Simonton's slim-frame collection. A narrow 2-7/8″ frame means up to 40% more daylight, wider views, and a clean contemporary look — backed by a lifetime limited warranty and expertly installed across the Puget Sound.
DaylightMax is engineered around one idea: more glass. Its slim 2-7/8″ frame trims away the bulky vinyl other windows hide behind, opening up the viewing area and pouring natural light into every room. Brighter spaces, bigger views, and a clean modern profile that disappears into the architecture.
DaylightMax comes in nine window styles, so you can carry the same narrow-frame look and natural light from the living room to the bath, the kitchen, and beyond.
Fixed top sash with a bottom sash that lifts open and tilts in for easy cleaning.
Sash glides horizontally left or right — with the Good Housekeeping Seal and AutoSense™ lock.
Hinged on the side, the sash cranks open outward for full top-to-bottom ventilation.
Hinged at the top, it cranks out and up — perfect for fresh air, even in light rain.
Fixed, non-opening glass that shows off the slim frame and the view in spaces large or small.
A combination of three or more windows that angle outward to add dimension and light.
Several windows in a gentle curve that softly projects outward for a graceful, panoramic feel.
Projects outward to create a sunny shelf for plants, herbs, or décor — ideal over a sink.
Also available in specialty shapes — circular, arched, and linear designs built to your home.
No other window we carry is protected like DaylightMax. It's backed by Simonton's Lifetime Limited Warranty: vinyl, hardware, and glass are covered for as long as you own your home — and that coverage transfers to the next homeowner for a true "double lifetime" of peace of mind, including accidental glass breakage. That protection is a big reason DaylightMax is one of our top recommended best buys.
