A Show-Stopping Design Feature
Clayton Park Models Debuts the Kinlock with an ActivWall Gas Strut Window
When a home is less than 400 square feet, every design decision matters. The right feature doesn’t just enhance the space; it transforms how the entire home feels.
That was exactly the case when Clayton Park Models incorporated an ActivWall Gas Strut Window into their Kinlock park model home design.
The Kinlock was unveiled at the Outdoor Hospitality Conference & Expo in fall 2025, where it immediately captured attention from attendees across the outdoor hospitality industry.
And according to Clayton’s team, the 72″ x 48″ ActivWall window played a major role in that reaction.
“The window made that whole house! We had a TON of great reactions from the show.”
Park model homes are designed to deliver the comfort and style of a full-size home in a compact footprint. Clayton Park Models builds these homes with thoughtfully curated interiors and durable construction, creating a high-end experience for homeowners, resorts, and vacation rental communities.
Within a home where space efficiency is essential, the ActivWall Gas Strut Window adds a powerful design element. When open, it creates an inviting pass-through that’s perfect for entertaining, serving food and drinks, or simply enjoying fresh air and natural views.
In a park model setting, whether at a lake resort, mountain campground, or luxury tiny home community, that kind of flexibility can make a big impression. The smooth lift makes it easy to open, while the wide opening transforms the space into an indoor-outdoor gathering area in seconds. The result is a home that feels more expansive and interactive than its compact footprint might suggest.
For Clayton Park Models, the show’s response confirmed what they had envisioned from the beginning: a single architectural feature can redefine how a small home lives. And in the Kinlock, the ActivWall Gas Strut Window does exactly that.
