Western Window Systems' Simulated Steel line features thermally broken moving glass windows and walls. Clean, narrow profiled windows mean large glass panes, maximizing natural light and views.
Customization
It can be used to achieve several styles: from traditional projects with factory-style windows and doors to modern minimalist looks featuring large glass panes. Custom window options include split finishes, screens, and hardware. Moving glass windows can be specified and are available in oversize options thanks to Western Window Systems signature aluminum extrusion design, which is low-maintenance and environmentally friendly.

Low U-value ratings, and low-E, argon-filled dual-pane glass make the thermally broken Simulated Steel Windows great at reducing energy consumption. A proprietary Insulbar profile assists in increased thermal performance and strength.
