Using modern tooling, the Barrymore TG is manufactured from traditional sash and case sections modified for superior thermal and operational performance, and can be supplied with interior and exterior muntin bars to match a wide variety of configurations.
The traditional construction and appearance of this window make it ideal for restoration work (or new buildings), especially in heritage designations where historically accurate replacements are required for existing sash and case windows, but increased R-value, soundproofing, and enhanced security are desired.
