Milgard

Milgard windows and patio doors are for homeowners replacing old units or choosing openings for a new home. Tuscany gives you a wider vinyl frame with a traditional look, plus window and door styles that let you handle different rooms within the same line.

Milgard Windows & Doors is an American manufacturer based in Tacoma, Washington. Maurice Milgard Jr. and his son Gary started the company in 1958. It’s now part of MITER Brands, and its windows and patio doors are found throughout the western United States.

Tuscany for a traditional frame and more opening styles

The strongest reason to choose Tuscany is its frame: the wider vinyl profile has equal sightlines and creates shadow lines for a traditional appearance. That’s a useful fit when you want the window frame to have a visible presence alongside traditional trim.

Tuscany also includes double-hung, bay and bow windows, along with sliding and swinging patio doors. You can keep those different openings within the same line. Tuscany is the practical fit when your plan calls for a bay window and a swinging patio door.

Decide where you need ventilation before choosing the window style. Tuscany picture windows provide a fixed view, while its operating styles give you a way to move air. Beside an exterior walkway, its horizontal slider opens without projecting into the walking space.

Glass, finishes and the replacement opening

Tuscany offers SunCoat and SunCoatMAX Low-E options for energy performance. Low-E coatings help control heat transfer through the glass. Compare the glass package for your window configuration and the sun that opening gets.

Finish choices stay provisional until availability is confirmed and you’ve compared an accurate sample with the house materials. Options can vary by location, and displayed colors are approximate. Settle the window finish before matching the surrounding trim and siding colors.

Milgard lists both replacement and new-construction projects. For a replacement, check the existing frame and sill for damage before settling the scope of work. Follow the selected window’s installation instructions for support, fastening and flashing, with a continuous drainage path to the outside.

Milgard lists a Lifetime Limited Warranty and an optional Full Lifetime Warranty. Use the applicable replacement or new-construction warranty document to settle the coverage details for your project.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are Milgard windows good?

Milgard windows have practical features worth judging alongside their appearance. The SmartTouch window lock lets you unlock and open a window in one motion. That’s a useful detail if you open your windows every day and want straightforward operation.

Does Milgard make sliding glass doors?

Yes, Milgard makes sliding patio doors in the Tuscany and Trinsic lines. A sliding panel doesn’t need room to swing open, which helps when you’re arranging furniture near the doorway.

Can you use Milgard windows to replace old windows?

Yes, Milgard windows include choices for replacement projects. Keeping the existing frame and removing the entire unit are different jobs, and that choice affects your measurements and how much surrounding trim needs work.

What glass options do Milgard windows have?

SunCoat Low-E2 glass is standard on Milgard dual-pane windows and patio doors, and Tuscany offers SunCoat and SunCoatMAX Low-E options. Low-E coatings help control heat transfer. For your comparison, the performance ratings for the complete window matter more than the coating name alone.
