Covington:  This project was our first major new construction project.  It was completed in 2002.  There were 700 windows and 150 patio doors.  All were from our principal supplier, Milgard Manufacturing.  This was also our first of several projects for DPR Inc.

Entry and front lawn (Most windows are Milgard’s Styleline vinyl window, Patio doors are Classic series.

Garden view: After 10 years the trees are maturing.  The windows are still fine.

There are several cottages that are part of this modern Senior retirement complex. That is not my grandma.

Just north of downtown San Diego is the exclusive Pacific Beach area.  Here we installed about 75 sliding patio doors for Bartell’s Pacific Terrace Hotel.  The patio doors take full advantage of the beautiful views of the ocean.

Another DPR project we were able to be involved in was the Old Globe Theatre in Balboa Park, San Diego.

We used Jeld-Wen wood windows and French doors.  (They used to be called Pozzi, one of several companies bought by Jeld-Wen. It is now one of the largest window companies in the world)

One of our more recent additions to our portfolio is this project, Walnut Village.  It is a Senior residential property located just ½ mile from Disneyland in Anahiem.  A unique color scheme marks the main building complex.  The windows in the cottages however, (shown in the foreground below) were done in white.

 

Across the bay from Downtown San Diego is Shelter Island.  There is a famous hotel and destination resort called Humphreys by the Bay.  We were invited to install new windows and sliding patio doors in most of the hotel rooms for this beautiful property.

Here is another project in LA.  They called it the Miracle Mile project.  Located on Wilshire Blvd. about 1 or 2 miles from Downtown LA, it is luxury apartment complex with some 140 units.  There were some 3000 individual windows and 140 French doors.

An architectural feature of this project is the curved glass windows at all four corners of the building.  These had to be custom ordered after the openings were framed so that they would fit perfectly.  Templates of the base of each opening were sent to the fabrication location.  Those units had to be dual glazed.  They were a lot of work and expense, but they look great.

Here are just some of the projects we have successfully completed in the last 20 yrs.

Sunset Lofts: a luxury 150 unit apartment building in Los Angeles on the famous Sunset Blvd.  Completed in 2008 this property is a landmark in a prestigious area near downtown LA.  With over 850 window and doors it was quite a project.  Note the windows that extend from the 2^nd to the 3^rd and from the 4^th  to the 5^th floors.  They measured 6 or 8 ft wide and 16 ft. high and are comprised of 10 separate windows mulled together.

The windows between the floors had spandrel glass (silver-grey coating on the inside) so that the floor framing was not visible.  All the glass on this project was 3/16 and ¼” thick for sound absorption. The 10 window combination units weighed in at over 800 lbs.  They had to be assembled and glazed on site by our technicians. The corner windows were a challenge to install but they certainly add dimension and a classic look to this fine piece of architecture.
