You may find that, due to normal wear and tear, weather damage, or poor installation, there will come a time when you’ll need new windows and doors. While many homeowners and builders opt for vinyl these days, there is a strong case to be made for wood windows and wood doors.

Here are Bavarian’s top reasons to buy wood windows and doors:

Aesthetic Appeal

If there is one definitive thing you can say about wood doors and wood windows, it’s that they look fantastic. The timeless and beautiful appearance of wood will instantly boost the aesthetics of your home. A natural material, wood has a uniqueness that can’t be matched by manmade materials. Wood has classic elegance and modern style, and is available in a variety of shapes, sizes, and finishes for a truly custom look. Finished with furniture grade joinery and millwork, your windows and doors will look beautiful.

Increases Curb Appeal

It’s no secret that realtors take great measures to boost a home’s curb appeal. In the real estate world, first impressions make a huge difference and when you have high-quality wood doors and windows installed, the curb appeal and value of your home will increase. At Bavarian, we carry wood doors and windows that have a low profile, which means that their contemporary styling will fit into modern and minimalistic designs.

Maintenance-Free

People often think that having wood requires ongoing maintenance, but this is not the case. Wood doors and windows are made differently (AKA better) than decades ago, and now your wood can be maintenance-free with a prefinished extruded aluminum exterior. Ask our team for all the details.

Available In A Variety of Options

When you install wood doors and wood windows in your home, you will have a range of options to choose from including a wide variety of colours (paint or stain), flexible designs, folding door systems, lift-and-slide systems, wood clad doors, and more. Wood is also typically available in larger sizes than vinyl, giving you even more options.

Can Match Internal Wood Surfaces

If you have wooden floors, tables, and chairs, bookcases, or other furniture inside your home, your wood doors and windows can be customized to match or complement what’s already there. Prefinished interiors can be painted or stained and are available in standard and custom colours to match any interior. Customizing your finish will help to create a nice visual flow and harmony both in individual rooms and throughout the house.

Reduced Carbon Footprint

Wood is a great choice if you are looking to reduce your carbon footprint. Wood uses less energy in its production than most other building materials, it will help to boost your home’s energy efficiency, and it is also quite durable when taken care of properly — which means you shouldn’t have to replace your windows or doors as frequently as other product types.

Bavarian is proud to provide high-quality installation and replacement for wood windows and doors using LePage products, because of their unmatched quality and durability.
