Series 2300 Aluminum Project-Out Windows

Boyd's Series 2300 Project-Out is a versatile commercial aluminum projected window with thermally broken construction and a compact 2.375" main frame depth. Its outward-projecting operation, safe and sleek appearance, and reliable performance make the Series 2300 an excellent choice for schools, universities, government offices, hospitals, military buildings, coastal projects, and other demanding commercial applications.

Tested to AW-PG80, the Series 2300 Project-Out combines 15 psf water resistance, 120 psf structural performance, glazing up to 1.5" thick, stainless-steel four-bar friction hinges, and four operating-hardware packages. True divided-lite, interior, and historical muntins, blinds or dual glazing, removable screens, coordinated perimeter accessories, finish selections, and custom options support contemporary architecture, restoration, renovation, and new construction. Selected impact-related and blast-resistant configurations are available where the exact glazing, opening size, anchorage, installation method, project criteria, and current supporting documentation match the requirement. A separate Series 2300 NSL Project-Out is available when narrow sightlines are required.

When to Use the Series 2300 Project-Out Window

• Commercial openings requiring outward-projecting operation rather than an inward-projecting vent or side-hinged casement.

• Schools, universities, government offices, hospitals, military buildings, and other commercial or institutional applications.

• Projects requiring AW-PG80 performance, a compact 2.375" thermal-break frame, 15 psf water resistance, 120 psf structural performance, and glazing up to 1.5" thick.

• Coastal-condition projects where the selected Series 2300 configuration, glazing, size, anchorage, finish, corrosion exposure, and installation conditions meet the project requirements.

• Selected impact-related projects where the exact test or approval path and supporting documentation are confirmed for the proposed Series 2300 Project-Out configuration.

• Blast-mitigation projects where the required protection level, threat criteria, glazing, opening size, anchorage, installation condition, and current Series 2300 blast documentation align.

• Openings requiring true, interior, or historical muntins, blinds or dual glazing, removable screens, multiple hardware packages, perimeter accessories, finish options, and customization.

Choosing a Boyd Project-Out Window

You are viewing the standard Series 2300 outward-opening projected window. It is not a side-hinged casement, and its impact and blast capabilities are configuration-specific. Review the related Boyd systems below when the project requires narrow sightlines, inward projection, a deeper frame, 39mm thermal-strut construction, side-hinged casement operation, or an associated fixed window.

Series 2300 Project-Out Window Advantages

• Versatile, thermally broken projected-window design for contemporary architecture, coastal projects, renovation, restoration, and commercial new construction.

• Safe, sleek outward-projecting configuration for schools, universities, government offices, hospitals, military buildings, and other institutional applications.

• AW-PG80 performance with 15 psf water resistance and 120 psf structural performance.

• A compact 2.375" frame accommodates glazing up to 1.5" thick.

• Stainless-steel four-bar friction hinges can be coordinated with lever-and-cam, custodial, telescoping push-bar, or gear-type 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 contemporary, traditional, and restoration designs.

• Applied muntin systems can permit replacement glazing without removing or replacing the applied muntins.

• Blinds or dual glazing and tight-fitting removable screens expand project flexibility.

• Panning, receptors, subsills, mullions, trims, nailing fins, finishes, and custom options support varied opening and installation conditions.

• Published CRF 55 and U-value 0.51 provide current thermal-performance references for the standard product configuration.

• Selected impact-related and blast-resistant configurations are available, with final applicability tied to the exact assembly and current supporting documentation.

Common Series 2300 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, operating-hardware package, hardware reach, opening 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.

• Standard or narrow sightlines: Confirm whether the project requires the standard Series 2300 Project-Out or the Series 2300 NSL Project-Out before finalizing elevations, exposed frame dimensions, details, fixed-window coordination, and performance requirements.

• Coastal conditions: Coordinate design pressures, water resistance, corrosion exposure, finish, adjacent metals, drainage, flashing, sealants, anchors, substrates, and installation conditions. Coastal suitability, impact resistance, and blast resistance are separate requirements.

• Impact requirements: The current Series 2300 Project-Out product table lists impact capability, but the current Boyd Florida Product Approval summary does not list a Series 2300 approval. Confirm the exact test or approval path, impact classification, design pressures, glazing, opening-size limits, anchors, substrates, installation method, and authority-having-jurisdiction requirements before specifying the configuration.

• Blast requirements: Provide the required protection level, threat criteria, glazing, opening size, anchorage, substrate, receptor, mullion, installation condition, and current documentation requirements. Series 2300 blast availability is configuration-specific.

• Glazing and thermal performance: Confirm complete glass makeup, overall thickness, safety glazing, glazing access, blinds or dual glazing, coatings, spacers, and required CRF or U-value.

• Muntins and appearance: Coordinate true divided-lite, interior roll-form, or applied historical muntins, grid pattern, lite divisions, profile, attachment method, finish, and reglazing requirements.

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

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

What to Send Boyd for a Series 2300 Review

Send as much of the following project information as available:

• Project name, location, building type, bid date, construction schedule, architectural drawings, elevations, window schedules, specifications, and opening sizes.

• Required coastal-condition criteria, design pressures, water resistance, corrosion exposure, finish, glazing, anchors, substrates, and installation conditions.

• Glass makeup, overall thickness, coatings, spacers, safety glazing, blinds or dual glazing, muntin construction, grid pattern, and required CRF or U-value.

• For impact-related projects, provide the required test or approval path, impact classification, design pressures, opening sizes, glazing, anchors, substrates, installation conditions, and jurisdictional requirements.

• For blast projects, provide threat criteria, protection level, opening sizes, glazing, anchors, substrates, receptors, mullions, installation conditions, and required documentation.

• Required AW-PG80, air, water, structural, thermal, forced-entry, impact, blast, security, energy-code, and jurisdictional criteria.
