The A250 series, including A250 Thermally Improved Aluminum Windows and A250 Thermally Improved Aluminum Doors, represents a perfect fusion of aluminum strength and advanced thermal break technology. At its core, the series utilizes a sophisticated thermal break system that significantly reduces heat transfer, making it an excellent choice for energy-conscious consumers. The product range includes casement, awning, single-hung, horizontal slider window styles, and more, complemented by sliding and swinging patio door configurations. While the series comes standard in a few finishes, custom powder coat colors may be available to match any architectural requirement.

The technical prowess of the A250 series is evident in its meeting of AAMA specifications for coating performance and enhanced condensation resistance. The hardware options ensure durability and smooth operation, while weatherstripping layers provide superior air infiltration resistance.

Milgard Product Lines - Windows Only

Milgard offers a specialized product line for homeowners seeking affordable window solutions if style matching is not a significant priority. The V250 Style Line Series stands alone in this category, providing an ideal balance of performance and value while maintaining Milgard's commitment to quality craftsmanship. This collection is precisely engineered to meet the demands of both new construction and replacement projects where doors are not part of the immediate requirements.

V250 Style Line Series

The V250 Style Line Window Series delivers exceptional value while maintaining Milgard's high standards for quality and performance.

The series offers eight exterior color options with color-matched hardware in single-hung, horizontal slider, picture, radius styles, and more.

We always recommend the SunCoat® Low-E and dual-pane insulating glass units, ensuring excellent energy efficiency. The positive action locking system provides security and peace of mind. Like all Milgard products, the V250 series is backed by a lifetime limited warranty.
