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:

- 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.

Longevity of Kalwall Translucent Panel Skylights: Proven Performance, Designed for Decades
Safety may not always be the flashiest topic, but in construction, it’s one of the most critical. At W. L. Hall Company, we’re excited to announce that our 2025 MOD rate is at an impressive 0.65—thanks to the unwavering focus of our Safety Team and the exceptional care and professionalism of our Ironworkers, Carpenters, and Glaziers. It’s a standout accomplishment that reflects our industry-leading commitment to jobsite safety.
Operable walls have transformed from functional dividers into aesthetic enhancers of the built environment. On this recent project, we helped the architect balance the need for space flexibility with the desire for the look of a more "permanent" solution. Glass panels with false muntins offer the best of both worlds— the look of a fixed demountable system with the flexibility of operable wall systems.
As part of Southdale Center’s $400 million luxury renovation, Simon Property Group (Indianapolis) reached out to us to help bring their bold architectural vision to life. We collaborated with W&W Glass Systems (New York) to deliver and install a stunning array of structural glass solutions that elevate the experience in the new luxury wing.

Marlite Artizan Max Defense FRP Panels | Taking Durability and Design to a Higher Level
Due to our "challenging" winter weather conditions, building maintenance professionals frequently schedule glass atrium and curtainwall repair initiatives when spring arrives. Among our current projects in this category are the 1550 Utica Avenue Tower (St. Louis Park), Glass Atrium Roof rehabilitation, and the restoration of curtainwall components at Reflections Condominiums (Bloomington).
Crowe Construction (St. Louis Park) contacted us about replacing the skylights at Artistry on 10th, a modern luxury apartment complex. The existing skylights were extremely leaky, aesthetically unappealing, had poor opacity, and failed to meet current-day structural requirements. They allowed minimal natural light to enter the space, provided little comfort or functionality, and were energy inefficient.
