400 Double-Hung Tilt Windows: Standard Series

Our newest line of window incorporates the best of both the #400 and #500 window series. With its ultra pleasing esthetics and engineered design mandate, we have produced the most advanced technology in this double hung tilt window. In fact, we are proud to say that this window exceeds the ANSI/AAMA/WDMA 101/I.S.2/NAFS-02 performance specifications for residential usage.

This double hung tilt window features co-pultruded lift rails and sash interlocks, low profile tilt latches, profiled cam locks, block and tackle balances, and a closed back frame for added rigidity.

Additionally, this double hung tilt window allows air circulation through the top and bottom, thus providing maximum ventilation and tilt-out access for easy window cleaning and maintenance. Fibertec Window & Door Mfg. windows provide one of the narrowest sight lines, thus giving you more glass area. The double hung window is more suitable for taller openings. Fibertec carries the most extensive glass options available catering to extreme weather climates. Anti-corrosion screens are on the outside of the window, and come in standard full screen or optional half screen. Fibertec has developed a fiberglass window system featuring advanced technology, resulting in one of the world`s best energy-rated systems that is environmentally friendly and is used in sustainable building.

Once installed in your home, Fibertec windows will never warp, twist, rot, shrink, or dent.
