Vinyl Construction

# A Closer Look at Vinyl Construction

Aurora Direct windows are made from an exclusive, 100% lead-free uPVC powder compound. This special compound provides our window systems with better resistance to impact and discolouration. It ensures that they will not crack, blister or warp, while remaining maintenance free.

### Sealed Glass Unit

Sealed glass unit has 13/16" overall thickness. Depending on the model, glazing of different types and thicknesses can be applied, including single, double, triple and Low-E glazing as well as a glazed decorative panel (3/4" to 1-1/8").

Exterior Finishing

## Brickmould & Capping

### What is Brickmould?

Brickmould is the exterior molding that covers the gap between your window frame and the exterior wall. Our modern PVC brickmould is attached at the factory for a watertight seal.

### Aluminum Capping

For customized applications, irregular openings, or patio doors, we use expert aluminum capping to contour the finish to your specific wall structure.
