The window and door frames in your home play a major role in both the style and function of your space. When it comes to choosing windows and door frames for your home, there are a lot of factors to consider. It's important to keep your lifestyle in mind. If you live in a sunny climate, you'll want to choose energy-efficient windows that will help keep your home cool. If you live in a windy area, you'll need to make sure that your doors are properly reinforced. And if you have young children or pets, you'll want to choose window and door materials that are durable and easy to clean.


The type of material to use is one of the most important decisions you'll need to make. There are a few different options on the market, each with its own set of benefits and drawbacks. Aluminum, wood, fiberglass, and vinyl are all popular choices, so it's important to take the time to compare them before making a decision. By taking the time to consider your needs, you can ensure that your new windows and doors will be both stylish and functional.



Aluminum Window & Door Frames

Aluminum doors and windows are a great choice for both new construction and replacement projects. Highly durable, low maintenance, contemporary, and energy-efficient, aluminum can offer great value for your home. Fleetwood's exclusive aluminum products provide a sleek, modern look to your home. They are available in a variety of styles to suit any architectural design, including both contemporary and ultra-contemporary looks. And because they're made with Fleetwood's high standards of quality, you can be sure they'll provide years of beauty and performance.

Wood Window & Door Frames

Wood windows and frames are a beautiful, classic choice for any home. They add character and warmth, and they can be customized to match the style of your home. Wood frames offer several benefits that are well worth the extra effort. For starters, wood is an excellent insulator, so opting for wooden windows and door frames can help to keep your home warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Additionally, wood frames are resistant to warping and shrinking, meaning they will maintain their shape and size over time. Perhaps most importantly, wood frames add a warm and natural element to any space. Wood is renewable and recyclable, so it's a great choice for anyone looking to be more eco-friendly. However, wood windows and frames require more upkeep than other materials. They need to be regularly sealed and painted to protect them from the elements, and they are more susceptible to damage from termites and other pests. As a result, wood windows and frames may not be the best choice for homes in areas with high humidity or insect populations. But, if you're willing to put in the extra effort, wood windows and frames can give your home charm with its classic style that never goes out-of-date!
