Frequently Asked Questions

The PW4120A is PGT's Sparta value-tier aluminum impact fixed picture window, built for a clear, uninterrupted view since it doesn't open. It offers an integral nail-fin frame option for new-construction installations and is often paired with operable Sparta windows to fill a larger wall opening. We install it in South Florida HVHZ projects that need a code-compliant impact picture window on a budget.

Yes, the PW4120A is LMI impact-rated and HVHZ-approved, built with impact-resistant glass so it qualifies for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone in Miami-Dade and Broward. If you're outside the HVHZ and don't need impact glazing, PGT's non-impact counterpart is the Scout PW4020A. We'll confirm which one your jurisdiction and opening require at quote.

The PW4120A picture window is sized up to about 32 square feet of glass, from a minimum of roughly 11 by 14.5 inches, and carries a design pressure of +55/-65 psf. Because it's a fixed impact unit, the area limit keeps the laminated glass within its tested rating. We'll lay out the size and confirm the design pressure for your opening when we quote.

The PW4120A uses PGT's Energy Shield Max impact glass on a 5/16-inch PVB interlayer, with a U-factor of 1.01 to 1.02 and an SHGC of 0.28 to 0.30 depending on whether grids are added, plus a condensation resistance rating of 12. The laminated impact makeup also helps quiet outside noise. For a sun-facing wall, the lower-SHGC option keeps heat gain down, and we'll go over the choices at quote.

The PW4120A comes in two standard finishes, White and Bronze, to match the rest of your Sparta windows and doors. For a decorative look it offers a 1-inch flat grid. We coordinate the finish and grid across all of your impact windows so the fixed picture unit blends with the operable ones.

There's no flat price, because the installed cost depends on the size, the glass package and grid you choose, the finish, and the condition of the opening. The integral nail-fin frame option for new construction also affects how the unit ties into the wall and the labor involved. Armor Pro gives a free, no-obligation estimate; we'll measure the opening and price the PW4120A for your project.

Yes. Sparta is PGT's value-tier aluminum impact line, large-missile impact-rated and eligible for the High-Velocity Hurricane Zone in Miami-Dade and Broward. The glass is the same laminated impact glass the premium lines use, and the approvals are real — the line simply trims the premium sizes, finishes, and high-pressure configurations to hit a lower price. The exact rating depends on the opening, which we confirm on the quote.

What you give up with Sparta is range, not code compliance. Sparta covers the core operation styles — single hung, horizontal roller, picture, architectural shapes, and a sliding glass door — in white and bronze only, with block-and-tackle balance hardware and a narrower set of sizes and design pressures. WinGuard Aluminum adds more colors, larger sizes, higher pressures, and a broader catalog including casements, awnings, and French doors. We reach for Sparta when impact compliance is required but the budget is the binding constraint.

PGT has built impact windows and doors in Venice, Florida since 1980 and is the largest impact-window and -door manufacturer in the country. It was the first company to develop impact-resistant products that met Miami-Dade County's hurricane code after Hurricane Andrew, and the line is engineered specifically for Florida conditions. PGT is now part of the MITER Brands family, alongside WinDoor, ECO, and NewSouth, but the products are still made in Florida under the PGT name.
