Fiberglass Windows

Extreme durability meets modern good looks. Fiberglass is one of the strongest, most stable window frame materials available today.

Why Fiberglass

Why Choose Fiberglass Windows?

Fiberglass frames are made from glass fibers and resin, combining exceptional strength with remarkable stability. Because fiberglass expands and contracts at nearly the same rate as glass, the frame and glass move together, so seals stay tight and airtight for decades.

Fiberglass won't rot, warp or corrode, and it holds up through hot summers and freezing winters. Its insulating performance rivals wood without the upkeep, and many frames can be foam-filled for even better efficiency.

Extreme durability

Won't warp, crack, peel or corrode, even in harsh conditions.

Dimensional stability

Moves with the glass through temperature swings, so seals stay intact.

Weather-proof

Shrugs off moisture, UV and temperature extremes.

Low maintenance

The finish resists fading, and an occasional cleaning is all it needs.

Fiberglass Technology & Features

Pultruded frames

Glass fibers are pulled through resin and heated dies, lining them up lengthwise for a frame that's strong and rigid yet lightweight and easy to operate.

Moves with the glass

Fiberglass expands and contracts almost exactly like glass, so there's far less stress on seals than with vinyl or aluminum. That means fewer seal failures, drafts and leaks over time.

Foam-filled insulation

Hollow frame chambers can be filled with insulating foam for exceptional energy performance, a stiffer frame and a quieter home.

Won't rot or corrode

The same tough material used in boat hulls. No metal to rust, no wood to rot and no vinyl to break down in the sun.

Durable, paintable finish

Factory finishes are built for outdoor exposure and resist fading. Unlike vinyl, fiberglass can be repainted later if you want a new color.

Slim frames, more glass

Its strength allows narrower frames than vinyl or wood, giving you more glass, better views and more natural light.

Perfect For

Big temperature swings

Holds its shape and seals from hot summer days to freezing winter nights.

Wet winters and full sun

Moisture and UV won't break it down, so it's ideal for exposed walls.

Contemporary design

Narrow profiles and clean lines with plenty of glass.

Long-term investment

A higher upfront cost, but a frame built to last for decades.
