The contemporary look includes a 2.25” x 3.5” stile for additional glass and natural light, a concealed locking system, and a frame and sill depth of 4.5”, allowing it to integrate into nearly any wall. - Durable
Manufactured in the U.S., each product family is tested for air, water, and structural performance and certified by the NFRC and AAMA.
