New Construction vs. Replacement
Unlike replacement windows, new construction windows require exposure of the home’s studs during the building process. If you’re undergoing a home remodel project, you can use new construction windows and patio doors if your contractor can remove other materials to expose existing studs. Installers can use nail fin frames for new construction patio doors and windows, nailing them directly into the home’s framing.
Milgard designs each new construction window and patio door to your home’s specifications, allowing you to build boldly.
Getting started with new construction windows and patio doors
No matter where you are in the new build process, here are a few considerations to keep in mind:

Determine your Budget

Understand new construction frame materials
When selecting new construction patio doors and windows, you have several material choices to consider:
FIBERGLASS
Fiberglass is exceptionally strong and durable with a traditional wood profile that’s low maintenance.
VINYL
Vinyl window and door frames are affordable, energy-efficient and corrosion-resistant. Plus, they require little to no maintenance.
ALUMINUM
Aluminum is lightweight, offers a slim profile with narrow sightlines and is easy to maintain.

Consult your architect or contractor
If you’re going through the construction process, you likely already have a contractor. Enlist their expertise or that of your architect when selecting windows and doors to ensure you find the best fit for your home’s style, budget and functionality.
