Hogon Wholesole Exponds Wirh New Metcrl Producrs Division

The recent r'varehouse expansion announced by Hogan Wholesale Building Nfaterials Co. in Oakland has been follou'ed by the establishment of a NIetal Products division, according to Bob Hogan, general manager of the firm. The nerv division, featuring Almetco pre-glazed aluminum casements and Stanley pre-glazed jalousies, sliding sash and a'rvning windows, is located on Embarcadero St., near the Hogan Wholesale headquarters at 700 Sixth Ave.

Heading up llogan's new pre-glazed aluminum window operation is Al Allison, rvho has had over 1O years' experience in the aluminum casement and awning window business. Roy Andriesse rvill assist Allison in running the Metal Products division and, in addition, the Stanley building specialties representative, Will Jackson, will work closely rvith the Hogan firm in promoting the use of Stanley window products with architects and in helping Northern Calilornia lumber dealers with their architectural requirements.

The Almetco alun-rinum casement is a product of Aluminum Metals Company. The Staniey jalousie, sliding sash and arvning u'indows are manufactured by Stanley Building Specialties-a division of the Stanley Works, one of the nation's oldest and largest manufacturers of hinges and woodworking tools. Hogan Wholesale is Northern Cali.fornia distributor for the Stanley line.

All products of the Hogan Metal Products division are shop-glazed at the Hogan plant and alttminum glazing beads installed. The complete unit is then shipped to the lumber dealer, ready for installation c,'n the job.

Both Hogan and Allison note that for years practically every lumber dealer has profitably merchandised doublehung 'ivindows; horvever, in recent )'ears, dealers everywhere have been losing aluminum casement windou' installations to the glass houses because rnost of these u'indow units require on-the-job glaz\ng.

The aluminum pre-glazed window unit is the ansrn'er to this problem, Hogan and Allison feel, because dealers may norv service any contractor's windou' requirements u'ith Almetco or Stanley units, ready for installation and priced to compete with any job-glazed rvindorv installation.

In addition to some 200 different styles and standard sizes offered in the four types of pre-glazed aluminurn windou's, Hogan Wholesale's N{etal Products division is also prepared to supply custom sizes upon re<luest.
