Moinlenqnce-Free Windows, Doors

The most maintenance-free windows and gliding doors ever produced, to be marketed under the name Perma-Shield, have been announced by Andersen Corporation.

Perma-Shield is produced by special methods of applying rigid vinyl over the sur{aces of wood window sash and the exterior surfaces of the frames. On gliding doors, both the exterior and interior surfaces of the door panels and frames are covered.

Perma-Shield sash is produced by a patented process for extruding rigid vinyl directly over a preservative treated wood core. Mitered corners are completely sealed by a special u'elding pt'ocess.

Protection is applied to exterior surfaces of window frames by bonding ple-formed rigid vinyl to the wood with a special adhesive. The pre-formed vinyl coating eliminates joints at the corners of frames. The interior trim is not coated, to preserve the natural beauty of wood.
