FLEETWOOD 


Since 1961, Fleetwood USA has manufactured modern-style windows and doors in their Southern California factory. They are among the few manufacturers today who unabashedly design and market specifically for the luxury residential segment. 


While architects and builders are most familiar with their large format sliding doors, Fleetwood offers numerous different window series, hinged, folding, and pivot doors, and most recently, their Edge series of frameless products. 


CUSTOM


Aluminum is a prevalent luxury residential window market segment, with contemporary architecture being so en vogue. Strong, durable, corrosion-resistant, and readily abundant, aluminum is a terrific choice for those seeking a low-maintenance window. 


We look for the little things in aluminum windows: How is the product assembled? What quality of paint or anodize is applied to the material? With modern-day thermal enhancements to the frames and sashes, aluminum can now achieve similar energy performance to that of wood or fiberglass. When crisp, clean profiles are desired, aluminum is a perfect option.







THE LITTLE THINGS


Dedication to architectural integrity and meticulous refinement of the little things defines Fleetwood. Pointing out that most other aluminum brands typically have third-party suppliers make their hardware and rollers, CEO Mark McCoy says, “If you’re strictly a profit-driven company, you don’t make your hardware. We try to master the little things our competitors take for granted.”


Fleetwood products are manufactured using recycled aluminum and glass and offered in inert coatings and finishes. Before making any final decision, we urge you to explore their website and carefully investigate self-proclaimed equals. Less expensive products claim equality with Fleetwood, but the differences become evident under close examination
