1 Series 5100 Vinyl Replacement Windows

2 Series 5100 For remodeling projects which call for the classic styling of double hung or the convenience of sliding windows, look no further than the 5100 series for engineered beauty, low maintenance and high value. Quality Craftsmanship Material The vinyl of 5100 Series windows is made from a strong, unplasticized PVC material that provides long-lasting protection from scrapes, dents, and stains, and aids in maintaining a consistent color. Multicavity Construction 5100 Series windows use multicavity vinyl extrusions that create insulting air chambers to keep summer heat and winter cold outside. Fusion-Welded Construction 5100 Series windows feature fusion-welded corners on the frame and sash to keep the windows air- and water-tight. This improves the durability, strength, and operational smoothness of the window. Complete Weatherstripping A combination of fin and pile weatherstripping on 5100 Series windows provides an excellent protective barrier from water, outside air, and noise. Fusion-welded frame and sash create a continuous piece of vinyl that is both air and water tight. Contoured 3 1 / 4 frame Exterior glazed Metal-reinforced meeting rails Intercept warm-edge spacers Color choices of white or sandalwood Double hung features tilt-in sash and sloped sill Extruded screen frame Available in double hung, sliding and fixed-lite styles Casement Window Awning Window Double Hung Window Sliding Window Garden Window Bow Window Bay Window Sliding Patio Door 2 3

3 What, where, why. Fixed-lite and geometric shape windows Special window shapes can give your home a unique individuality. It could be a large picture window, transoms stretching from wall to wall above a bank of patio doors, or an arched expanse of glass that seems to light up an entire home. Fixed-lite windows can be used alone, or combined with other windows or patio doors. Bay, bow and garden windows There are a lot of great AWS windows and doors to choose from. Each operates a little differently. Here s a guide to help you tell the difference between them and why and where you might want to use one instead of another. So you can choose the right window or door for every room in your home. Bay, bow and garden windows make a room seem larger. With their multi-unit configurations, they create the feeling that the great outdoors is actually part of the room. A bay usually consists of a large fixed window between two casement or double hung units. A bow consists of several casements or double hung units mulled together, creating a smooth arc or bow. The garden window configuration allows added sunlight from nearly any direction. Sliding patio doors Casement windows For top-to-bottom unobstructed views and wide-open ventilation, you can t beat casement windows. They re hinged on the side, and the entire sash swings outward to open. Clean lines, smooth operation and easy cleaning make casements a favorite around the country. Awning windows Awning windows are a great choice when you want the fresh air of an open window even if it s raining. They can be used alone, but are most often stacked, combined in a grouping, or placed underneath a large picture window to provide ventilation. Double hung windows Perhaps because it s the most traditional window, the double hung is also the most popular window. It can open from the top or bottom, and features tilt in sashes for easy cleaning. Horizontal sliding windows For a more unique style and a slightly more contemporary look, try horizontal sliding windows. They re a good alternative for locations where you don t want the sash of a casement or awning window sticking out in the way on your deck or walkway, for example. But that s merely a practical reason for choosing them. Many people simply prefer the clean lines and smooth, gliding operation of a slider. Sliding patio doors are a great space-saving option compared to swinging doors. One panel is operable, the other is fixed. They are easily combined with additional doors, sidelites and transoms.
