Building An ULTRA Modern House? Check out these Windows & Doors!

I found your coffee cup analogy very helpful. Thanks!

Story about aluminum windows that don't have a thermal break. I bought my first house in 2010 in central Virginia. The porch was 10 foot wide and under the roof of the house. The house was about 10 years old. There were two windows that look out onto the porch and both had water damage on the inside bottom sill. It was almost impossible for the rain to reach those windows because of how back they were from the roof edge. We bought the house and figured the water damage had to be from something the previous owners had done, like setting cold drinks in the window sill and the condensation causing the water damage. What we found is that the water damage was from condensation, but it wasn't from cold drinks. The aluminum windows were double pane insulated, but there wasn't a thermal break in the aluminum frame. During the cold winter months the window frames would get so cold that water would condense on the inside of the aluminum frame and then pool in the window sill. This cold weather condensation is what was causing the water damage. During one particularly cold spell we actually had frost on the inside of the aluminum window frame.

the new graphics package and explainer video insert was great!

While Matt has provided a ton of material in building-related stuff, he is very much driven now by sponsors and ad-driven coverage. Having just watched several videos from a young husband/wife team build their beautiful garage/apartment in Pennsylvania, I find a really enjoy the personal owner experience more than that of a business where advertising is driving the content.

I need to check these windows out on our rebuild in DALLAS.... THANKS FOR THE GREAT VID AGAIN !!!

Hey Matt ... been watching & appreciating the "Build Show" for years, as I wait to build our home out here in WA State! But just going to say that your new mustache could almost be considered a "thermal break," my brotha'!!! :)

PLEASE do a video on how you became comfortable with that roof design. I never thought I'd see it!

Amazing windows

We are selling a ton of these in Washington DC area. Thanks for the video. Will help us sell more!

Matt, this is a great product to keep an eye on. It would be nice to get a little deeper frames to accept Litezone glazing. I haven’t been able to get them out of my head since the Real Rebuild project.

Pretty cool having that view from the Master Bedroom.

I want a double double window in a concrete wall so there 2 columns in the middle 1 on each end a space between the middle and a box on either side then do the flower boxes to conceal the completely flat entrance and privacy on the windows with plants that reduce heating as well

I'd want them on my house!

All you have to do is build a front porch with columns so instead of the 1-2ft over hang you bridge the gap from the building to a span off the front of the building and then it get bolted to the wall of the house or just not finish the windows or doorway and have a second finished wall under a balcony instead of knee wall for window you put flower beds in front and the space between them is a literal gap in the structure like a hallway

The beading facing outwards is perfect for thieves

Exterior beading, I thought we moved way from this years ago, due to thieves could just pop the beading off, remove the glazing and enter your home very quietly.

Why do both of you have tight pants?!! 😂 Great video btw!

How do these compare in cost to Western windows & doors?

🤙

I’d love to know is where the price tag on these windows because some of these windows are indoors are just absolutely ludicrous pricewise they’re beautiful but you know when you’re talking $500 a foot for a patio door plus install really
