Picture Windows: Frequently Asked Questions, Answered

Your local window replacement pros from Renewal by Andersen® of Rapid City answer the frequently asked questions about picture windows.

Q: Do Your Picture Windows Come in Different Sizes?

Our window offerings, including picture windows, come in a wide variety of sizes. Our replacement window process involves taking your home’s measurements to custom-fit your new windows. The resulting window unit that we’ll bring to your home for installation is one that’s specifically made to fit your property and increase its function and aesthetics.

Q: What Are They Made Of?

Fibrex®, our exclusive composite material, is a combination of real wood fibers and high-quality proprietary polymer. This material gives our replacement picture windows their wood-like strength and vinyl-like low-maintenance qualities. It performs well under strenuous weather conditions—more reason to pursue a picture window installation project if you want to achieve better energy efficiency.

Q: What Glass Do You Use?

Daylighting, or bringing in natural light indoors to increase your interior’s visual appeal, is one of the notable benefits picture windows can offer you. It’s for this reason that we make our window frames narrow to accommodate more glass area. We only utilize High-Performance™ Low-E4® glass, which works to let natural light in while blocking off unwanted UV and infrared rays. With this, your indoors remain comfortable all year round.

Apart from picture windows installation, we also offer double hung window repair and casement window replacement. Give us a call at (605) 341-7831 to get started. You may also fill out our contact form for a free, in-home consultation. We serve residents of Rapid City, SD.
