Global Architectural Panels
Specializing in Custom Architectural Metal Panel Systems
Architects provide the vision, the inspiration, the dynamics. It’s frequently the charge of the actual producer to make the design durable, functional and a reality. This is where the design team at Global Architectural Panels enters the picture. The job of preparing shop drawings, coordinating with other trades, the method of production, and the installation process all carefully fitted together work to assure satisfaction and pride in a job well done.

The process from the beginning at Global follows a typical route. When the architect’s drawings of a project arrive, the initial stage is the preparation of shop drawings. This is where all of the engineering begins, and the coordination with other trades is considered. Oftentimes there is a need for more explicit detail over and above what the architect has envisioned. There may be a need for more information. The design department works carefully during this important process. The finishing stages in design call for even more detailing – including isometric drawings to show how the final product is going to look.

Following the completion of the shop drawings, the engineers and the project managers will review the system with the general contractor, and the architect. Finishes and systems are approved, and miscellaneous details reviewed with care. Communication with all involved is critical in all projects.
