Windoor Hardwood Doors

True to our history of collaborating with architects, we developed our exclusive Windoor in response to a repeating custom design request. The innovative design integrates a casement window or awning window sash with a stile-and-rail door. This creative fusion, designed for clean detailing at entries, permits regulated ventilation without a screen door. Windoor hardwood doors also offer easier ventilation and egress for better handicap accessibility.

Glazing

Dry Glazing

Specially developed extruded silicone gasket sets the glass by compression. Our proprietary system is long-lived, has low maintenance, and stays water resistant.

Wet Glazing

Our special silicone wet glazing compound bonds to the glass for long-lived sealing. Plus our continuous extruded silicone weatherstrip runs around the frame perimeter, and the seal is not compromised by seasonal expansion and contractions of the sash and frame.
