects

PRL Glass Systems, Inc. teams up with architects, designers, builders, contractors and glazing professionals on Arkansas projects of all sizes. From Little Rock and Northwest Arkansas to Fort Smith, Jonesboro and smaller Delta and river towns, we help pick glass and aluminum systems that actually fit local conditions, high humidity, heat, cold fronts and storm season. The goal is simple, give you storefronts and entries that look sharp and hold up without overcomplicating the spec.

With PRL you can source storefront framing, entry doors, insulated glass and security glazing from one place instead of chasing multiple vendors. We package doors, frames, glass and hardware together so openings show up coordinated and ready to install. Thermally broken systems, laminated glass options and impact focused doors are available when projects need extra comfort or protection, while our scheduling and delivery support help Arkansas crews stay ahead of weather and access issues.

Products Engineered for Arkansas’s Climate and Codes

Thermally Broken Storefront Systems For Arkansas Weather Exposed Projects

  • Thermally broken 250DT and 251DT aluminum frames with 2 inch by 4 1/2 inch sections designed for 1 inch glass, a solid fit for Arkansas offices, schools and retail fronts
  • Pour and debridge thermal break in the frame helps cut heat transfer, improve energy efficiency and maintain long term durability, with the barrier tested to extremely low temperatures
  • Can be paired with laminated impact resistant glass that uses a tough interlayer, about five times stronger and 100 times more rigid than standard PVB, for better security and post breakage stability at busy entries
  • Sold as complete storefront packages in clear or dark bronze anodized, powder coat or Kynar finishes, pre glazed and ready to install with matching glass and hardware

Sunny Lux Thermally Broken Aluminum Doors For Arkansas Entries And Lobbies

  • Ultra slim 2 1/8 inch vertical stiles with a 2 7/8 inch thermally broken residental door leaf for a clean look and better energy performance at main entries
  • Air leakage resistant with tested air leakage around 0.26 cfm/ft², which helps cut drafts at busy doors in changing Arkansas weather
  • Water and structural performance tested to handle driven rain and roughly 30 psf positive and negative wind loads, suited to storm season conditions
  • 4 point locking system and a 1/4 inch adjustable jamb so installers can tune the door tight and smooth without rebuilding the opening

Insulated And Low E Glass Units For Arkansas Storefronts And Building Facades

  • Helps cut drafts in winter and reduce glare and solar gain on long south, east and west facing Arkansas elevations
  • Double pane insulated glass units with laminated options where projects need extra security or noise control
  • Modern Low E coatings and optional gas fill support better energy performance than clear IG glass, useful in hot, humid summers
  • Sized, labeled and packed to work smoothly with commercial storefront and entrance systems so glazing crews can stage by floor or elevation without confusion

Battle Doors And Security Entrance Systems For Arkansas Schools And Public Buildings

  • Impact rated aluminum Battle Doors for K-12 schools, city halls, justice centers, clinics and high risk retail entries across Arkansas
  • Thermally broken aluminum frames with a polyamide thermal strut and multi point locking, offered in narrow, medium and wide stile options for heavy traffic entrances
  • Accepts 1/4 inch to 1 inch glass, including 1 inch insulated impact resistant units with Solarban or SNX style Low E coatings, with tested U factors down to about 0.55 for energy savings and comfort in lobbies
  • Supplied as complete door, frame, glass and hardware packages so critical security openings stay on one coordinated order and delivery schedule for Arkansas projects

Frequently Asked Questions:

Locally Grounded, Regionally Available

What glass and storefront systems work best for Arkansas heat, humidity and storms?

Many Arkansas projects start with thermally broken storefront framing and insulated Low E glass on main elevations, then add Sunny Lux or security entrance doors at key openings. That mix helps manage heat, humidity, drafts and storm exposure around the glass while keeping framing and glazing details practical for local contractors.

How does PRL support Arkansas school and public safety projects?

For schools and public buildings, we often combine thermally broken storefronts with insulated and laminated glass, then use Battle Doors or other security focused entrances at main doors and office areas. We coordinate door hardware and glass choices early so drawings stay clear and the final package supports everyday use and stronger access control.

Can you supply Arkansas projects outside the major cities?

Yes. PRL serves large metros, mid sized cities and small towns alike. We bundle storefronts, doors, glass and hardware into organized crates and ship through regional carriers.
