Hybrid Curtain Wall Systems
Unison's Hybrid Curtain Wall Systems combine wood interiors with aluminum exteriors for thermal efficiency and modern aesthetics. Designed with UBC researchers, these systems achieve 0.8 u-value compliance with European passive house standards. Customizable for commercial and residential projects, they accommodate double/triple glazing and feature removable exterior components for easy maintenance.
Bi-Folding Doors
Our bi-folding doors create seamless indoor-outdoor transitions with multi-panel configurations. Built with Eclipse hardware, they support curved tracks and oversized panels up to 80 sq. ft. The design minimizes space usage while ensuring durability in coastal and high-exposure environments through premium wood and finish selections.
Custom Wood Windows
Crafted since 1978, Unison's wood windows include casement, awning, and fixed styles with flush sightlines. Available in Accoya, Ipe, and Douglas Fir, they feature factory finishes lasting 15+ years. Custom sizes up to 25 feet in height ensure adaptability for contemporary and heritage projects requiring precise architectural integration.
Interior Millwork Packages
We provide coordinated interior millwork matching exterior wood selections, including doors, moldings, and stair components. Pre-finished and labeled for easy installation, these packages ensure material consistency across projects. Our team coordinates finishing processes to align with exterior window and door aesthetics.
Wood Finishing Solutions
Our finishing processes enhance wood durability using film-forming and penetrating treatments. From UV-resistant paints to water-repellent stains, we optimize finishes for climate conditions. Surface preparation techniques improve paint adhesion, while material modifications increase dimensional stability for long-term performance in exterior applications.
