Andersen has many window series options so if you’re set on Andersen windows for your home you shouldn’t have any problems finding the right one. In this article, we’ll go over the features of Andersen’s A-Series. You can expect to find the following information in this blog post:

Style and Beauty
Value and Delivery
This series uses solid wood for the interior window sash and frames. Fiberglass and Fibrex material are used for the exterior sash.
Andersen’s A-Series windows can be used for new construction or in replacement projects.
Windows are available up to 4’ wide and 8’ high. Custom sizes are also available in 1/8” increments.
The A-Series is Andersen’s best performing energy efficient window. The windows in this series have been recognized by ENERGY STAR as some of the most efficient residential window models available in the U.S. and Canada.
A-Series windows are available in four popular styles and also 34 specialty shapes.
Awning + Casement + Double-Hung + Picture + Specialty
Grilles, or grids, give your window a more traditional look. Before technology made creating large panes of glass a possibility, glass for windows was made in small individual pieces that were joined together by window grilles. Glass now is made in large sheets and grilles are an aesthetic touch.
Andersen offers grille patterns to match popular architectural styles as well as custom patterns. They also offer four options for grille types:
Full Divided Light
Simulated Divided Light
Removable Interior Grille
Finelight Grilles Between-the-Glass
Andersen offers its highest performing glass packages for this series including Low-E4 and Triple-Pane glass.
Hardware Finishes
Hardware for Awning and Casement Windows
Hardware options for awning and casement windows include traditional folding hardware and contemporary folding hardware. Andersen also offers a window opening control device kit that limits how far the sash will open.
Hardware for Double-hung Window
The standard option for a double-hung window is a Lock and Keeper. Andersen also offers a traditional hand lift, bar lift, and finger lifts as well as a contemporary bar lift.
A tilt sash option isn’t available on all windows but it is available as an option for the Double-hung window in the A-Series.
Andersen calls this feature the “Easy Tilt-to-Clean” because that is precisely what a tilt sash is and does. The sash is the part of the window that holds the glass in the frame and on double-hung. In other words, it’s the part that moves up and down when you open the window. On a tilt sash, that part can unlatch from the frame and swing-down so that cleaning the window glass doesn’t involve having to go outside.
Andersen offers 11 color options for the exterior of the products in the A Series. The great thing about the color options on this series is that you’re not limited to just one color. You are able to customize the look of your window to fit your house even more by combining different colors for the sash, frame, and trim.
With the A-Series you have several options in wood species, interior stains and paint colors.
