Minnesota State University Moorhead required thorough third-party field testing for the curtainwall installation.
Third-party testing can lead to improved outcomes for several reasons:
- Objectivity: Provides an unbiased assessment of materials and systems
- Expertise: Offers specialized knowledge and experience in testing processes
- Quality Assurance: Ensures that installations meet safety and quality standards
- Credibility: Enhances the reliability of results for stakeholders
- Compliance: Helps adhere to industry regulations and building codes
- Risk Mitigation: Identifies potential issues early to reduce risks
We incorporated a variety of advanced building systems:
- Wausau 6250 and 10250 Superwall: Installed according to Minnesota State specifications, these high-performance curtainwall systems deliver superior energy efficiency.
- Tubecraft Monumental Doors: Robust and aesthetically designed doors for large-scale entrances, enhancing the building's architectural character.
- Interior Glass Handrail by CRL: A sleek, contemporary handrail system that combines safety with modern design.
- Interior Storefronts in the Lobby: Custom glass storefronts that create a bright, open space within the lobby.
- Interior Wilson Partition Office Framing with Glass and Wood Doors by GC: A sophisticated office partition system integrating glass and wood doors for a functional and elegant layout.
- Auto Operators and Bollards by Fargo Glass: Automatic door operators and bollards installed for increased accessibility and safety.
- Door Hardware by Twin Cities Hardware (TCH): High-quality door hardware is provided to ensure durability and reliability throughout the building.
- Interior Storefronts in the Lobby: Custom glass storefronts that create a bright, open space within the lobby.
- Interior Wilson Partition Office Framing with Glass and Wood Doors by GC: A sophisticated office partition system integrating glass and wood doors for a functional and elegant layout.
- Auto Operators and Bollards by Fargo Glass: Automatic door operators and bollards installed for increased accessibility and safety.
- Door Hardware by Twin Cities Hardware (TCH): High-quality door hardware is provided to ensure durability and reliability throughout the building.

Most building professionals know that air leakage is one of the biggest performance failures in commercial buildings. What is less understood is this: Air leakage doesn't move in only one direction. It can move inward (infiltration) or outward (exfiltration) — and each direction carries its own set of energy, comfort, and moisture-control consequences. Even worse, rolling doors have historically been among the weakest points of the building envelope.
Daylighting, Durability & Performance: Why the Thief River Falls Regional Airport Chose Kalwall
We truly enjoyed working with HCM Architects (Minneapolis), TKDA Architects (Bloomington), Knutson Construction (Minneapolis), and McGough (St. Paul), who brought four new Xcel Energy service facilities — in Chanhassen, Onalaska (WI), St. Cloud, and St. Paul–Maplewood. We helped bring their design visions to life with Kalwall’s advanced translucent daylighting systems, which elevate energy efficiency, occupant comfort, and thermal performance.

2025 Rethos Historic Rehabilitation Award Winner | Landmark Tower Apartments (St. Paul) Conversion
We were pleased to collaborate with Mohagen Hansen Architecture (Wayzata, MN) and Gardner Builders (Minneapolis) to bring their design vision for Agralite Electric Cooperative’s new 63,000-square-foot headquarters in Benson, MN, to life—featuring the innovative use of Kalwall® daylighting systems in both the office space and the warehouse.
Carleton College (Northfield, MN) is recognized for its rigorous academics, intimate class sizes averaging just 14 students, and a strong sense of community. We were proud to bring our extensive expertise in educational glass and glazing projects to the college’s Class of 1974 Building, made possible through the generosity of the Class of 1974 alumni.
Boston Scientific's Maple Grove Expansion – Supported by W. L. Hall Company Solutions
When Hornig Companies set out to build their new headquarters in St. Louis Park, Tanek Architects (Minneapolis) and Gardner Builders (Minneapolis) designed a conference room that could do it all—flexibility, acoustics, and aesthetics.
Think of the McKEON AirShield™ AL3014 as more than just a door—it’s a precision-engineered barrier designed to keep comfort in and unwanted air out. This high-performance overhead coiling system is built for environments where air matters most: from busy industrial facilities to sensitive institutional spaces. ๆ๐ฌ๏ธ Superior Air Control – Keeps interior climates stable by minimizing air infiltration and exfiltration ๐ก Energy Efficiency – Helps cut heating and cooling costs while meeting today’s strict energy standards ๐ Durability You Can Trust – Engineered to perform reliably in the toughest conditions The result? Protected interiors, better comfort, and a door system that works as hard as you do.
