What is Stackwall™/Vision Vue® and Finwall™?

Stackwall™/Vision Vue® and Finwall™ are exclusive structural wall systems with glass panels comprising the facade, and vertical glass mullions to structurally resist wind load and seismic forces. Stackwall™/Vision Vue® and Finwall™ are free from visual obstructions, limiting the need for metal framing to the perimeter and creating a seemingly floating glass facade.

Where should I use them?
Moumental Entrances

  • Malls, Museums, Hotel, and Airport, Building Facades
  • Grandstands, Storefronts, and Structural Canopies
  1. Main Plates: Can be monolithic or insulation glass. Acts as an unobstructed glass facade.
  2. Fin: A glass mullion that adds support to the main plates.
  3. Spider fitting: Joins four main plates to the fin.
  4. Splice Plate: Joins the two fins.

Stackwall™/Vision Vue®
An engineered, floor-loaded or suspended wall construction, for heights up to 50', that uses tempered glass mullions to structurally resist wind load and seismic forces. The main plates are joined to the mullions (fins) with metal patch or "spider" fittings and structural silicone. Metal framing is required only at the perimeter and can be revealed or recessed.

Finwall™
Finwall™ is a structural glass wall system for openings less than 16' high. The system provides the aesthetic design characteristics of an exterior flush-glazed wall, using interior glass mullions or fins instead of metal mullions. The glass fins add support to the main glass plate.
