Custom Design Deserves a Custom Process

AGT offers support, ideas and insight every step of the way. We're dedicated to ensuring your success from project start to finish with a well-tested approach:

  1. A specialized design and drafting team is assigned to each job
    • Our teams are led by professionals with an average of 14 years of experience in design and production management. On the Peabody Essex Museum project, our senior designer helped the architect calculate the extremely complex geometry needed to bring the unique structure to life — a structure that others said could not be built.
  2. Engineering services are kept in-house for continuity, fast turnaround, and all required stamps
    • Our commitment to in-house engineering is the cornerstone of our success. We believe that engineers and designers should be directly connected to the manufacturing process for a structure that goes together as planned.
  3. 3D conceptual models of the project are provided to identify issues and opportunities along the way
    1. 3-D AutoCad models are provided to you from project estimation through final design. This provides a clear understanding of the project from the inside out, and allows you to identify installation challenges even before the crew arrives on site.
  4. We help to identify the engineering requirements of your design early on, to simplify manufacturing and installation
    1. Our in-house engineering staff can help improve the structural integrity of your designs, by offering new ideas including the most cost effective way to manufacture parts, and install the project.
  5. Please be patient while our video loads.

    Our precision production video demonstrates the manufacturing process in a computer-controlled 5 axis manufacturing environment. (Please be patient while the video loads.)
    State-of-the-art production equipment is used our manufacturing process for a perfect fit every time:
    1. We've modified our CAD design software to create "Smart Parts" with tolerances of three thousands of an inch. These parts are then programmed into our German-engineered milling machines.
    2. AGT was the first to incorporate this level of precision production equipment into the manufacturing of custom skylights and curtain wall.

  6. Exclusive site and installation services are offered to "fit" glass structures to the building frame before we ever arrive on site:
    • The most critical connection on any job is where the glass structure attaches to the building. AGT has developed industry-first services to ensure that what you've designed fits the building frame seamlessly.
    • For particularly challenging jobs, we offer a 3D Total Station GPS survey of the exact building frame dimensions, which can be overlayed on our 3D skylight or curtain wall design files.

  7. Experienced project management smooths the development process from start to finish
    • Project success comes from the best engineered products, and the most experienced project managers who can ensure that production and installation goes as planned.

      AGT's project managers have an average of 14 years of experience in skylights and curtain wall projects, to bring together the multiple needs of the building owner, architect, engineer, and contractors.
