Grilles

Whether complementing the design of your home or elevating the view, our wide array of grille offerings brings your distinctive vision to life.

Wood Removable Grille

Wood Removable Grilles feature a frame design that offers strength superior to stick grilles offered by other window manufacturers. The frame snaps securely into the interior sash using a concealed pin system. Wood Removable Grilles make window cleaning easier, yet provide an added interior dimension. Custom grille designs are available.

Grille Between the Glass

Grille Between the Glass (GBG) consist of aluminum muntin bars in between two panes of insulating glass, giving you the look of divided lites while making window cleaning easier.

Grille Between the Glass Options

Simulated Divided Lite

Simulated Divided Lites (SDL) offer the authentic look of True Divided Lites without sacrificing energy efficiency. Interior and exterior bars are permanently adhered the glass and a narrow spacer bar is positioned within the insulating glass airspace. Unlike True Divided Lites, SDL utilizes a single pane of insulating glass, decreasing the potential for energy loss. Exterior bars will be finished to match the exterior finish specified. Shown with optional Grille Between the Glass (GBG).
