The trim around your windows is what really sets them apart from the rest of your home and draws your eyes towards their beauty. Whether you’re aiming for a more rustic look or a contemporary one, Renewal by Andersen offers an array of trim options that will make your Dayton home look like a true masterpiece. Here’s a closer look.
If you like the look of natural wood, then one of Renewal by Andersen’s real wood trims may be perfect for your home. Options include:
All real wood interiors can be stained any color you wish to match your home’s woodwork or furniture. Keep in mind that oak is the darkest of these interior trim choices, and pine is the lightest.
If you prefer a smoother finish for a more contemporary look, then perhaps you’d prefer a colored window trim. Options include white, canvas, Sandtone (a pale gray) and Terratone® (a deeper gray with hints of brown.) Many customers who choose colored interior trims like to use the color of their trim as an accent color throughout the room.
Your exterior trim can make a statement, too. Renewal by Andersen offers several eye-catching exterior colors, including:
Check rails are the pieces of trim that reach across the top of the lower panel in a double-hung window. Renewal by Andersen offers two different check rail options for your Dayton home. Contemporary check rails have a rounded edge for a softer, more inviting appeal, whereas traditional check rails are squared off at a 90-degree angle.
If you really want to call more attention to your windows, consider choosing grilles that match your trim. Renewal by Andersen can install grilles inside or outside your window, or even between the two panes of glass. Grilles come in many styles, but the most popular are Colonial, Farmhouse, and Prairie.
Colonial grilles divide the sash into a specific number of equally sized squares – often six. Farmhouse grilles have two vertical bars that divide the window into thirds, and Prairie grilles have two vertical and two horizontal bars to create small squares in each corner. We can also custom-design a grille to meet your needs and match your window trim.
Keep in mind that all of Renewal by Andersen’s window sashes and frames are made from Fibrex®, a wood composite material that does not require any maintenance or painting. Fibrex insulates 700 times better than aluminum, which really helps keep your heating bills in check, and the color fuses to it permanently so you don’t have to worry about chips or scratches.
