Framing Systems
Commercial-Grade Framing Systems.
Fabricated locally in our workshop.
Strong weather and structural performance.
Designed for commercial and architectural projects.
Premium Glazing Systems for Residential & Commercial Builds.
The right framing system influences the appearance, strength, weather performance and energy efficiency of the entire glazed façade.
MJ Architectural Windows & Doors fabricates, supplies and installs premium aluminium framing for commercial buildings, residential developments and architecturally designed homes throughout Adelaide and surrounding regions.
Our CentreGLAZE™, FrontGLAZE™ and FaceLINE™ ranges provide different glazing positions, framing depths and performance options. This allows our team to recommend a system based on the architecture, opening dimensions, glass, site exposure and intended use of the building.

CentreGLAZE™
CentreGLAZE™ positions the glass closer to the centre of the aluminium profile, creating balanced frame depth and similar sightlines on both sides of the glazing.
Its extensive range of mullions, transoms, doors, windows and glazing options makes it a versatile choice for general commercial and architectural applications.
FrontGLAZE™
FrontGLAZE™ positions the glass towards the exterior face of the framing, reducing the amount of aluminium projecting beyond the external glass line.
This glass-forward configuration creates a clean façade while retaining the structural options and framing depth required for demanding commercial applications.
FaceLINE™
FaceLINE™ is designed to create a refined external glazing line while coordinating with compatible FrontGLAZE™ framing and SlideMASTER™ sliding systems.
The glass sits close to the exterior face, reducing projecting transom ledges and helping fixed glazing and opening modules form a more integrated façade.
Frequently Asked Questions.
What is a commercial aluminium framing system?
A commercial aluminium framing system supports fixed glass, doors and opening windows across shopfronts, façades, entrances and other glazed sections of a building.
Commercial framing generally offers greater depth, strength and configuration flexibility than standard residential window framing.
What commercial framing systems does MJ Architectural offer?
MJ Architectural fabricates CentreGLAZE™, FrontGLAZE™ and FaceLINE™ framing. The broader range includes single-glazed, double-glazed, wide-pocket, acoustic and thermally broken options.
What is the difference between CentreGLAZE™, FrontGLAZE™ and FaceLINE™?
CentreGLAZE™ positions the glass closer to the centre of the frame, creating balanced sightlines.
FrontGLAZE™ positions the glass nearer the exterior face for a cleaner external appearance and is available across a broad selection of high-performance configurations.
FaceLINE™ also creates minimal external projection but is specifically designed to coordinate with corresponding FrontGLAZE™ and compatible SlideMASTER™ systems.
Which framing system is best for a shopfront?
CentreGLAZE™, FrontGLAZE™ and FaceLINE™ can all suit shopfront applications.
The best option depends on the preferred glazing line, opening dimensions, required doors, glass, weather exposure and architectural design.
Can commercial framing be used in residential projects?
Yes. Commercial framing can suit premium homes and residential developments requiring larger glazed areas, stronger profiles or more detailed architectural configurations.
Can commercial framing be double glazed?
Yes. Double-glazed CentreGLAZE™ and FrontGLAZE™ systems are available across different framing depths. The appropriate system depends on the insulating glass unit, opening size and required performance.
Do you offer thermally broken commercial framing?
Yes. ThermalHEART™ CentreGLAZE™ and FrontGLAZE™ systems are available for projects requiring improved thermal performance.
Are acoustic framing systems available?
Yes. Selected framing systems can accommodate acoustic glass, including SoundOUT™ solutions for more demanding noise environments.
Can doors and opening windows be incorporated?
Yes. Compatible sliding, hinged and pivot doors can be integrated with selected framing systems, along with awning, casement, sliding and double-hung windows.
