Custom WindowThe Custom Window Series 5000 window system is designed for home owners who desire the look and feel of institutional metal windows without the large framing members usually associated with commercial products. It features expansive areas of glass with minimal intrusion of the framing members, plus the look and feel of quality, energy efficient commercial grade windows.
The Series 5000 combines the energy efficiency normally associated with residential products with the much higher standards for air infiltration, water resistance and durability of higher performing commercial grade windows. It incorporates double thermal breaks and hermetically sealed, insulated glass units for the highest energy values (U-Value of .23 on fixed and .36 on operating units). All opening ventilators are double weather-stripped and use durable, commercial grade hardware. The Series 5000 features a very small ratio of metal to glass and incorporates ventilators that swing open to the outside, and can be hinged from the top or from the side. Glazing options are available that will drastically reduce sound infiltration into your home. The Custom Window Company Series 5000 is available in two different types of finishes, anodized or Kynar painted. Anodizing is an electrochemical process that thickens and toughens the naturally occurring protective oxide. The resulting finish, depending on the process, is the second hardest substance known to man, second only to the diamond. Anodizing is the most durable finish in high traffic areas, and provides a more "industrial" look to the project. Anodized finishes are available in clear, bronze or black hues. The Custom Window Series 5000 window system incorporates only the highest quality, commercial-grade hardware. All hardware has been subjected to "life-cycle" testing to provide many years of service without failure. Hardware is available in push-out or roto hardware, and a variety of finishes. |
