When architects want to make a statement of timeless elegance in luxury homes, they may specify steel windows and doors. The history of steel goes back thousands of years. Buildings with steel windows may be hundreds of years old. Today, with advancements in glazing, coatings, and sustainability, steel windows and doors are seeing surging popularity in upscale homes. As we’ll see in this course, steel windows and doors often help architects stand out and give homeowners the distinctive look and superior performance they desire.
