Providing safety, structure, privacy, noise protection, and a polished aesthetic for wind-prone outdoor spaces, Synergi's windscreen systems can be customized and adapted to the specific needs of virtually any project or setting.

Windscreen Systems

As interest in functional, comfortable, and visually appealing outdoor spaces continues to rise, so too does demand for commercial glass windscreen systems. Providing safety, structure, privacy, noise protection, and a polished aesthetic for wind-prone outdoor spaces, windscreen systems can be customized and adapted to the specific needs of virtually any project or setting, taking into account terrain, building level, wind loads, line of sight, safety, and other environmental and performance factors. Keeping building codes, proper installation, and material selection in mind is critical for designing efficient windscreens that will withstand the test of time and the environment.

Our high-quality, customizable windscreen solutions offer an abundance of options that are not only code compliant, but also aesthetically designed to complement and elevate the look and experience of any outdoor space.

Early Integration

Builders often categorize windscreens as simply “large guardrail” and ignore it until late in the buyout phase, missing key engineering and coordination time. Overlooking a windscreen’s unique design and engineering challenges caused by increased loads and structural requirements can lead to costly change orders and project disruption.

The integration of a windscreen system into a building’s design intent should be prioritized in the early stages to engineer wind load optimization into the design to minimize the uplift on the outdoor space, as well as to facilitate coordination with adjacent pavers, waterproofing, curtainwall systems, and integrated lightning protection.

Early Planning for Wind & Thermal Stress

Get in touch

Synergi is prepared to discuss budgets, time constraints, and work in any variety of installation environments. Our in-house team of engineers ensures an efficient installation process backed by experts. We can even arrange a 3D modeling and design process before engineering to ensure that you get exactly what you envisioned.

Early incorporation of windscreen planning can increase the overall functionality of windscreen systems by incorporating key design elements.
