The new Wausau 4000i-DTFX fully fixed windows with optional between-glass blinds ensure high levels of patient safety, security and privacy for behavioral, psychiatric and mental health care settings. For more than 40 years, hospitals, clinics and specialty care facilities have been using the DT Series behavioral care product line of Wausau Window, a brand of Apogee Architectural Metals.

Saving time and labor in the field, Wausau 4000i-DTFX can be installed from either the interior or exterior, and are stackable. Durable, abrasion-resistant finishes make it easy to maintain the windows’ appearance and functionality. These Wausau Window products are supported with a warranty of up to 10 years.

Wausau DT Series and its custom-engineered psychiatric window systems are used by several state agencies and their architectural consulting partners. For example, the New York State Office of Metal Health (NYS-OMH) uses Wausau DT Series windows and references them in its Patient Safety Standards, Materials and Systems Guidelines, developed in association with Architecture+.

Quanex is excited to introduce PowerLink—a concealed hinged wiring conduit from AmesburyTruth that opens the door to a new category of applications for your smart glass technologies.

Until now, advanced glass solutions like electrochromic tinting, switchable privacy, and integrated solar technologies have been limited to fixed window applications. PowerLink changes that.

PowerLink enables power transfer to operable windows, including casements and awnings, allowing window manufacturers to integrate your smart glass into functional openings for egress or ventilation—such as bedrooms and bathrooms.

• Works with standard window hardware for seamless integration
• Protects wiring from damage and environmental exposure
• Supports factory-installed configurations by window manufacturers
• Delivers reliable, hard-wired power for high-demand smart glass functions

By partnering with window and door manufacturers using PowerLink, you can expand your market and bring your advanced glass technologies to a broader range of residential and commercial applications. PowerLink gives your smart glass a new way in. To learn more or discuss compatibility, contact Quanex today.

Alpen High Performance Products offers new, slimmer profile options in its Tyrol uPVC window system. Tyrol Edge and Tyrol Contour advance the platform's design flexibility while preserving its energy efficiency, with whole-window thermal performance up to R-11 (U-0.09).

• Large-format windows with slimmer sightlines: A composite frame with continuous fiberglass reinforcement, combined with lightweight triple-pane AlpenGlass, reduces weight by 30-50% while maintaining structural rigidity for sizes up to 78.75 inches by 118 inches.
   
• Whole-window thermal performance up to R-11 (U-0.09): Optional quad-pane AlpenGlass IGUs boost center-of-glass R-values up to R-15 (U-0.067).
   
• Air infiltration as low as 0.01 CFM/square foot: Supporting both Passive House certification and draft-free indoor comfort.
   
• Acoustic benefits: Asymmetrical IGU construction, featuring an ultra-thin glass core, and a triple-sealed frame design dampen sound transmission up to STC 45/ OITC 37.
   
• Design flexibility: Two new profiles – Edge and Contour – accommodate both contemporary and classic building aesthetics, with Alpen's European-style, dual-action tilt-turn functionality in a slimmer frame.

Unlike conventional vinyl windows, Alpen's Tyrol is manufactured from uPVC (unplasticized polyvinyl chloride), with a multi-chambered frame design and continuous fiberglass reinforcements. This approach eliminates the warping, cracking, and thermal performance loss seen in traditional plasticized vinyl systems.

The Tyrol system continues to serve a wide range of high-performance building applications – from code-compliant commercial buildings and affordable multi-family housing to Passive House and net zero homes – by balancing energy efficiency, structural performance, and long-life practicality backed by 10 to 20-year warranties.
