Hope’s Windows Jamestown175 Series

Hope’s Windows Inc., the manufacturer of custom hot-rolled steel and solid bronze window and door systems, has announced a significant expansion of its Jamestown175 Series. The company’s in-swing impact doors have successfully completed rigorous testing, achieving a +/-65 PSF pressure rating, thereby broadening design possibilities and simplifying specifications for Florida projects.

The newly tested in-swing doors, measuring an impressive 84 by 132 inches, match the size of Hope’s existing out-swing multipoint door approval. This achievement allows for the updating of current approvals to include both swing directions along with the latest features.

Key highlights of the successful testing include:

  • Adoption of Hope’s swing hook gear, streamlining specifications and eliminating the need for special documentation previously required with GU rhino gear.
  • Integration of current HDG lockstile/kickpanel construction (7ga channel with glue and screw skins), aligning shop drawings with modern manufacturing methods.
  • Incorporation of Hope’s 237S screw-attached pivots for enhanced durability.
  • Successful testing without glazing beads, allowing for both monolithic and insulated glass options and providing greater design flexibility.

These advancements simplify the specification process, enhance product consistency and offer architects expanded design possibilities while maintaining Hope’s renowned performance standards.

To address water resistance, the manufacturer is implementing a proven solution by incorporating a drain trough similar to that used in its pivoting door designs. This enhancement ensures optimal water management and long-term performance, particularly critical in Florida’s challenging climate.

The Jamestown175 Series, renowned for its strength and aesthetic appeal, continues to offer a 20% increase in window section depth compared to the brand’s Landmark175 Series. This allows for larger window sizes without additional reinforcing or mullions, enabling architects to create expansive, light-filled spaces without compromising on safety or aesthetics.

Hope’s Windows remains committed to rigorous testing and certification, subjecting its products to third-party testing, dedication that ensures the products meet the most stringent building codes while offering design flexibility.
