Hidden Frame Curtain Wall System

Hidden Frame Curtain Wall System Overview

The standard hidden frame curtain wall system is designed to create a seamless glass facade by eliminating visible exterior framing. Glass panels are structurally bonded to aluminum profiles using high-performance silicone, ensuring both clean architectural appearance and reliable structural performance for commercial buildings.

Hidden Frame Curtain Wall Design and Finishing Options

The system is available in multiple profile depths and glazing configurations to accommodate different building heights, structural requirements, and facade designs. It supports a wide range of glass thicknesses and layout options, allowing flexibility for both standard and customized architectural projects.

All aluminum profiles can be finished with PVDF coating, powder coating, or anodizing to ensure long-term durability, color consistency, and resistance to environmental exposure. Custom engineering solutions are available for projects requiring specific performance or design adaptations.

FAQS

Frequently Asked Questions

Understanding how a hidden frame curtain wall system works is essential for selecting the right facade solution. Below are answers to common questions related to performance, structure, and application.

What is a hidden frame curtain wall system?

A hidden frame curtain wall system uses structural silicone to bond glass panels to the frame, eliminating visible exterior aluminum profiles and creating a seamless glass appearance.

Is a hidden frame curtain wall suitable for high-rise buildings?

Yes, it is designed to provide sufficient wind load resistance and structural stability for mid- to high-rise building applications.

What is the difference between hidden frame and exposed frame curtain walls?

Hidden frame systems conceal the aluminum structure behind the glass, while exposed frame systems use visible caps and pressure plates on the exterior.

What types of glass can be used in this system?

The system supports double glazing, laminated glass, and other energy-efficient glass configurations depending on project requirements.

How does the system ensure waterproof performance?

It uses multi-layer sealing and drainage design to prevent water infiltration and maintain long-term facade performance.
