Specs & Materials

Frame & Jamb

While these exterior steel fixed windows do not have a separate frame, they do come standard 2” thick (net size) and are made from cold-rolled air series steel. Custom jamb sizes are available via our made to order section.

Foam

These steel exterior fixed windows come filled with a polyurethane foam core, which acts as a sound deadening material, and also provides some insulating properties for better energy efficiency. The foam also helps prevent moisture from accumulating inside the steel tubes, contributing to the door's longevity.

This nailer fin is inset to allow for a 1/2” of finish work on the exterior of your home, and includes pre-drilled holes around the entire face of the fin.
