Two exterior expressions

Every product. All wood or wood-aluminum clad.

Both begin with the same engineered timber structure and the same warm, genuine-wood interior. The choice is about exterior expression, exposure, maintenance and budget.

Compare materials + finishes
01

All wood

Real wood is visible inside and outside. It offers the fullest natural-material expression and typically the lower initial cost.

  • Best for protected or thoughtfully detailed elevations
  • Maximum species, stain and paint flexibility
  • Exterior finish needs periodic inspection and care
02

Wood-aluminum clad

A ventilated, powder-coated aluminum skin protects the exterior while the full warmth of timber remains visible inside.

  • Ideal for high exposure and lower-maintenance goals
  • Broad exterior colour selection
  • Higher initial investment for added weather protection

Tilt-and-turn windows

Fenstür’s primary operable window combines controlled top-tilt ventilation with a full inward-turn opening for access, generous airflow and easy cleaning. Multipoint hardware draws the sash against continuous compression seals from one central handle.

  • Tilt inward at the top for controlled ventilation
  • Turn fully inward for cleaning, access and larger airflow
  • Up to 330 lb / 150 kg sash capacity in applicable systems
  • 78 mm and 106 mm wood or wood-aluminum configurations
  • Passive House Certified 106 mm options available

Picture windows

Picture windows place the view first. With no operable sash or hardware, direct-glazed configurations use less visible frame and create broad, uninterrupted glass areas. They can stand alone or share a coordinated composition with operable windows.

  • Direct-glazed construction for more glass and slimmer sightlines
  • Custom rectangles, combinations and architectural shapes
  • 78 mm and 106 mm wood or wood-aluminum configurations
  • Double-pane, triple-pane and specialized glazing packages
  • Profile-changing technology in applicable fixed-and-operable combinations

Casement + awning windows

For rooms that call for outward-opening operation, Fenstür’s 78 mm casement and awning platform provides a clean alternative. Casements are side-hinged; awnings are top-hinged.

  • Side-hinged casement or top-hinged awning operation
  • 78 mm all-wood or wood-aluminum-clad construction
  • Multipoint locking with continuous perimeter seals

01

Why wood

A structural material that belongs in the finished room.

Wood provides strength, insulation and a tactile interior surface in one material. Species and finish can reinforce the architecture rather than making every opening look interchangeable, while engineered components help deliver the consistency expected from a modern window system.

  • Warm, genuine material at the interior
  • Clear, stained, painted and custom-matched finish options
  • Species selected for grain, colour and project character
  • Repairable and refinishable surfaces when properly maintained
02

Compared thoughtfully

Value is the complete installed product—not only its purchase price.

When comparing Canadian-made windows with imported systems or conventional North American wood windows, consider operation, tested configuration, glass, finish, delivery, installation details and long-term support together. A lower initial price or impressive centre-of-glass number does not describe the whole window or the full project experience.

  • Compare whole-window values where available
  • Confirm the tested size and configuration—not only a product-family claim
  • Include freight, brokerage, site handling and installation coordination
  • Ask how future hardware, glass and finish questions will be supported
03

Built here · Supported across North America

Canadian manufacturing keeps decisions connected.

Drawings, openings, finishes and performance goals can change as a project develops. Working with the manufacturing team in British Columbia creates a direct path for technical review and coordination for projects in both Canada and the United States.

  • North American dimensions and project communication
  • Factory finish samples and colour coordination
  • Delivery planning based on project location and access
  • Ongoing product knowledge after installation
04

A coordinated whole-home package

Match the windows, lift-and-slide doors and interior doors.

Fenstür can supply more than individual windows. Large Climatech or Imago lift-and-slide systems, custom entry doors and Fenstür-manufactured interior doors can be coordinated with the window package so wood species, stains, paint colours and design details carry through the home.

  • Tilt-and-turn, picture, casement and awning windows
  • Climatech and Imago lift-and-slide door systems
  • Custom entry and swinging exterior doors
  • Matching Fenstür-manufactured interior door packages
  • Coordinated wood species, colours and factory finishes
05

Start well

Bring the openings into the design conversation early.

The best window decisions happen before sizes, sill conditions and interior clearances are fixed. Fenstür can review drawings with homeowners, builders, architects and energy consultants to align the product family, glass, finish and installation approach with the project.

  • Share plans, elevations or a preliminary window schedule
  • Identify the project location and exposure
  • Note Passive House, Net Zero or other energy targets
  • Discuss operation, views, interior clearances and finish preferences

Does Fenstür ship custom wood windows outside British Columbia?
