Sleek, efficient and versatile. FG 501T Window Wall – the first in the MetroView™ Window Wall series – packs the desired aesthetics of a curtain wall into a cost-efficient window wall system. Ideal for mid-rise commercial projects and sophisticated multi-family housing, MetroView™ FG 501T Window Wall delivers the refined design features that are so popular in today’s urban and near-urban cityscapes.

MetroView™ FG 501T Window Wall offers the look of a true curtain wall with a slab-to-slab aluminum frame design. For maximum square footage in interior spaces, FG 501T Window Wall is engineered for shallow horizontal inside glazing with the glass set to the front of the system.
