5900 | Single Hung Aluminum Window

Rated Single Hung Window: AAMA LC-50 rated single hung window.

2 3/8" Thermally Broken Frame Depth: We use a thermally broken frame and sash for improved thermal efficiency.

Polyethylene Seal Pads: Gerkin ensures a tight fit at all sash and frame corners to seal out light, air, and water.

Integral Nail Fin: Nail fins are a standard feature for this window. The corners are closed which allows for full perimeter flashing. As an option, Gerkin can remove the nail fin for masonry or sub-frame installations.

Easy Tilt-in Sash: The operating sash uses attractive flush mount tilt latches for easy cleaning.

Self-latching Lock at Sill: For safety and convenience, the operating sash locks automatically at the sill when closed. The latches are concealed from plain sight and are easily activated by lifting up on the spring-loaded latches.

Sloped Sill: This feature eliminates the need for weeps under the sash. Air infiltration performance is enhanced due to this feature.

Smooth Block and Tackle Balance System: The block and tackle balance is one of the most reliable and long lasting balances available. This balance allows for an easy operation at all operating positions.

Mullion Interlock: The use of a mullion interlock helps to reduce deflection and creates a snug fit. The structure of the window is enhanced and air infiltration is reduced.

Dual Weatherstripping: This window features heavy wool pile weatherstripping with a Mylar fin on two locations of the sash. A bulb seal at the sill and interlock seals make this window one of the tightest single hungs available.

5/8" Double Strength Glass: We insulate our own glass and offer a twenty year seal warranty as well as a one year stress crack warranty. With the use of the Super Spacer® warm edges spacer system, we ensurea long seal life and thermal efficient glass. Standard glass options are LoÉ3, bronze and gray tint, obscure, and tempered. Internal glass grilles are also a standard option. Special order glass options are available.

Extruded Aluminum Screen Frames: The strength of extruded screens is a major maintenance cost advantage for Gerkin over easily damaged roll form screens.

Standard Options: We offer complete sub-frame and panning systems, snap trims, sill flashing, stacking frames, stacking "H" channel, structural mulls, mull covers and factory applied extension jambs.

Other Options: We offer insulated panels as well as a louver system with a blank-off panel for PTAC units. This unit can be incorporated into our Rhino window system and used in conjunction with any Rhino window.
