EXTRUDED METAL EXTERIORS
Aluminum or bronze exterior framing and sash systems are available for projects with special durability or aesthetic requirements. The aluminum framing is fully welded at the corner joints leaving no unsightly visible seams, and the bronze exterior can be finished in various stages of chemically induced patinas, or can be left to naturally age over time.

FACED, NOT CLAD
Megawood+Aluminum™ and Megawood+Bronze™ are NOT clad. We replace the exterior wood profile with heavy metal extrusions. We call it aluminum or bronze faced as it is far superior to cladding.

FINISHES
All Megawood™ products are factory finished for complete responsibility, durability and protection. You can have split finishes, custom colors, UV-resistant stains and wonderful patinas; all to match your building pallet.
Finishing is no longer a headache or an afterthought.

GLASS
Extra thick 1-1/4” double paned insulating glass is the standard. This extra thickness allows for the largest windows and doors in the industry. Individual glass panes may be tinted, reflective, Low-”E”, laminated, fully tempered, heat strengthened or as otherwise specified to meet the design requirements of the project.

STRUCTURAL GLAZING
Sash profiles remain narrow and elegant due to structural silicone bonding of the insulating glass to the sash. This creates a monolithic construction between sash and glass providing strength and acting against any sagging, twisting and bowing of the sash frame. An aluminum reinforcing angle is buried within the glazing pocket to strengthen the sash and to act as a stable bonding surface for the structural silicone used to attach the insulating glass.

FLUSH CONSTRUCTION
You can have the most elegant flush construction regardless of the window or door operation. We don’t use overlapping sashes and frames to mask crooked joints because Megawood™ windows are beautifully crafted and can never sag. Both sash and frame are flush and on the same plane, leaving consistent reveals for a clean, modern profile.

NARROW SIGHTLINES
Less is more! Megawood’s™ specialty is providing the narrowest possible face sightlines at operable window and door framing as a natural element of its design. Less frame means more glass area, for more light to the inside and more view to the outside.

HUGE OPERABLES
Structural glazing is the secret to enormous operable windows and doors. High modulus silicone allows the glass to support the wood instead of the wood supporting glass. The window/door cannot sag no matter how large because the glass will not parallelogram. 5’ wide windows and 12’ tall doors are easily accomplished, all with ultra-thin frames!

WINDOW WALLS
Windows and doors can be combined into larger openings to form elegant window walls of unprecedented height and width due to the strength provided by steel mullions buried between the frames. These are not separate added-on steel stiffeners surrounded by massive, bulky and boxy built-up mullions as offered by other window manufacturers, but a slim steel skeleton designed into the Megawood™ system.

FUNCTIONAL FLEXIBILITY
Megawood’s™ completely modular system lets you interchange any function (casement, hopper, tilt-turn, etc.) in any location while maintaining the same sightlines, the same rigidity and the same strength as any other arrangement. This feature allows complete flexibility without sacrificing design considerations.

PERFORMANCE
Two continuous lines of extruded silicone rubber gaskets provide an airtight and waterproof seal. Precision multi-point locking hardware is standard, and is buried within the frame for unseen high-level operation and security. These features, combined with the best materials and expert craftsmanship, assure consistently straight joints and square sashes every time, resulting in products that easily exceed industry standards for air and water infiltration and structural performance.

SPECIAL APPLICATIONS
You dream it . . . We build it. Don’t feel constrained by the examples in this website. This system allows you to design whatever you want. We’ll provide it with no compromises in design, execution or performance.
