With its sophisticated design and detailing, ViewMax Plus prevents water from being pushed or pulled into the building via the vacuum effect that can happen with other systems.

These beautiful structural wood window walls are available with multiple glazing options, achieving U-factors as low as .21.

With a DP 70 rating, ViewMax Plus is ideal for commercial or residential use.

  • All-wood interior.
  • DP 70 rating.
  • Pressure equalized glazing system.
  • Incorporates windows, doors, structural corner units.
  • Commercial or residential applications.

We offer wood interior multi-slide, lift & slide, and bi-fold doors and windows for dramatically expansive openings. You can choose models that slide completely out of sight into a wall pocket, stack against the wall or open up an entire corner.
