PARKER COUNTY WINDOWS OFFERS PROFESSIONAL DOOR, WINDOW AND HARDWARE SOLUTIONS!
INSULATED GLASS UNITS
Insulated Glass Units (IGUs) are dual, triple and quadruple-pane windows sealed together with a space in between, often filled with gas, to improve energy efficiency. They help reduce heat loss, block outside noise, and prevent condensation, making your home more comfortable and cost-efficient.
WINDOW REPLACEMENT
Window replacement begins with the removal of old or damaged windows, ensuring the surrounding structure remains intact. The openings are prepped, and new windows are securely installed with proper sealing to prevent drafts and leaks. Once in place, finish work is completed for a polished look, and all debris is cleared away, leaving you with windows that enhance comfort, efficiency, and security.
INSECT AND SOLAR SCREENS
Insect screens provide a protective barrier to keep bugs out while allowing fresh air to flow through your home. Solar screens go a step further by blocking heat and harmful UV rays, reducing glare, and improving energy efficiency. Both options are custom-fitted for doors and windows, enhancing comfort while maintaining visibility and ventilation.
DOOR REPLACEMENT
Door replacement with a new frame involves removing the existing door and frame, ensuring the opening is properly prepped for a secure fit. A new pre-hung door and frame are installed, aligned, and sealed to prevent drafts, improve security, and enhance aesthetics. Final adjustments ensure smooth operation, and trim work is completed for a clean, finished look.
WINDOW HARDWARE
Locks secure your windows, offering safety with options like cam locks or sash locks. The sash, the movable part of the window, glides smoothly thanks to balances—springs or weights that support operation. Weather stripping seals gaps, boosting energy efficiency. Additional components like hinges, operators, and tracks ensure seamless performance for your windows.

HELPFUL TIPS & INFO
MEASURING WINDOW FOR GLASS REPLACEMENT
Measure the Width & Height: Visible glass width and height. No measuring tape? Use a 8.5x11 piece of paper or use a shoe, if you have exterior brick, each brick measures roughly 3 inches, multiply the amount of bricks by 3 and note the width and height.
Determine the Thickness: If unsure, describe the window type either single or double pane(Insulated Glass Unit) and frame material (vinyl, aluminum, or wood) for guidance.
Check for Special Features: Note if the glass is clear, tinted, frosted, or has grids between the panes. Mention any coatings like Low-E for energy efficiency.

WINDOW NOT STAYING OPEN?
Window balances: hidden mechanisms inside your window frames that help you open and close your windows smoothly. If your window is hard to lift or won’t stay open, your balances may need to be replaced.
Types of Window Balances: Channel Balances (Block & Tackle): Found in non-tilt windows, have a metal or plastic channel with a spring inside.
Spiral Balances: A tube with a coil inside that provides tension, commonly used in tilt windows. They have a small color-coded tip for weight capacity.
Constant Force Balances: These use a coiled spring, are often found in newer windows.
Side-Load/Tilt Balances: These have a specific clip or shoe at the end that attaches to the window, allowing it to tilt inward.
How to Identify Your Window Balance for Replacement:
Check for Stamps or Numbers: Most balances have a printed or engraved number that indicates weight and size.
Measure the Length & Width: Measure the length of the metal channel or tube (excluding any plastic ends).
Look at the End Fittings: Different balances have unique end caps, clips, or shoes that must match your replacement.
