C/S Grilles help Alaska’s Atwood Parking facility make a dramatic statement.

The bold 8” deep demi-fin blades of C/S’ Model VAC 8000vision barrier are spaced differently on different sectionsof the garage for added free area and ventilation.

For the new Linny Pacillo Parking Garage in downtown Anchorage, Alaska, Kpb

Architects needed to design a skin for the structure that would effectively

screen parked cars and headlight glare from the street below. They were

also looking for a product that would provide adequate ventilation to

the structure’s interior. Kpb and Davis Constructors worked closely

with Construction Specialties Custom Grille Team to engineer

and test multiple grille design options that would mitigate

potential ice and snow buildup on the parking garage’s

exterior face. The result is a unique architectural design

that is highly effective for a severe northern climate.

For over 40 years C/S has been the leader in Architectural Grilles.Our grilles serve a multitude offunctions. They generally fit intoone of the six categories below:
