Tradition with a future: historic window profiles for wooden HBI windows
HBI’s wooden historic replication windows cleverly combine the faithful reproduction of original windows and doors with state-of-the-art technology and functionality. There’s no better way to ensure a modernization will leave your house as attractive as ever, but better equipped for the future.
Narrow sightlines for a wide variety
HBI historic window profiles can provide the narrow sightlines required to construct arches, basket arch windows or segmental arch windows that are visually indistinguishable from the historic originals. Weather drip bars serve as a historic detail for shedding water and also protect your historic windows from wind-driven rain.
Natural materials with state-of-the-art technology
HBI makes all its historic replication windows out of natural woods such as pine, larch, oak or meranti. Its historic window profiles may be narrow, but they still pack a punch in terms of technology and functionality: wooden HBI windows meet the latest standards for thermal insulation, airtightness and resistance to driving rain – not to mention historic preservation regulations.
Numerous options for perfect replications
One thing is indispensable for a faithful reconstruction of historic windows: HBI’s extensive range of accessories. It is impossible to perfectly replicate the minutiae of different architectural styles or historical periods without a large and varied selection of trims, capitals, muntins and mullions. That is the only way to custom-design solutions that visually, but not technically, reproduce the original versions down to the smallest detail.
From design to installation: HBI is there
For most homeowners, restorations are projects that demand a lot of time, knowledge and fortitude. Every step is a challenge, starting with the initial planning and communications with the historic preservation board with all its laws and regulations. Luckily, you can hand all this work off to HBI. Your end product: a faithful modernization, beautiful replication windows to enjoy and far less anger, annoyance and anxiety.
A large selection of different capitals, trim types, true and exterior muntins allow you to reconstruct windows in old, historical styles.
