FLUSHLOK II
Horizontal Strip Window/Storefront System

Flushlok II, a front-set, thermally broken, single-span slim line storefront system, is specifically designed for installation with insulated glass, but may be adapted for installation with other infills. Its very efficient thermal qualities are achieved through the use of a Celcon clip that separates the face cap from the back member.


Flushlok II is available in two standard face cap depths and three back member depths for structural integrity (dependent upon windload conditions) to result in overall system depths of from 4 1/2" to 6" in 1/2" increments. All framing members are square cut, which, when combined with screw spline construction, allows for ease of fabrication and installation in either unitized or modular mode. Also, shear block construction can be specified in order to obtain greater flexibility. The Celcon clip thermal separation between the face cap and back member allows for the use of different colors for the face and back members, thus adding to the versatility of this economical, thermal, storefront system.
