When it comes to window manufacturing, no two operations are exactly alike. Whether you’re running a boutique shop specializing in custom frames or a large-scale facility churning out thousands of units a week, your finishing needs are unique. That’s why at HMFT, we’re passionate about offering Global Finishing Solutions (GFS) paint booths—because GFS makes customization easy, practical, and accessible for window manufacturers of every size.
Why Customization Matters in Window Manufacturing
Every window manufacturer faces different challenges. Maybe you’re working with oversized frames, intricate muntin designs, or a variety of materials that all require different finishing processes. Off-the-shelf solutions just don’t cut it when you need to maximize efficiency, ensure flawless finishes, and meet strict safety and environmental codes. That’s where GFS shines, offering both pre-engineered and fully custom paint booth solutions that adapt to your workflow—not the other way around.
Modular Design: Flexibility from the Ground Up
One of the standout features of GFS paint booths is their modular design. This means you can start with a standard model and expand or reconfigure it as your business grows or your needs change. Need a longer booth for larger window assemblies? Want to add extra lighting or specialized filtration? With GFS, it’s as simple as choosing the right modules and options.
- Sizes for Every Shop: GFS offers more than 500 pre-engineered models, ranging from compact bench booths for small parts to expansive open-face and enclosed booths for large frames and high-volume production.
- Easy Assembly: Pre-punched panels and nut-and-bolt construction make installation straightforward, saving you time and minimizing disruption to your operations.
- Expandable: Modular sections allow you to add depth, width, or height as your production requirements evolve.
Custom Engineered Solutions: Built for Your Unique Needs
Sometimes, your requirements go beyond what’s available in a catalogue. GFS has the resources and expertise to design and build truly custom paint booths, tailored to your exact specifications. Whether you need special airflow patterns, conveyor or monorail integration, seismic construction, or unique door configurations, GFS can deliver a solution that fits seamlessly into your production line.
- Custom Sizing: Specify the exact depth, width, and height you need for your products and workspace.
- Specialized Features: Options like multi-stage filtration, drive-thru or sliding doors, observation windows, and custom lighting layouts are all available.
- Integration Ready: GFS booths can be designed to work with your existing material handling systems, including conveyors and automated lines.

Every booth is constructed from heavy-duty, 18-gauge galvanized steel for durability and longevity. All models are designed to meet or exceed international safety and environmental codes, including OSHA, NFPA, and EPA standards.
