Solid Wood Window Components

If you can dream it, we can help you make it. With a highly skilled engineering staff and more than 30 wood species, Quanex provides moldings for virtually every wood part of a window system, including wood window jambs, wood window sashes and glazing stop profiles, wood window stiles and rails, wood window frames, wood window grilles, and bow/bay roof skirts. Everything we make is held to our tight, exacting manufacturing tolerances, helping you ensure long-term quality your customers can count on.

And with the help of our Mounds View, Minn., facility, we offer OEMs a complete, custom, ready-to-assemble window unit, including removable or tape-applied grilles.
