For nearly 50 years, Fleetwood Windows & Doors has been committed to manufacturing high quality, custom luxury windows and luxury doors, proudly made in the USA. Our dedication to high standards has made us a leader in the modern style luxury home market, and especially to those concerned with green, sustainable development.
Our continued focus on minimalist, modern innovation keeps our products in the forefront of contemporary architecture and technology, while retaining the simplicity of low-maintenance. From huge sliding door panels to automated pocket doors, hidden thresholds to coastal weather performance, huge window-walls to moving walls of multislide panels, curved fixed windows to bent sliding doors, energy efficient windows and doors to custom anodized and custom painted finishes - we offer it all!
The Norwood 3070 family of sliding doors was designed for homes demanding the finest multislide doors and pocket doors available. Our Patent Pending Archetype Hardware and Mammoth rollers with Swiss precision bearings provide outstanding performance. LARGE sliding and pocket doors, curved/bent sliding panels,vinyl replacement windows custom configurations, and 90 degree corners are just some of the options that make these Fleetwood products top of the line.
The Norwood 3070-CR has the features offered by the 3070-EX but with even greater energy efficiency! The thermally broken panels of the 3070-CR give it exceptional energy advantages over the non thermally broken 3070-EX.
Fleetwood Windows & Doors is continually making efforts to be "Green Friendly" and currently leads the fenestration market with the Greenest multi-slide and sliding pocket doors in the United States. Our aluminum products are manufactured using recycled aluminum and glass and offered in inert coatings and finishes. To further promote global sensitivity, 100% of our aluminum scrap is recycled.
Fleetwood's windows & doors are designed to be the epitome of luxury as well as extremely energy efficient. We are proud of our NFRC and AAMA ratings and certifications. Fleetwood windows or doors are a great feature for use in your next LEED project or any home striving to be energy efficient! In fact, Fleetwood is the "Leeder" in providing LEED certified homes with green friendly windows and doors.
We are proud of our 50 year history
as a California based window and door manufacturer. In a time when others are making products in foreign countries, Fleetwood remains true to its essential purpose as an American company, employing American workers making quality products.
We believe we are helping support the American dream
of success by relying upon God and this country's ingenuity and work ethic, which has made the United States of America the greatest country on the planet. Our focus is to innovate, not imitate. You will discover that we continue to blaze a trail of top quality and innovative designs, like our Patent Pending "Archetype" door latch system.
We appreciate the amount of time it takes to properly research
doors and windows. We believe you will discover that Fleetwood offers much more value than any other window and door company. If possible, visit our factory or a dealer showroom. Once you have operated one of our life size doors (the bigger the better!) you will understand our reputation.
One of the nice things about being earth sensitive is that you benefit too!
Sustainable Vs. Green:
Wood windows and doors, which are prevalent in luxury homes, are commonly touted as "green" products. Although wood is technically green, don't be misled - wood is only sustainable if harvested in compliance with a sustainable forest plan. On the other hand, aluminum is an abundant and sustainably harvested resource. In fact, about 8% of the earth's crust consists of aluminum bauxite. This bountiful supply exceeds global demands and because of its recyclable nature, aluminum is the material for the next century. Additionally, 94% of the world's supply of bauxite is mined in non-forested regions, minimizing global environmental impact.
Lasts Longer:
All windows and doors eventually must be replaced BUT aluminum windows and doors last decades longer than wood and vinyl. Consider the impact on the world's landfills with all the wood and vinyl waste. As well, imagine the wasted energy on redundant manufacturing of short-lived wood and vinyl windows and doors.
Inert Coatings & Finishes:
We offer two types of finishes on our aluminum windows and doors: paint and anodizing. Both processes result in environmentally safe products that do not require refinishing. Because Fleetwood products are factory finished for life, you need only keep them clean. Can you imagine how much toxic waste would be prevented if everyone chose aluminum? See the inside cover of our brochure for more information about painting and anodizing.
Avoid VOCs:
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are chemical compounds that outgas from many materials and can pollute the air in your home. Since Fleetwood's painted finishes are factory cured at 400 degrees Fahrenheit, these compounds are safely removed. Neither wood nor vinyl can provide factory baked coatings.
Friendlier To Firemen:
If a fire were to occur in your home your aluminum would not emit toxic fumes. Other window products incinerate quickly and add to the flames but only windows and doors made from metal will not burn. Also, vinyl products are petroleum based and therefore pose a great fire hazard and emit toxic fumes. In fact, some rural communities prohibit vinyl window products. Remnants Recycled:
Window and door fabrication produces waste destined for landfills. However, as part of our waste minimization strategy, 100% of our aluminum remnants are collected and melted down to make new windows and doors. This saves energy because aluminum production from scrap uses 95% less energy and limits the waste stream.
Recycled Metal:
Every aluminum window and door is made up of components (rollers, latches, weather-stripping...) as well as extrusions and glass. The extrusions are comprised of virgin aluminum and, on average, 40% - 50% of post consumer recycled content to provide the world with products whose supply is nearly unlimited.
In addition to the high percentage of recycled aluminum used on all Fleetwood products, the glass we use comes from vendors who practice waste reduction by recycling remnants and glass scrap for future use. The recycling of glass uses significantly less energy than manufacturing from virgin materials, and also substantially reduces the production of carbon dioxide.
Sustainable Design:
Aluminum is a fantastic building product for those concerned about sustainability. It is naturally plentiful and perpetually surviving (recyclability). Moreover, aluminum rates very high in Life Cycle Assessment and leaves a small ecological footprint.
Simplified Logistics:
Because aluminum is a relatively lightweight building product, we can ship our windows and doors all over the world with little logistical waste. Even better, our windows and doors are created in such a way that far reaching markets can purchase glass locally and avoid the glass transit costs.
