What affects the price
The final price for impact windows depends on several variables specific to your home. The biggest factors include the total number of openings you need to cover, the style of the windows, and the specific glass thickness required for your local building codes. Opting for specialized frame materials or custom sizes will naturally push your investment higher compared to standard configurations. Additionally, the complexity of the installation process—such as the condition of your existing frames or the height of your home—plays a major role in the budget. We focus on matching the right hardware to your structural needs.

What are storm windows and how do they differ from impact windows?
Storm windows are typically secondary windows installed over your primary windows to provide an additional layer of protection against weather, often for temporary use during storms. Impact windows, on the other hand, are designed as a permanent, integrated solution with laminated glass and reinforced frames, engineered to withstand extreme wind pressures and projectile impacts directly.
