Interior Storm Windows Interior storm windows excel in situations where secondary glazing is needed for fixed windows, or where an operating interior storm window is needed because historic standards do not permit an exterior storm window. Ease of cleaning, hi-rise buildings, large windows and complex openings are among the many reasons to consider an interior storm window.
Exterior/Inside Removable Storm Windows The Historic One Lite (HOL) series is designed to be “invisible”, - when painted the same color as the existing sash. All existing sash should be operable, to permit removal and/or cleaning from the interior. There is no hardware on the exterior. Typically, one or two panels are removable from the interior, and are secured by perimeter clips.
The Allied One Lite (AOL) series is used where the top sash of a double-hung is not operable, but the bottom panel needs to be inside-removable. The upper panel is outside-removable, and “invisible clips” (flush) are used on the perimeter.
The Bank One Lite (BOL) series is used where no master frame is desired. The bottom panel is inside-removable, and the upper panel is removable to the exterior.
All of the above series′ are available in a wide variety of glazing materials up to 3/16”, - as well as a full range of window film. Custom colors, custom shapes, screens, and glazing muntins are typical options. Mounting stops can be provided to adapt to field conditions.
Primary Uses: All of the above series are designed for use with existing double-hung windows. The Historic One Lite (HOL) is also ideal for inswinging wood or steel casement windows. Custom designs for all series can be developed for all field conditions, and styles of existing windows.
