Choose from our comprehensive range of anodized and paint finishes to match your project's aesthetic and performance requirements.
Durable, corrosion-resistant finishes that enhance the natural properties of aluminum.
Aluminum storefront systems are the framing that holds glass at a building's ground-floor entrance — the vertical and horizontal mullions, door frames, and glazing stops that make up a commercial storefront. Elev8 distributes storefront systems built on YKK AP product lines, including thermal and non-thermal options, so specifiers and fabricators can match the right system to the project's performance requirements.
Every storefront system Elev8 supplies can be CNC-fabricated in-house to project-specific dimensions and hardware requirements, reducing field labor for the glazing contractor. Architects, general contractors, and glazing subcontractors across South Jersey, Greater Philadelphia, and the Delaware Valley specify Elev8's storefront systems for new construction and renovation projects. Request a quote. Elev8's in-house aluminum fabrication team can cut and finish any storefront system to your project's exact dimensions.
Storefront systems are typically ground-floor, non-load-bearing entrance systems installed within a single opening, usually spanning one to two stories. Curtain wall systems are exterior envelope systems that span multiple floors, attaching to a building's structural frame at each floor line and engineered for greater wind load, thermal movement, and water infiltration performance on mid-rise and taller construction.

Common questions about YKK AP aluminum storefront systems and services
Yes. Elev8 is an authorized YKK AP dealer, supplying YKK AP storefront, curtain wall, and entrance systems including the YES 45FS, YES 45FI, and YES 45TU. We serve South Jersey, Greater Philadelphia, and the Delaware Valley across NJ, PA, DE, and NY with local inventory and CNC fabrication.
Elev8 is an authorized YKK AP dealer, offering a full range of YKK AP aluminum storefront, curtain wall, and door systems, including the YES 45FS, YES 45FI, and YES 45TU. Additional YKK AP systems may be available upon request.
Non-thermal systems are constructed from a single, continuous piece of aluminum with no thermal break. Thermal systems include a polyamide thermal break that separates the interior and exterior aluminum profiles, reducing heat transfer between inside and outside.
Our stocked anodized finishes include black, dark bronze, clear, and white. Additional anodized finishes, such as champagne and medium bronze, are available upon request.
Yes. In order to meet project specific hardware and fabrication requirements, Elev8 uses 3 fully automated CNC machines to prep for the necessary hardware and accessories. Our CNC capabilities, along with our automated saw, help improve accuracy, reduce field labor, and support faster, more efficient installations.
Lead times for YKK AP aluminum systems vary based on system type, finish, fabrication requirements, and overall project scope. Standard systems and stocked finishes are more readily available, while custom configurations or fabricated orders may require additional time. For projects involving specific materials or customizations, we recommend reaching out as early as possible.
Elev8 can assist with system layout support and shop drawings based on approved project specifications. Final field measurements are typically provided by the customer/contractor to ensure accuracy and jobsite coordination. Elev8 can provide engineered, job-specific shop drawings for an additional fee.
Aluminum storefront systems are the framing — mullions, door frames, and glazing stops — that hold glass at a building's ground-floor commercial entrance. Elev8 distributes storefront systems built on YKK AP product lines, in thermal and non-thermal configurations, fabricated to project-specific dimensions and hardware requirements.
A curtain wall system is a non-structural aluminum-and-glass exterior wall that hangs from a building's structural frame rather than bearing its weight, spanning multiple floors. Unlike ground-floor storefront systems, curtain wall is engineered for greater wind load and water infiltration performance on mid-rise and taller construction.
