EFF IC IENCY & STRENGTH

Our latest wood protection technology

seals the wood in the windows so that no

moisture can penetrate, and it’s backed

by one of the best no-rot warranties in

the window and door industry.

WOODSHIELD

Worry-FreeExteriors

Standard Premium Paint

30 Year No-Rot Warranty

Our uniquely designed extruded

aluminum cladding is 50% stronger

than standard thin roll-form

cladding. That strength equates to

better protection against salt water

corrosion, denting and fading.

Ours Other Manufacturers

All Weather Shield Premium

Coastal™ products come standard

with AAMA 2605 paint, which offers

outstanding resistance to humidity,

color change, chalk, gloss loss and

deterioration from chemicals like

salt and acid rain.

Why Is Impact Resistant Glass So Important?

Premium Coastal Impact Glass

Premium Coastal Windows and Doors feature heavy-duty

impact-resistant glass that consists of a tough laminated

interlayer bonded between two panes of glass. This impact-

resistant layer helps prevent flying debris from entering the

home in strong/severe windstorms. Find out more about

Weather Shield’s glass options on pages 18 and 19.

High-Performance Glass

Get ComfortableChoosing the right glass can help improve a home’s energy efficiency and safety. That means saving on energy bills, the environment, and your home’s interior from sun damage, while staying cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Insulated Glass ConstructionRather than using a single pane of glass, an insulated glass unit is comprised of two lites of glass that are combined into one airtight unit.

IMPACT RESISTANT LAMINATED GLASSPolyvinyl butyral (PVB) or DuPont SentryGlas® Plus (SGP) Interlayer bonded between two panes of glass

STRUCTURAL STAINLESS STEEL SPACERCorrugated shape adds strength. Bent corners create a continuous impermeable barrier around the entire perimeter.

DESICCANTAssures optimum moisture absorption while minimizing the effects of temperature-related pressure changes.

Single Glazed ConstructionFor those areas that codes allow single glazed windows and doors, Weather Shield has the products to fit. Single glazed products are fortified with Polyvinyl Butyral (PVB) or DuPont™

SentryGlas® Plus (SGP) Interlayer bonded between two panes of glass. For added solar control our single glazed windows are available with LoE³ 366 or LoE³ 340 performance glass coatings.

Perimeter GrillesFeaturing a full-frame design that rests on the inside of the unit, Weather Shield uses a concealed pin system to snap the perimeter grille frame securely into place. The grilles can be easily removed for cleaning the entire interior glass surface.

Simulated Divided Lites (SDL)SDL grilles most closely imitate the old-world single pane glass options. With exterior and interior grille bars – either with or without the aluminum space bars – SDL grilles offer the clean, three-dimensional sight lines that most traditionalists prefer

Airspace GrillesAluminum grille bars in either a sculpted or flat design are sealed in between the two panes of glass with airspace grilles. This simulates the look of traditional grilles while making glass cleaning a simple task.
