Series 810 Historic-Replica Single-Hung Windows

The Boyd Series 810 is a thermally broken commercial aluminum single-hung window designed for historic-replica projects and demanding institutional applications. Its traditional fixed-upper-sash and operating-lower-sash configuration makes the Series 810 a strong choice for hospitals, government offices, military buildings, universities, public schools, and other commercial projects requiring reliable ventilation with a classic hung-window appearance.

Tested to H-HC50, the Series 810 features a 4" main frame, double-weatherstripped sash construction, heavy-duty spiral or Ultra-Lift balances, and a tamper-resistant custodial-key-operated tilt mechanism that allows interior access for cleaning. The Series 810 can also be configured with an integral Water Management Fin System and optional Architectural Window (AW) AAMA-rated performance. Interior and applied muntin options, screens, coordinated perimeter accessories, finish selections, and project-specific customization support historic-replica, renovation, and new-construction requirements.

When to Use the Series 810 Single-Hung Window

• Historic-replica, renovation, or institutional projects requiring a traditional commercial aluminum single-hung window.

• Hospitals, government offices, military buildings, universities, public schools, and other demanding commercial applications.

• Projects requiring H-HC50 performance, a 4" thermal-break frame, 12.11 psf water resistance, and glazing up to 1" thick.

• Openings requiring custodial-key-controlled tilt access, heavy-duty balances, interior cleaning, and tamper-resistant operation.

• Hospital or institutional openings that benefit from a hospital-sill configuration for limited ventilation without a daylight opening at the sill.

• Projects requiring interior or applied muntins, screens, an integral Water Management Fin System, optional AW-rated performance, perimeter accessories, finish options, and customization.

Choosing a Boyd Single-Hung, Double-Hung, or Fixed Window

You are viewing the Series 810 historic-replica single-hung window. Review the related Boyd systems below when the project requires higher single-hung performance, a different performance class, double-hung operation, a shallower frame, or matching fixed openings.

Series 810 Single-Hung Window Advantages

• Historic-replica single-hung design for demanding commercial and institutional applications.

• H-HC50 performance with 12.11 psf water resistance and 75.19 psf structural performance.

• A 4" thermal-break frame and continuous perimeter marine glazing accommodate insulated glass up to 1" thick.

• Tamper-resistant, custodial-key-operated tilt mechanisms provide controlled interior access for cleaning.

• Heavy-duty spiral or Ultra-Lift Class 5 balances support reliable lower-sash operation.

• Double weatherstripping at critical sash and frame interfaces supports dependable air and water performance.

• Hospital-sill, Water Management Fin System, screen, muntin, and optional AW-rated configurations expand project flexibility.

• Panning, receptors, subsills, mullions, trims, nailing fins, leg extenders, finishes, and customization options support complex opening conditions.

Common Series 810 Coordination Items

• Historic-replica requirements: Coordinate sightlines, sash proportions, meeting-rail location, muntin pattern, profile, finish, perimeter conditions, and reviewing-authority comments.

• Single-hung operation: Confirm the fixed upper sash, operating lower sash, lift and lock locations, operating force, balance selection, and any opening-control requirements.

• Custodial tilt access: Coordinate key control, authorized-user access, interior cleaning clearances, furnishings, shades, security, and maintenance procedures.

• Hospital sill: Confirm whether the project requires the limited-opening hospital-sill configuration, the intended ventilation path, operating restrictions, and institutional safety requirements.

• Egress and clear opening: Where emergency escape or rescue requirements apply, provide the required net clear opening, minimum clear dimensions, sill height, unit size, and authority-having-jurisdiction comments.

• Glazing and muntins: Confirm insulated-glass makeup, overall thickness, safety glazing, marine-glazing compatibility, muntin type, grid pattern, finish, coatings, spacers, and replacement access.

• Water management and optional AW performance: Confirm exposure, design pressures, drainage, sill conditions, perimeter flashing and sealants, Water Management Fin System requirements, and the applicable AW-rated configuration and documentation.

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