Series 6300 Historic Project-Out Windows

Boyd's Series 6300 is a historic-oriented commercial aluminum project-out window with clean sightlines that reflect both classic steel-window character and current architectural design. For restoration and adaptive-reuse projects, the Series 6300 is available with exterior-applied historic grids and muntin systems that permit reglazing without grid removal. Modern performance and a classic look make the Series 6300 an excellent choice for schools, offices, colleges, hospitals, government buildings, military facilities, and other monumental commercial applications.

Tested to AW-PG90, the thermally broken Series 6300 features a 3.25" main frame, dual corner-key construction, inside- or outside-set glazing up to 1" thick, and 15 psf water resistance for demanding conditions. Stainless-steel four-bar friction hinges can be coordinated with standard, custodial, push-bar, or rotary operating hardware, while true divided-lite, interior, and historical muntins, removable screens, perimeter accessories, finish selections, and project-specific customization support contemporary and historic-review requirements.

When to Use the Series 6300 Project-Out Window

  • Historic restoration, adaptive-reuse, or replacement openings requiring outward-projecting operation and a classic steel-window-inspired appearance.

  • Schools, offices, colleges, hospitals, government buildings, military facilities, and other monumental commercial or institutional applications.

  • Projects requiring AW-PG90 performance, a 3.25" thermal-break frame, 15 psf water resistance, 135 psf structural performance, and glazing up to 1" thick.

  • Historic-review projects requiring clean sightlines, coordinated frame profiles, exterior-applied grids, muntins, finish matching, and project-specific opening details.

  • Openings where the applied historic grid or muntin system should permit future reglazing without removing or replacing the grid.

  • Commercial project-out openings requiring inside- or outside-set glazing, removable screens, multiple hardware packages, perimeter accessories, finish options, and customization.

Choosing a Historic Project-Out, Casement, or Fixed Window

You are viewing the Series 6300 outward-opening projected window. It is not the same as the side-hinged Series 6400 casement. Review the related Boyd systems below when the project requires a matching fixed opening, side-hinged historic casement operation, 39mm thermal-strut construction, a deeper contemporary frame, or a shallower projected-window system.

SeriesReview This Configuration For
Series 6200 FixedMatching non-operable historic-replica openings requiring extremely narrow sightlines, a 3.25" thermal-break frame, 1" glazing, and AW-PG100 fixed-window performance.
Series 6400 Casement Project-OutSide-hinged historic project-out casement operation requiring AW-PG100 performance, a 3.25" frame, and inside- or outside-set glazing up to 1".
Series 3250XTP-G Project-OutHistoric-replica thermal-strut projected operation requiring a 39mm thermal strut, exterior snap-in muntins, AW-PG80 performance, and glazing up to 1.75".
Series 4300 Project-OutContemporary project-out applications requiring a deeper 4" thermal-break frame, AW-PG100 performance, and glazing up to 1.5".
Series 2300 Project-OutVersatile project-out applications requiring a shallower 2.375" thermal-break frame, AW-PG80 performance, and glazing up to 1.5".

Series 6300 Project-Out Window Advantages

  • Clean sightlines reflect current architectural styles while supporting a classic historic or steel-window-inspired appearance.

  • Modern commercial-window performance and historic configuration options support restoration, adaptive-reuse, and monumental projects.

  • AW-PG90 performance with 15 psf water resistance and 135 psf structural performance.

  • A 3.25" thermally broken main frame accommodates inside- or outside-set glazing up to 1" thick.

  • Dual corner-key construction supports demanding commercial and institutional applications.

  • Exterior-applied historic grids and muntin systems permit reglazing without removing or replacing the applied grid.

  • Stainless-steel four-bar friction hinges can be coordinated with lever-and-cam, custodial, telescoping push-bar, or rotary operating hardware.

  • Two rows of TPE weatherstripping at all sash members support dependable air and water performance.

  • True divided-lite, interior roll-form, and applied historical or simulated muntins support varied divided-lite designs.

  • Tight-fitting removable screens can include wickets where hardware access requires them.

  • Panning, receptors, subsills, mullions, trims, finishes, and project-specific customization support complex restoration and new-construction conditions.

Common Series 6300 Project-Out Coordination Items

  • Projected-out operation: Confirm that the documents require an outward-opening projected window rather than a side-hinged project-out casement. Coordinate hinge location, opening angle, operator package, hardware reach, operating force, user access, and ventilation strategy.

  • Exterior clearance: Review the outward projection path against walkways, railings, sunshades, screens, louvers, adjacent walls, security conditions, maintenance access, and other exterior obstructions.

  • Historic review: Coordinate existing-window profiles, sightlines, sash proportions, exterior-applied grid pattern, muntin shape and dimensions, finish, panning, perimeter conditions, and reviewing-authority comments.

  • Grid and reglazing relationship: Confirm whether true divided lites, interior muntins, or an exterior-applied grid system is required and preserve the intended ability to reglaze without removing the applied grid.

  • Glazing-set direction: Confirm inside- or outside-set glazing, complete glass makeup, overall thickness, safety glazing, coatings, spacers, glazing access, and published thermal requirements.

  • Hardware and screens: Select the appropriate lever-and-cam, custodial, telescoping push-bar, or rotary hardware package and coordinate friction hinges, screens, wickets, accessibility, security, cleaning, and maintenance requirements.

  • Member thickness: The live product copy and current guide specification list different aluminum wall values. Confirm the governing drawings, certified test information, approved specification, and current product documentation before submittal or release.

  • Openings and accessories: Verify field dimensions, rough openings, substrates, anchors, panning, receptors, subsills, mullions, trims, sealants, drainage, finishes, and surrounding construction before release.
