Aluminum Services
Commercial Aluminum and Glazing Systems for the Midwest
AGA Architectural Glass and Aluminum installs curtain walls, storefronts, windows, skylights, and aluminum panels for commercial projects across Indiana and the Midwest. Based in Columbia City, Indiana, we serve general contractors, architects, and building owners who need a glazing partner they can count on from pre-construction through closeout.
Clearly Better. Every system. Every project.
Curtain Wall Systems
Multi-story facade systems for commercial and institutional buildings
Curtain wall spans floor to floor, manages thermal movement, controls water infiltration, and handles structural deflection, all while meeting the visual requirements of the building design.
AGA installs curtain wall systems for offices, healthcare facilities, educational buildings, and institutional projects across Indiana.
What we bring:
- System selection matched to structural and thermal requirements
- In-house fabrication for tighter quality and lead time control
- Experienced field crews on complex, high-visibility installations
- Pre-construction coordination with structural, mechanical, and envelope trades
Common applications: office buildings, healthcare campuses, educational facilities, government buildings, mixed-use developments
Storefront and Entrance Systems
Ground-level systems where the first impression lasts
AGA installs storefront and entrance systems for retail fronts, medical lobbies, educational entrances, automotive dealerships, and institutional buildings across Indiana and the Midwest.
What we bring:
- Correct system selection for the application, wind load, and thermal requirements
- Proper flashing, sill, and waterproofing integration
- Hardware selection including ADA accessibility compliance
- Automatic door coordination through our Stanley Access Technologies partnership
Common applications: retail and restaurant fronts, medical office lobbies, educational entrances, automotive dealership showrooms, government building entries
Aluminum Window Systems
Durable, low-maintenance windows for commercial buildings
AGA installs commercial aluminum window systems for offices, healthcare facilities, educational buildings, and institutional projects, including thermally broken frames for high-performance envelope applications.
Key considerations:
- Thermal performance: thermally broken vs non-thermally broken for Indiana's climate
- Glass specification: U-value, SHGC, and safety glazing requirements
- Operability: fixed, projected, casement, or double-hung
- Finish: anodized, painted, or custom color
Aluminum Skylights
Overhead glazing that brings natural light into commercial spaces
AGA installs aluminum skylight systems for lobbies, atriums, educational spaces, healthcare facilities, and covered walkways across Indiana and the Midwest.
Key considerations:
- Structural support for skylight load and thermal movement
- Glazing specification with appropriate solar control for Indiana's climate
- Drainage (flashing, curb height, and water management)
- Condensation management for cold-climate installations
Aluminum Panels
Spandrel, rainscreen, and architectural panel systems
AGA installs aluminum panel systems as part of complete curtain wall and facade packages, integrating solid panel infill with vision glazing for a single-source building envelope solution.
Panel options:
- Aluminum composite material panels
- Painted aluminum sheet panels
- Custom color and finish options
- Integration with insulation and vapor barrier systems
Why Choose AGA
In-House Fabrication
We fabricate aluminum framing systems at our Columbia City facility, meaning there is tighter quality control, confirmed field dimensions, and that we are ready to install when it arrives on site.
Year-Round Installation
We install in Indiana winters, summer heat, and everything in between. Your schedule does not slip because of the weather.
Pre-Construction Involvement
Get us involved early. We confirm system selection, resolve coordination issues, and build glass lead times into the project schedule before bid.
One Point of Contact
One team responsible for the full aluminum and glazing scope from estimating through closeout. Less coordination. Fewer handoffs.
Serving Indiana and the Midwest
Fort Wayne. Warsaw. Huntington. Kokomo. South Bend. Northeast Indiana and the broader Midwest.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between curtain wall and storefront?
Curtain wall is a multi-story system that spans floor to floor, designed for larger buildings with higher wind load and thermal performance requirements. Storefront is anchored at the floor and head, designed for ground-level, single-story, or low-rise applications. The right choice depends on building height, load requirements, thermal performance targets, and budget.
How early should I involve a glazing contractor?
As early as possible, ideally during pre-construction. Early involvement allows for system confirmation, drawing coordination, lead time planning, and value engineering before the design is locked.
Does AGA fabricate in-house?
Yes. AGA fabricates aluminum framing systems at our Columbia City, Indiana facility. In-house fabrication gives us tighter control over quality, dimensions, and lead times.
Can AGA install automatic doors?
Yes. AGA is a Stanley Access Technologies partner and installs automatic sliding, swinging, and bi-parting door systems integrated with our storefront and entrance scope.
What areas does AGA serve?
AGA primarily serves Northeast Indiana and the surrounding Midwest region. Contact us to discuss your specific project location.
Have a commercial project with glazing or aluminum scope in Indiana or the Midwest?
Get AGA involved early. The earlier we are in the process, the more value we can add.
