Vinyl Windows
Vinyl frames are made primarily from polyvinyl chloride (PVC). This material has many advantages, including being virtually maintenance-free. There will be differences in the quality of one manufacturer's vinyl compared to another. This is because a vinyl frame is made from a compound—a recipe of sorts—that dictates its performance over time. Each additive to a company's vinyl recipe helps determine the long-term characteristics of the final product, like its weather and impact resistance. For example, titanium dioxide makes the vinyl more heat resistant. At first glance, competing windows may look the same, but there can be key differences in the vinyl recipe used and how vinyl parts are formed to make a window structurally strong and optimize insulation performance. As one of the most popular types of windows, vinyl windows offer a superior level of energy efficiency and durability. Additionally, vinyl windows are traditionally known for being virtually maintenance free, requiring only a simple cleaning to help keep them looking like new. At C-MeTrim, we are proud to carry a huge array of incredibly high quality vinyl windows available in a variety of styles.

SmartTouch® Lock
t’s the easiest, smartest way to lock and unlock a window or door, and also assures you that when your window is closed, its locked. Responding to consumer needs for products that are easy to operate and maintain, Milgard developed the innovative SmartTouch window lock and door handle. Milgard was awarded the Arthritis Foundation Ease-of-Use Commendation in recognition of the SmartTouch lock and handle’s innovation and universal design.
Milgard vinyl windows are available in ten exterior frame colors. Choose from standard colors of tan and white or enjoy more color flexibility with premium exterior finishes to coordinate with your home design. From the newly popular ‘fog’ to rich, bold ‘espresso’, get inspired with all the possibilities. To create color that lasts, Milgard developed a new coating technology that allows UV rays to pass through the paint and reflect off the vinyl frame. This preserves the exterior color and finish.
