How to Identify Andersen Windows
Order your Andersen window and door parts in 5 easy
steps.
1) Age:
The age of your Andersen® Windows and Doors can be determined by
the glass date. On each Andersen® Window or Door is a AW logo
located in one of the corners of the glass. Around the AW logo will be
a series of numbers, letters, or a combination of the two, this is your
glass date or the age of your window.
2) Type:
There are several different types of windows and door. Window types can
be casement, awning, double hung, gliders, and roof windows. Door types
can be gliding, or swinging. (If you need assistance in determining the
type of window and door you have please refer to our Glossary.)
3) Glass Size:
Glass size, along with the age and type of window or door, allows us to
determine the model number of your window and door. Glass size is
obtained by measuring the visual glass size from the inside of your
home, width then the height, of your window or door.
Measure just the amount of glass you can see.
4) Handling:
The handing lets us know if your windows and doors are left hand or
right hand.
| Casement Windows |
The handing on a casement window is
determined by looking at the window from the exterior, if the hinges
are on the right the handing is right.
|
| Gliding Windows and Doors |
Gliding windows and doors, are viewed
from the exterior, if the operating panel is on the right the handing
is right.
|
| Door Swing |
Door Swing, both in-swing and
out-swing, use the diagram below to determine the swing of your
Andersen® door.
