Black exterior/white interior windows for remodel
Comments (12)@jn3344...your post is so helpful! Thank you!! And I love your home. Gorgeous!!! I'm down to black on black Anderson100 or Marvin Integrity all Ultrex with black exterior and white interior, painted black. But I want to see a painted Ultrex product. It's hard for me to believe I won't be able to take a fingernail across it and scrape it off?. I'm probably borrowing trouble even considering this. I'm not sure if I was quoted incorrectly, but I my Marvin Integrity quote is actually less than the A100 quote (from different seller), which is why I'm considering the paint option. Why are windows so difficult? (And so many more decisions to make)...See MoreWhite windows on a white stucco house.. exterior window trim?

Comments (12)Kolbe Forgent black exterior windows have several white interior options: 1) white Glastra, 2) white factory painted wood, and 3) primed wood. They are also available in several wood species in case you want to stain them. Their wood interiors are an over-layment that attaches to the fiberglass interior, so the wood is not exposed to the elements outside. I just installed black exterior/white wood interior windows 6 months ago and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them and would make the same purchase again. The Glastra window frames themselves only come in two colors: white and tan (Sahara). Then, if you want black or bronze, they paint a very nice and durable coating over the white or tan Glastra/fiberglass window frames. On the outside, the entire frame is coated. On the inside, there is a portion of the frame that is uncoated, so you will see a difference between the bronze/black and the white or tan frame. (I am speaking only about casement windows and can't speak to what they do on other window types.) See photos below....See Morebest white trim for exterior windows
Comments (4)Thank you for your replies. Don’t really have a picture of the house because is still being framed. Trying to get an architectural drawing on here but not letting me upload for now. Cat_ky, the windows are really a dark brown rather than bronze and I think it should be ok with granite peak since I believe brown and blue are complimentary colors. The house style is more or less craftsman there is a front porch with columns that we will stain medium brown. The granite peak will be on upper level siding and sand color stucco on lower level....See MoreUser
