Awning Windows Customization Options
Customize your awning windows with finishes that balance durability and beauty, rigorously tested for Chicago’s tough climate.
Solid finishes
Choose classic White or warm Almond for a low-maintenance, polished look. These are favorites among our Naperville clients for their effortless upkeep and aesthetic appeal.
Painted finishes
Our eco-friendly vinyl paint is non-toxic, lead-free, and engineered for heat resistance and flexibility, moving with the vinyl to prevent cracking. Opt for bold Bronze or sleek Black, as seen in our Lincoln Park projects.
Our paint has been specially designed for vinyl windows and engineered for maximum durability and heat reflection:
- Non-toxic, non-hazardous, non-flammable, environmentally friendly, lead- and chromium-free;
- Has excellent cohesion to the vinyl. It is elastic and moves with the vinyl as it expands and contracts. Also, the paint has exceptional abrasion and impact resistance.
- Ensures both long-term color retention and low heat absorption.
Laminated finishes
Light Oak and Dark Oak laminates, tested in Grafco labs for heat reflectivity and adhesion, come with a lifetime warranty, adding warmth to suburban homes.
The laminate films endure a series of rigorous tests performed within the Grafco laboratory. These tests include heat reflectivity, Delta E (fade factor), distortion and adhesion, allowing us to offer a lifetime warranty.
Some of the Custom Color Options
Make a statement with hues like Royal Bronze, Cocoa, or Bonneville Green, tailored to match Chicago’s diverse architecture, from historic to contemporary.
Our awning windows feature advanced insulated glass units (IGUs) for year-round comfort and energy savings.
Double- and Tripple-pane Glass Units
With thicknesses from 0.708" to 1.417" (18-36 mm), these units reduce energy costs by up to 25%, per ENERGY STAR data and feedback from our Oak Park installations.
Our window and door products feature insulated glass units (IGU) with dual or triple pane combinations.
Thickness ranges from 0.708" to 1.417" (18-36 mm) depending on the product. Glass panes are available in various thicknesses and types.
Coated glass, tints, and patterns are available for double and triple pane units. NEAT® coating on the exterior surface allows for easy cleaning.
Energy-efficient Spacers
Equipped with INTERCEPT UltraSpacer®, Endur, or SuperSpacer® systems and filled with argon or argon/krypton gas, our IGUs meet industry standards and include a 20-year warranty against seal failures, ensuring lasting performance.
Go with glass that nails the mix of warmth retention, safety, and simple upkeep, perfect for Chicago’s wild weather swings.
Insulation
LoĒ-270 Coated Glass
Keeps the summer sun and UV rays out while snuggling in winter heat, a real money-saver for folks up on the North Shore.
LoĒ-366 Coated Glass
A clear finish that leaves tinted glass in the dust, letting light flood in while taming solar heat—spot on for downtown towers.
Safety
Annealed glass
A solid, no-fuss option for spots that don’t need extra protection, baked with heat for steady performance.
Fully tempered glass
Packs four times the strength of annealed, shattering into tiny safe bits—great for homes with little ones running around.
Heat Treated Glass
Twice as tough as annealed, it’s a smart, affordable way to toughen things up.
Laminated Glass
Takes a beating and holds together, making city apartments safer and sounder.
Laminated glass does more: it is the type of safety glazing that also remains intact within the window frame.
Maintenance
Neat Glass
This clever coating cuts down on cleaning time, keeping windows fresh longer—a Lakeview favorite for busy households.
Add character with decorative grids sealed inside the glass for hassle-free upkeep.
Grid options
Decorative grids or blinds can be added and are sealed within the glass units.
- Farmhouse Grid Style: Rustic charm, perfect for cozy suburban homes.
- Colonial Grid Style: Timeless patterns that complement Chicago’s historic brownstones.
- Prairie Grid Style: Open, modern designs for a contemporary edge, popular in our River North projects.

What Are Awning Windows?

Versatile Placement: Pair with other window styles for added beauty and function, enhancing any room in Chicago’s diverse homes.
