Contemporary Idea Book

Stile + Style

With more visible glass than a classic French stile, our narrow stile door significantly increases the daylight opening to create a clean, contemporary look.

Mix + Match

Streamline your design with contemporary finishes, or let understated colors be the showstopper. Go bold with a textured black exterior or a painted black interior.* Highlight your views with a low profile 90-degree corner window or a sprawling 20-foot multi-slide door. Our product combinations are nearly endless...

• Take a daring approach with white interiors and hardware that serve as strong accents against other colors.
• Choose black finishes for a powerful contrast to lighter colors in a modern design, or an inviting, seamless complement to darker shades.
• Create a hint of drama and elegance in any door or window by incorporating bronze or black into your palette.
• Add a sense of lightness to your home with satin nickel.
• Brighten things up with brushed chrome, which offers a lighter luster than satin nickel while maintaining a subtle look.
• Make your hardware stand out from its surroundings with the brilliant sheen of polished chrome. 

One-of-a-kind Configurations
