Let’s window shop.An inspired approach.
You’ve got a vision. But consider the particulars
of your home first. When was it built? What is
its style? Are you looking to make your windows
an enhancement of the exterior, or a subtle
finishing touch? And that’s just the look. There’s
still so much more to think about. Below are some
guidelines to help you consider all the factors.
Choose Windows
It starts with form and function.
So the first step is to browse
types and shapes of windows.
See pages 6 - 10
Choose Finishes
Go natural, or choose exterior
and interior finishes that suit
your style.
See page 11
Choose Glass, Grilles
and Hardware
Whether you choose something
standard or standout, small design
details can make a big impact.
See pages 12-13
Simple, isn’t it?
Once you’re happy with your selection,
contact us and we’ll coordinate your
next steps.

A simplified process.
Are interior rooms consistently comfortable?
Do you feel drafts or cool air
around the windows?
Are you hoping these new windows will establish
a different look, or simply serve as replacements?
Do you see cracks, rot or deteriorating
wood around your existing windows?
Is it difficult to open or close your windows?
Do you see fog or condensation
on your windows?
These initial guidelines should bring you
to the ideal combination of windows
and accessories—the ones that will
bring your vision to life.

Superior Strength
Beechworth™
products resist sagging
and twisting—a common symptom of
worn vinyl windows. The composition
of the material is extremely strong, so
it withstands the effects of seasonal
changes. The material will also, with
exposure to temperature changes, move
significantly less than vinyl windows.
See how well things can turn out.Perfect for those hard-to-reach spots. Casements give you uninterrupted views and
maximum airflow, with a single handle that tucks away nicely.

FEATURES
Superior Durability
Lower maintenance is the benefit of a Beechworth window over a wood
window. Fiberglass has a much lower rate of expansion and contraction,
and it won’t absorb water as wood does. Another benefit is that it will
move significantly less with exposure to temperature changes than you
could see with vinyl windows. This protects the integrity of the window
aesthetic and its finish, and prevents added repair costs.

Evaluate Efficiency
On average, 15-20% of a home’s walls are glass from windows, so
there is value in a proper glass treatment. All Beechworth Glass
Packages have low-E coatings, argon gas and a warm edge spacer
between panes for maximum thermal efficiency.

The difference is as clear as day.
To determine thermal efficiency, here are a few simple things to look for in your glass:
Low-E coatings and two panes reduce
the movement of heat energy through
the glass to the inside of your home
Argon gas between the panes slows heat loss
for more stable temperatures in the home
Our spacers carry less of the heat or
cold to the outside of your home,
reducing condensation
