Series 4100 Aluminum Fixed Glass Windows
The Boyd Series 4100 is a commercial aluminum fixed glass window designed to create the look of a 2" x 4" storefront or curtain wall system with the performance of a factory-glazed window. Its outside front-glazed design and unique cavity anchoring system support a uniform appearance with storefront framing while simplifying installation and providing high-performance fixed-window construction.
Designed and tested for contemporary architectural projects in coastal conditions, the Series 4100 is tested to AAMA impact standards and helps protect people in universities, schools, military structures, hospitals, and government buildings. Standard features include bead-glazed 1.25" insulated glass, a 4.75" main frame depth, thermal-break performance, and an AW-PG90 AAMA rating.

When to Use the Series 4100 Fixed Window
Fixed, non-operable openings that need the visual appearance of 2" x 4" storefront or curtain wall framing.
Projects that benefit from a factory-glazed window system instead of field-glazed storefront framing.
Contemporary commercial and institutional buildings in coastal conditions.
Universities, schools, military structures, hospitals, and government buildings.
Openings requiring AW-PG90 performance, thermal-break construction, 1.25" glazing, and cavity-anchor coordination.
Series 4100 Fixed Windows vs. Storefront Framing
Use the Series 4100 when the design calls for a fixed, factory-glazed window that creates a storefront or curtain-wall-like appearance while retaining window-level testing, anchoring, and performance. Review Boyd commercial aluminum storefront systems when the project requires a complete storefront framing assembly, entrance integration, field glazing, or larger continuous glazed openings.

Common Series 4100 Coordination Items
Storefront and curtain wall appearance: Coordinate the 2" x 4" visual profile, glass plane, mullion spacing, adjacent framing, and exterior alignment shown in the elevations.
Factory glazing and exterior access: Confirm the outside front-glazed condition, installation sequence, access requirements, and relationship to surrounding construction.
Cavity anchoring: Coordinate the anchoring cavity, opening dimensions, substrates, anchors, and perimeter conditions before release.
Glazing: Confirm the specified glass makeup, overall thickness, safety-glazing requirements, and project performance criteria.
Coastal exposure and finish: Coordinate finish specifications, corrosion-related project requirements, adjacent metals, and maintenance expectations separately from impact or structural performance.
Impact and blast requirements: Include the exact project criteria and request the applicable documentation for the selected configuration.
