Alaska Airlines Center featuring Wood Panel Reveal
Completion Date: 2014
About the Project:
The Alaska Airlines Center home for the sports teams of the University of Alaska in Anchorage. The $109 million project also serves as a venue for concerts and other events. The state-of-the-art venue boasts a 5,000-seat athletic arena, medicine suite, indoor jogging track, a gymnastics training facility, and a competition gym. It will also house a training and strength conditioning facility for athletes. Alaska Airlines partnered with UAA in funding the project and creating a scholarship for student-athletes of the university. Their partnership enables UAA to expand their sports teams and provides a central community center for the area.
The millwork company for the project, J.R. Heritage, came to Flannery with the need for trims fitted for a thicker millwork panel. Flannery modified our Wood Panel Trims to accommodate the different size of panel. At the request of J.R. Heritage we provided our trims in a longer length (12’-13’) as well to accommodate the high walls of the arena and to eliminate butt joints.
Flannery supplied 6,700 linear feet of our Wood Panel Reveal (WPR), 6,500 linear feet of our Wood Panel J-Mold (WPJ), and 3 linear feet of Wood Panel Outside Corners (WPOC). Our Wood Panel Trims can be seen in the stadium’s box office as well as on the walls surrounding the gymnasium. The designer chose a clear anodized finish for our trims which accentuated the light wood panels perfectly and really enabled them to stand out.

More information about our Wood Panel Outside Corner trim:
Flannery’s Wood Panel Outside Corner is an outside corner trim for millwork panels that meet at a 90º outside corner. The Wood Panel Outside Corner creates a sharp corner edge to the outside corner joint. The Wood Panel Outside Corner comes with a face flange that allows the installer to slide the wood paneling in behind the flange and cover the unfinished edge of the panel.
More information about our Wood Panel Reveal:
Flannery’s Wood Panel Reveal is a trim for millwork panels that creates an aesthetic reveal between two millwork panels. The Wood Panel Reveal comes with a 3/8” face flange, which allows the installer to slide the wood paneling in behind the flange and cover the unfinished edge of the panel.
