” We carry many different brands, different types of windows. This is the most common type of window. Vinyl double hung. This is from Advanced Window, their 6300, top of the line, high-end series. Both these windows go up and down. You could tilt both windows in for cleaning as well. It’s really simple. Easy to use, comes with a standard half screen that goes up and down as well. Then you could lock it right here. And there’s also a couple safety locks as well. So this would be like the inside of the window. And then the outside, everything would get capped in aluminum and caulked around as well. And that’s just a really simple look. These also have colonial grids that are optional to get with the glass. And the glass is all Low-e and Argon as well. The next window is also vinyl, but it’s a woodgrain. That kind of looks like real wood. This is also the Advanced 6300 series. This is a two light casement, they call it, that cranks open. And this also has a transom above. That sometimes is necessary. But these just crank open like that. Really easy to use. They both kind of lock right here. And it comes with the standard full screen on the inside as well. That’s easy to take out. And you can clean the windows simply as well. The next type of window, these are Pella. These are two different series. So the first one is a casement window, from their lifestyle series. This opens up like this and has these nice fold down handles as well. And then this cranks out really easily. This also shows the optional grid pattern as well. And these are all wood clad. So it means wood on the inside. And then aluminum on the outside. This is also a Lifestyle window. This is a double hung, that goes up and down like that. And then this is their Reserve series. This is their highest end. This is what it has the nice handle here as well. That goes up and down and then they have the grids up on the inside, that you can only get on wood windows like this. And then again, everything on the outside is just aluminum clad. And you could get different types of capping on the outside. That’s all optional. This is another type of window. This is Pella again. This is Impervious series, which is fiberglass. This is a really strong window. This is a big double hung that we carry here. And again, all these open up, and you could even open up the . . . the top one as well, if you want to clean them both. Could kind of show you how that works here. And it comes with a half screen as well. Just like the vinyl window. And then again on the outside we’re showing different options. This has a tan color. And we did white capping because sometimes people want to do different options. And you could do that as well. These are all the different kind of capping colors you can get. There’s 48 different kinds. These are also custom colors you could get for outside of windows. Besides the standard ones. Then next we have a sliding patio door. This is a standard six foot white vinyl. And then on the inside it has a – what they call a four point locking system, which when you kind of push it in and you could lock it with the foot lock here, that’s the other lock in here. And then when you close it that is also another lock here and make it super secure. This one is a European window. It’s called the Tilt and Turn EU 76 Septum series. This is really popular in Europe. A lot of people really like these. These are really nice. So they open up like this. And this one, again, these are prairie grids, they’re called, with an almond on the outside. What’s really nice about this window. So it could open just like that. This will lock it. Then you could also put it on here and it’ll tilt like that as well. Which is really a type of unique window. They also make this as a door, too. This is the French door. Tilt and Turn and again, kind of opens up like that as well. You could get a screen if you want as an option, and then it opens up like this too on the top. And then these are two different types of standard windows. These are both vinyl. These are almond and the inside as an option. This is a called the two light slider that slides open locks here. And then it comes with half screen as well. This is just another option of color. This is black a lot of people are choosing black colors. Black capping looks really nice and sleek. The top window is an awning window. So that’s also like a casement, but it cranks out. So they have awning windows. They have hopper windows that go in, but this one cranks out like that comes with the full screen. And then that locks on the sides here.”
