500 Premium Fixed Windows: Wood Clad Fiber® Series (DHT)

Our fiberglass stainable laminate window series offers the best of both worlds – the carefree and durability aspects of a fiberglass window frame, plus the beauty of a stainable oak laminate interior. We recommend that the wood laminate be treated immediately after installation in order to maintain its beauty.

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