PGT WinGaurd Impact Resistant Windows

PGT Industries, an east coast window and door manufacturer, is the creator of WinGuard impact-resistant windows, beautiful windows that protect your home and valuables from unforeseen events. The laminated glass and silicone glazing prevent the glass from breaking off its frame, and the interlayer glass keeps the window intact – even after the first layer is broken from flying objects. These windows are available in Energy Star qualified configurations and are NFRC-certified.
