EuroLite Construction
Dual Chambered Design
Four times stronger and stiffer then the competition, EuroLite’s famous frame construction is in a league of its own.
With two paralel chambers pressure bonded to the thermal break, sashes and slabs feel like solid steel. You will appreciate difference when you first open one of our doors or windows – they look fine and delicate, but feel like solid steel.
Advanced insulation is at the heart of our engineering. With high tech Insulated glass and triple perimeter seals, in addition to our thermal break. There is no better way to stop heat transfer, air and water incursion.
Integral Insulation
- Insulated Glass Unit, 2-3 panes with argon or krypton fill.
- Thermal Break, stops heat transfer through frame.
- Bi-Vane Weather Strip, prevents air and water incursion
- D Seals, cushions against heat transfer
(PLEASE NOTE; Colors are for illustraion purposes only, seals and thermal break are charcoal, glass is neutral)
The four profiles in our range all have different qualities to suit the application:
Energy Guardian
Thermally broken steel frames for all climate zones in US and Canada. Marine quality finish with Zinc plated base.
Stainless Guardian
Same as Energy Guardian but made with 100% Stainless steel with same marine quality finish as steel.
Storm Defender
Steel protection for Coastal areas including HVHZ Hurricane Zones. Marine quality finish with Zinc plated base.
Stainless Defender
Same as Storm Defender but made with 100% Stainless steel with powder coated finish.
Int-Slim
This is typically used for interior partitions and has no thermal break and a sightline height of 1 inch. It can replace Historic on units up to 100”.
Keeping Heat in its Place
Your climate may have icy winters or blistering summers, but even in milder climates, energy costs are rising all the time. Homes built before 1960 cost twice as much to maintain as homes built after 2008. The technology available in 2023 achieves levels of thermal efficiency, unimaginable only a few years ago.
Our specially enhanced perimeter seals provide the most effective barrier against both air and water incursion. In addition to thermal D seals, heavy duty vane seals further protect against water and air infiltration, even when there is a strong pressure differential between the inside and outside of the building.
With NFRC certified ratings and Energy Star, you can be sure you are making the best choice with EuroLite fenestration.
World Class Glazing
We are the only company to offer dual and triple pane, krypton gas filled, insulated glass as a standard feature in all our exterior doors and windows. Partnering with Saint-Gobain & Guardian Glass, our glazing systems are engineered to provide the optimum U factor, solar control and light transmission for your specific needs.
With EuroLite, you can include large expanses of glass in your project and still maintain exceptional energy performance. EuroLite U-factors are as low as 0.18! Read more about our glazing. . .
Non Thermally Broken Steel Options
For interior partions and for some exterior units in mild climates, two non-thermally broken steel frame types are available, HISTORIC and TRIMLINE.
With a sightline height of 1” and overall frame thickness of less than 1 1/2“, TRIMLINE is a very elegant solutuon for interior doors and partitions. HISTORIC can also be replace by TRIMLINE on units up to 100” high.
These frames do not have NFRC ratings or energy star.. Ask your project manager if you think these designs might be appropriate for your project.
