Wichita Window Replacement provides professional commercial storefront and curtain wall in Wichita, KS for residential and commercial properties across south central Kansas. Commercial glazing in Wichita runs from the brick warehouse blocks of Old Town to the metal buildings along the aviation corridor, and the two ends of that range need completely different work from completely different trades. A tenant fit-out and a warehouse elevation are not the same trade at all.
Downtown and Old Town are largely masonry buildings with punched openings and, in the older industrial stock, original steel sash by the acre. Those multi-light industrial units are repairable, and the same rust cycle that destroys a residential casement destroys them in exactly the same way, only spread across an elevation that may be twenty feet tall and forty wide.
Retail and office frontage is aluminium storefront. Standard framing runs in one and three-quarter by four and a half inch and two by four and a half inch profiles, in clear and dark bronze anodised finishes, and the glass in it is tempered wherever the code names a hazard location, which on an entrance elevation covers nearly the whole wall.
Thermally broken framing is worth specifying on any conditioned space in this climate. A bare aluminium storefront in a Kansas January sweats onto the tile inside the entry, which is a slip hazard for customers as well as a heating cost for the tenant, and polyamide struts splitting the section stop it happening. Retrofitting a thermal break later is not possible, so the decision belongs at specification.
Entrance doors carry rules of their own. Accessible entries need adequate clear width, hardware operable without tight grasping, pinching or twisting of the wrist, and a closer adjusted to the required opening force. We adjust closers on service calls a great deal more often than we replace whole doors. Getting a closer wrong is one of the most common accessibility complaints in retail frontage.
Insulated storefront glass belongs on the west and south elevations of any tenant space with people working in it. A low-emissivity coating on the correct surface cuts afternoon heat gain enough to visibly change how the front third of a retail floor feels through August, and staff notice within a week. It also reduces the load on a rooftop unit that is probably already working hard.
We keep common lite sizes and safety glazing available for fast turnaround, because a broken storefront pane is a security problem and a revenue problem simultaneously. Board-up happens the same day and permanent glass goes in as soon as the unit is fabricated and delivered. We would rather answer the call at seven in the morning than schedule it for next week.
Property managers get a different kind of quote from us. We survey the whole building, separate what is actually failing from what is merely ugly, and phase the work so the elevations costing real money get addressed first rather than the ones that happen to face the parking lot.
Our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — hot-rolled steel casement sections, putty-glazed single lights in steel rebates, projected vents on friction stays, cast stone sills and brick soldier courses, masonry punched openings without jamb depth, half-inch steel sightlines — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Wichita and nearby communities including Derby, Haysville, Park City, Bel Aire.

Materials, equipment and how we do commercial storefront and curtain wall
The difference between commercial storefront and curtain wall that lasts and commercial storefront and curtain wall that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with hot-rolled steel casement sections, putty-glazed single lights in steel rebates, projected vents on friction stays, cast stone sills and brick soldier courses, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Wichita job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. Years of window work in south central Kansas means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
