Wood Types – Architect Series Hung Window

Architect Series hung windows are the only Pella hung windows available in four different wood types to complement other wood design elements in your project. All wood types are treated with Pella's EnduraGuard^® wood protection for beauty and performance ... year after year.

Pine

Douglas Fir

Alder

Mahogany

Pella's EnduraGuard^® wood protection formula has three active ingredients. This powerful combination, together with our immersion-treatment method, helps ensure strong protection on every exterior wood surface of our products. The result is advanced protection against the effects of moisture, decay and stains from mold and mildew.

Because we're always working to further refine our products and develop new ones, specifications may change without notice.

NOTE: Wood is a product of nature; grain pattern will be unique and may vary on each window or door. Actual finish colors may vary from those shown because of the unique nature of wood.

Interior Finishes – Architect Series Hung Window

Interior finish options include unfinished (ready for site finishing), primed, prefinished paint* and prefinished stain*.

Unfinished Interiors

Integrated Light Technology^® Grilles
Grilles-between-the-glass
Removable Interior Grilles

Integral Light Technology^® (ILT) Grilles

Combine the historical look of true divided lights with today's energy efficiency, structural integrity and water-resistant performance.

Grilles are adhered to the outside of the glass - wood on the interior and aluminum on the exterior.
Between-the-glass nonglare foam spacers, which are aligned with the interior and exterior grilles, replicate the appearance of true divided lights - and offer thermal performance vastly superior to metal spacers.
Grilles have been approved the National Park Service on a project-by-project basis for use on historic projects involving federal tax credits.
