Our Products

Alside sets the standard by which other replacement windows are measured.

Over 65 years of innovation has resulted in a collection of windows that are designed and engineered to provide beauty, performance, ease of operation and increased energy efficiency. 

Whether you are remodeling, renovating or building a new home, Alside Windows deliver unmatched beauty, strength and energy savings. Alside Windows are custom-made to fit your current window openings precisely. They are easier to install because they require no additional wall construction, in comparison to stock windows found at your local retailer. 

Best of all, Alside Windows gracefully enhance the architectural style of your home, whether it’s traditional or contemporary, there’s a model to fit your specific style, performance and budget needs.

Double Hung Windows

The double hung is considered by many to be the traditional American window. Its styling features two vertically-operating sashes, allowing for maximum ventilation. 

The windows are classic in design, from the sleek sight-line interlock and the routed tilt latches, to the clean-looking, crisp balance covers. These “simple” elements prove that Vista is concerned about even the seemingly small details and that a window can be beautiful and energy-efficient. 

By adding a full screen option, you can open both top and bottom sashes to create maximum air flow. In addition, both sashes tilt in for easy cleaning from inside the home. You can also add our woodgrain laminate option to create the look of real wood without the maintenance.

Horizontal Sliders

The slider is a design that allows both sashes (sometimes called “vents”) to slide independently, allowing for maximum ventilation. They are often used in openings where the width is greater than the height. Vista’s sliders operate with fingertip ease and allow for maximum viewing area. 

Sliders come in the 2-Lite and 3-Lite varieties. In a 2-Lite slider, each sash slides. In a 3-Lite slider, both sashes on either end slide, while the center panel is stationary.

Casement, Awning and Hopper Windows

Aesthetic beauty, security and utility are all included with a Vista casement window. Casement windows crank out, acting like a door on a hinge. They can open outward to either the left or the right, and can be joined together (mulled). It is not uncommon to see double casement and triple casement combinations. 

An awning window is similar to a casement turned on its side, except that it has different hardware. This special hardware allows it to hinge at the top and open towards the outside from the bottom. 

Casements and awnings can be combined in many ways to create very dramatic palladian-style window walls. These combination window walls can improve the entire look and feel of your home. 

Hopper windows are windows somewhat similar to awning windows, yet in reverse. Hoppers are hinged at the bottom of the window and open up from the top falling into the inside of the home. Hoppers are commonly used in basements.

Geo & Combination Windows

Picture windows are the perfect style of window to provide you with an expansive panoramic view of the world outside, as well as to make the room they brighten seem larger and more open. Vista picture window profiles can be made into several dynamic combination shapes. Let your imagination go and design the window of your dreams. 

Picture windows can be combined with any other window style to create truly unique, and sometimes massive, combinations. 

Our Geometric Windows come in a wide variety of styles, perfect for adding curb appeal to your home individually or combining with picture windows for a one-of-a-kind window. 

Vista provides two different profile frames of our picture windows to perfectly match any other window in a combination unit, again showing the Vista attention to detail.

Bay & Bow Windows

Vista handcrafts every dimensional projection window to your specifications utilizing only the very finest raw materials. The frames of the window, as well as the head and seat boards, are constructed using the most high-end furniture-grade oak or birch plywood available. 

The mullion posts between the windows in the unit are not only structural, but they are also completely filled with energy-efficient, die-cut polystyrene foam. The head and seat boards are tied together as one, using steel through-rods, making the unit incredibly strong and weathertight. Vista handcrafts each and every window from start to finish, allowing for total control over quality in house and ensuring a perfect window for you and your home.

Garden Windows

Vista’s garden window is designed to let in maximum light, while still retaining energy efficiency. All Vista garden windows are custom made for a perfect fit and come with a lifetime warranty. 

Operating casements provide full ventilation and are standard with a full screen. The sloped roof angle provides for excellent drainage and maximum sunlight. The beauty of the garden window is enhanced by the standard birch or optional oak jamb and sill.

Vista Patio Doors

The Vista patio door gives you the maximum in energy savings, yet still has one of the largest glass areas of any door in the industry, allowing for a great view of the outdoors. 

Available in five stock sizes, it can also be custom-made to fit virtually any opening. Strength, durability and ease of operation are only a few of the features on the Vista patio door. 

A patio door must be easy to operate, but it also needs to be very secure. With a keyed lockset, thumb-turn deadbolt and kick lock, Vista incorporates three totally separate locking points to ensure your family’s security. 

The substantial amount of glass in a patio door means that you need an energy-efficient door to help minimize drafts. Vista offers a variety of dual- and triple-glazed options to suit any climate and budget. 

Vista patio doors are available in white, tan or four interior woodgrains and twelve exterior colors. There are also a variety of hardware colors and finishes to help you design the perfect patio door for your home.
