Project Details

Winco Windows Delivers for the University of Kentucky

Many of the University’s academic buildings were built in the 1920s and featured wood windows.   Historic window updates on campus are always aluminum windows with a 70 percent Bone White Kynar paint finish.   The Peterson building, being built in 1949, had a more modern look and Hunt Dickson proposed an out-of-the-box idea.  “The Peterson Building is unique in that it does not hold students or classes and is a mixture of offices and maintenance facilities,” says Dickson.   “I wanted a bright wow factor but still needed a classic earth-tone finish with an industrial look appropriate to the building’s purpose.  We recommended a black anodized finish and the finished product made a huge impact.  The location of Peterson Building makes it a major focal point of the University and the new windows  provide a fresh modern look.” 

Hunt Dickson led the window selection process.  “The original operable windows were double-hung -and were unique for the era.  Winco’s operable 4500S insulated double-hung windows fit the historic look the University required, “ says Dickson.  “To meet modern-day energy requirements, we recommended an ultra-neutral Opti-gray glass with Vitro Supercool on the exterior and Solarban 60 on the number 3 surface.  

Due to the team’s decades-long relationship with the University, the custom panning system had already been developed by Winco designers.  Over the years, Winco has developed “matching” aluminum panning for the different time periods of construction.  This made ordering the windows more cost-effective and helped accelerate the timelines.
