About the WinGuard Vinyl Series
WinGuard Vinyl is the line Armor Pro installs most often on standard South Florida residential replacements, for a straightforward reason: it is impact-rated for the HVHZ, it costs less installed than the aluminum line, and the welded vinyl frame shrugs off salt air without ever needing paint. For the typical opening (a single hung in a bedroom, a roller off the kitchen, a picture unit in the living room) vinyl carries the load the code asks for while running tighter thermally than aluminum, so a homeowner replacing a whole house in Miami-Dade or Broward gets storm protection and a lower energy bill in one product.
The line spans nine operation styles on a common 3-1/2 inch welded frame, all glazed with PGT's Diamond Glass laminated impact glass, so single hung through sliding and French door mull cleanly into all-vinyl elevations without switching systems. As the best-selling impact vinyl line in the country it also carries a deep approval record, which keeps permitting predictable.
Where WinGuard Vinyl reaches its limit is span and design pressure. Vinyl frames flex sooner than aluminum, so very wide sliding doors, tall two-story glass, and the highest-pressure coastal exposures belong on WinGuard Aluminum instead. Armor Pro specs vinyl for the bulk of a typical home and switches to aluminum for the oversized or highest-load openings, often mixing both on the same project under the WinGuard name.
