Explore our different window options as you plan your springtime home upgrades.

Beautify Your Home With New Windows

Whether you choose vinyl or aluminum windows, you can rely on the durability and quality of our impact windows. Different styles meet the different needs of your Florida home.

Casement Windows

The classic simplicity of casement windows ensures ease of opening. The hinges of the window are on the side, and they open outward with a hand crank or with a push, allowing you to invite in the Florida spring breezes. Casement windows are a good option for areas that may be hard to reach, like over the kitchen sink. When closed, you can enjoy added energy efficiency and advanced security features. The clean lines of this window style allow for unobstructed views.

Double-Hung Windows

The top and bottom sashes in a double-hung window are operable, allowing you to better control the airflow in your home. Let cool air flow inside from the bottom while warm air flows out on the top. Maintenance is a snap because each sash tilts down, so you can clean both sides of the window from the inside of your home. The double-hung style is popular among homeowners because of its classic lines and easy adaptability to the home's aesthetic.

Single-Hung Windows

With single-hung windows, the top sash remains stationary, and you can tilt the bottom sash to allow for ventilation. This style is a design that provides light and airflow to any room of your home without breaking your budget. You can customize the frame to match your home's look. Like all ARMORVUE windows, single-hung windows are built for maximum durability and strength.

Horizontal Roller/Slider Windows

Whereas double-hung windows have window sashes that slide up and down, slider windows have sashes that slide from side to side. They are called horizontal roller or slider windows because they glide open easily, the two sashes overlapping, requiring no extra space. Many homeowners prefer this window style because it requires very little effort to operate and has fewer moving parts. Fewer working parts mean more durability over time. Slider windows are often wider than they are tall, perfect for wide views of the Florida landscape.

Picture Windows

Picture windows can provide a beautiful focal point in your home. One of the best benefits of a picture window is its ability to fill your room with natural light. Many picture windows are large and can be customized to match your home's architecture. You can get a great view of the outside while creating a stunning look that adds value and beauty to your home. Because they do not open, there are no moving parts to keep maintained over the years.

Shape Windows

Add interest to your home with a non-standard-shaped window, such as a half-circle or a hexagon. Shape windows are custom-designed to fit your home's style. Like a picture window, they are usually made inoperable, which reduces wear and tear on window parts. An expertly-installed shape window, whether it has curves or angles, is durable and airtight, creating a strong barrier against the Florida elements.

More Benefits of New Impact Windows

New impact windows from ARMORVUE do more than beautify your home. They offer other valuable benefits, such as storm protection and energy efficiency.

Storm Protection

Florida weather can be harsh, which is why you need windows that withstand high winds and flying debris. Impact windows have shatter-resistant glass and materials to keep your home safe during hurricanes and other severe storms.

Energy Efficiency

The insulated glass in all our impact windows keeps air in, preventing leakage that can make your HVAC system run more. Energy-efficient windows can help reduce your energy bills and enhance your home's comfort.
