Case Studies

Picture windows

Our picture windows (or fixed-frame windows) are ideal if you’re looking to create large seamless sections of glazing, or picture windows that frame a view from the house. They’re usually installed as large panes of glass that can be either single panes, joined together to make glass walls or integrated with one of our other systems such as sliding doors or bifold doors.
