About Windows

The frame matters as much as the glass

A window is a frame material, a glass package, and a way of opening — and each of the three changes how the window performs, how long it lasts, and what it costs to run. Knowing the difference makes the rest of the decision straightforward.

Frame Materials

Vinyl

The most widely specified frame material, offering strong thermal performance and low maintenance at an accessible price point, in a range of factory-applied colors.

Fiberglass

A rigid, dimensionally stable material that expands and contracts very little with temperature, allowing slim sightlines and a long service life.

Aluminum

A traditional cabinet structure with a face frame at the front of the box, offering a substantial look and a wide range of door styles.

Wood & Clad

Natural wood interiors paired with a protective exterior cladding, chosen where the interior finish of the window matters as much as its performance. (Confirm you carry this — remove if not.)

What to Consider

Energy Performance

California's Title 24 requirements set minimum efficiency standards for replacement windows. U-factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient are the two numbers that matter, and the right combination depends on which direction your windows face.

Operation

Sliding, single-hung, casement, awning, or fixed — how a window opens affects ventilation, cleaning access, egress compliance in bedrooms, and how much of the view is interrupted by frame.

Noise & Comfort

Glass thickness, air gaps, and laminated options all reduce sound transmission — worth considering for homes near a busy road or under a flight path.

Retrofit or Full-Frame

A retrofit installs a new window into the existing frame; a full-frame replacement removes everything back to the opening. Which suits your home depends on the condition of the existing frames, and it's the largest single factor in the cost.

Frame materials, glass packages, performance ratings, and available options vary by brand and collection.

Style & Performance

Chosen for the room they're in

Beyond the frame material, the style, color, and glass package all shape how a window looks from the street, how much light it brings in, and how the room feels through a summer afternoon.

Window Styles

How it opens

Sliding, single-hung, casement, awning, picture, bay and bow — each suits a different room, opening size, and ventilation need, and the choice changes the character of the elevation as much as the interior.

Frame & Finishes

Inside and out

Frame colors and finishes in whites, warm neutrals, bronzes, and blacks — with the option to specify a different interior and exterior color so the window suits both the room and the facade.

Glass & Performance

The part you don't see

Low-E coatings, dual and triple glazing, argon fill, laminated and tempered options — the glass package is where most of a window's efficiency, comfort, and noise reduction is decided.
