Why Choose StrongLite
StrongLite Architectural – Why Choose Us
Aesthetic Appeal
Steel windows and doors have a distinctive architectural presence—an understated elegance created by remarkably slender frames, expansive glass and beautifully proportioned openings. The inherent strength of steel allows less frame and more glass, bringing abundant natural light into a space while giving the architecture a refined, enduring character.
StrongLite systems are custom made for each project, giving architects and designers exceptional freedom in proportion, configuration, glazing and detailing. From restrained contemporary designs to more traditional and highly detailed architecture, steel offers extraordinary design possibilities. Large openings, graceful proportions and expansive walls of glass can transform both the appearance and experience of a building.
“Good design is obvious, great design is transparent.”
Energy Efficiency
The beauty of expansive glass and fine lines should not come at the expense of comfort or energy performance. StrongLite combines thermally broken steel frames with high-performance insulated glazing to substantially reduce heat transfer through the window and door system.
Low-E and solar-control coatings, insulated dual- and triple-pane glazing options, and multi-stage weather seals can be selected to suit the climate and performance requirements of each project. The result is the architectural character and slender proportions of steel, combined with the thermal performance expected of a modern building envelope.
Quality Assurance
Exceptional architectural products depend on consistency at every stage of manufacturing. StrongLite maintains a disciplined quality-assurance process from incoming materials through fabrication, finishing, glazing and final inspection. Each completed window and door undergoes a comprehensive 70-point inspection before it is approved for shipment.
Our quality program is supported by independent testing and certification to demanding North American performance standards. StrongLite participates in the WDMA Hallmark Certification Program, with ongoing verification helping ensure that certified products continue to meet established requirements. The result is more than quality you can see—it is performance that has been engineered, tested and documented.
“Quality is never an accident; it is always the result of high intention, sincere effort, intelligent direction and skillful execution; it represents the wise choice of many alternatives.”
Customer Service
Great products are only part of a successful project. StrongLite believes that responsive communication, knowledgeable support and careful coordination are equally important. From the first conversation, our team works to understand the architectural vision, performance requirements, schedule and budget of each project.
We work closely with architects, builders, developers and project owners throughout design development, ordering, production and delivery, providing technical information and assistance when it is needed. And our relationship does not end when the products arrive—we remain available for installation coordination, warranty service and ongoing support. Our goal is simple: to be as dependable to work with as the products we manufacture.
Safety & Security
Security begins with the inherent strength of the building envelope. StrongLite steel windows and doors combine robust steel frames with quality hardware and multi-point locking systems to provide a formidable first line of protection while maintaining the slender profiles and architectural elegance that distinguish our products.
Where a project requires additional protection, StrongLite systems can incorporate impact-resistant glazing and other security options appropriate to the application. The result is a window and door system designed to provide strength, security and peace of mind without making a home or building feel fortified.
Sustainable Practices
Sustainability begins with products designed to perform well and endure. Steel is highly recyclable and can be repeatedly recovered and reused, while its exceptional strength allows slender frames that maximize glass and natural light with relatively little framing material. StrongLite’s thermally broken construction and high-performance glazing also help reduce the energy required to heat and cool buildings throughout their service life.
We work to reduce waste throughout our manufacturing operations by recycling steel and other recoverable materials wherever practical and by continually improving the efficiency of our production processes. For StrongLite, responsible manufacturing means considering not only how a product is made, but how well it performs, how long it lasts and what happens to its materials at the end of its useful life.
“Sustainability is no longer about doing less harm, it’s about doing more good.”
