Discussion Board Forum for Vinyl Windows

Thanks everyone. My dealer forwarded the e-mail Okna sent them and it stated almost exactly what windows4u said. Basically, the sticker on sashes don't really mean much; it is there for production as another fail safe in case something was missed putting in the order (and they are even doing away wi...

Hello gentleman, I am reaching out hopefully one last time regarding the new windows that were just installed. I am very happy with the windows and installation (Okna 500 Deluxe), but I do have one question that I am hoping to get some non-biased information. Somehow, the grid pattern on 3 sets of m...

Just to add a little more information, the side double hung windows are 20 inches wide (about 13.5 inches of actual glass).

Hello, I'm looking at the Okna 500 Deluxe package. Does anyone know how much space is between the glass on the double pane? I've read the larger the amount the space, the better (specifically for sound abatement). Can you customize the order to increase the space? Also, would anyone know how thick t...

Hello, I would first like to thank everyone for sharing their thoughts and opinions on this site. You have really helped me make what I believe is a well educated decision about my replacement window purchase. I live in NJ in a home built in 1986 that has its original wood windows. The windows are d...
