Frequently Asked Questions
The ES-VL2000 is a value-tier uPVC horizontal-roller (sliding) window in ES Windows's Multimax line, where a sash slides sideways to open in OX configurations. It is a 2-rail system with a 3-1/4 inch frame depth, a slim 2-1/4 inch sight line, and a 3/4 inch sill height, designed for 3/4 inch insulating glass. It ships pre-assembled and pre-glazed in a white finish, which keeps it economical for budget-driven work.
No. The ES-VL2000 is a non-impact (NI) window and is not approved for Florida's High-Velocity Hurricane Zone, so we don't install it where an HVHZ-rated unit is required by code. For a hurricane-rated horizontal slider in Miami-Dade or Broward, we'll point you to the impact-rated Multimax ES-MX2000 sliding window instead. We confirm what your jurisdiction requires before quoting.
Because the ES-VL2000 is a non-impact uPVC roller, it fits non-code-critical or non-HVHZ openings rather than the wind-borne-debris zones that govern most South Florida coastal installations. Its uPVC frame resists humidity and corrosion well, which is a plus in our climate. Where impact code applies, we recommend the impact-rated ES-MX2000 sliding window as the alternative.
The ES-VL2000 is available in OX configurations on its 2-rail sliding system, with flush and nail-fin frame options to suit different installation details. It comes in a white finish and arrives pre-assembled and pre-glazed. We'll confirm the configuration and frame option that fit your opening when we measure.
The ES-VL2000 is designed for 3/4 inch insulating glass within its 3-1/4 inch deep uPVC frame, with a slim 2-1/4 inch sight line. As a non-impact unit, its insulating glass is not a substitute for an HVHZ impact assembly. If you want both energy efficiency and storm protection, we'll review the impact-rated Multimax sliders with Low-E glass packages.
Installed pricing for the ES-VL2000 depends on the window size, the frame option, the glass, and the condition of the existing opening, so there is no single price. As a value-tier non-impact uPVC slider it is one of the more economical options, but it cannot be used where impact code applies. Armor Pro will measure your openings, confirm whether a non-impact unit is permitted, and give you a free, no-obligation estimate.
Yes. Multimax is ES Windows's value-tier aluminum impact line, but it carries dual large-missile and small-missile certification across the catalog and publishes current Miami-Dade NOAs, so it is genuinely HVHZ-eligible. It is not a de-rated product; some models actually post very high design pressures, such as the MX1500 fixed window rated to 140 psf negative. We confirm the rating against each opening before ordering.
Small-missile impact (SMI) certification is what qualifies a window for installations above roughly thirty feet, where the design assumes smaller wind-borne debris at height. Most value-priced lines cannot go on mid- and high-rise openings, but Multimax can, which makes it useful on low-rise condo and multifamily work as well as budget single-family jobs. We check the building height and exposure to confirm the SMI configuration applies.
ES Windows is the residential and light-commercial fenestration brand of Tecnoglass Inc. (NYSE: TGLS), and the products are manufactured at the company's complex in Barranquilla, Colombia. What makes the brand unusual is that the parent makes its own architectural glass and aluminum extrusions and then assembles the finished windows and doors in-house, so a single company stands behind the whole assembly rather than buying glass and frames from outside suppliers. We install and service ES Windows products throughout South Florida.
