How to Judge Quality

New replacement windows must do more than look good. They must look good and function easily, reliably not just for years, but for decades. Hot days. Cold days. Windy Days. Rainy days. Year in, year out.

And then there’s surviving the unique weather conditions of the greater San Francisco Bay Area’s microclimates. Record breaking heat one week, below normal low temperatures the next. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. You get it. You live here.

In order to maintain their look and as-new functionality while dealing with such extreme structural stresses, replacement windows and doors must be constructed of the highest quality materials to the most exacting standards available.

Ever heard of “Builder Grade” windows? They’re the ones used by contractors and house flippers to “get the job done” – quickly and cheaply. They look good at first, but they aren’t built to withstand the rigors of daily use for decades.

We don’t sell those types of windows at ATMW. Every manufacturer we represent, every product we recommend, is of superior quality, designed to look and function in 20 years as good as they do on day one.
