Vinyl & Aluminum Windows

Don Young Windows

Energy Efficient Vinyl & Aluminum Windows in Austin, TX. Our goal as a window replacement company is to make the most energy-efficient, easy to clean, durable, and maintenance-free windows possible. Don Young Windows have thick aluminum walls that provide the best choice for strength and durability. The baked-on enamel paint finish makes these windows tough enough to stand up against the harshest of Summers and the coldest of Winters.

​No need to worry about painting these aluminum windows. Best of all, a superior insulated glass system that provides optimum energy performance and outside noise control. We can also offer an optional solar control glass that offers UV protection against the scorching Austin Summer heat. All Don Young windows are backed by our limited lifetime warranty.

Some of our competitors get bent out of shape when we suggest their windows and doors can’t compete with our products and prices. Our window sill section is substantially stronger than most windows on the market today, a feature that is especially important in supporting heavy insulated glass..

Aluminum Replacement Windows Comparison

Aluminum windows are 3.4 times stronger than vinyl windows and 43 times stronger than wood windows.

An ultra-efficient insulated barrier used in frames and sashes dramatically reduces HEAT and COLD transfer through the aluminum, making it an exceptional insulator like wood and vinyl, but with the added durability of aluminum.

Don Young Single-Hung Aluminum Windows

Our high-efficiency series represents the best in energy efficiency and low maintenance for your home. Since more than 30% of your energy bill can literally go right out the window, a tremendous amount of time has gone into designing this window for maximum energy efficiency and low maintenance-resulting in a quality window that exceeds the performance of other typical aluminum windows on the market today. Strong, rigid, and durable, our thermally improved aluminum windows will give you a long-term trouble-free performance.

Design Benefits

  • Heavy Gauge Aluminum – 20% more than most builder grade windows-this ensures structural integrity even on the largest of windows.
  • Interior Aluminum Glazing Bead makes it impossible to remove the glass from the outside to gain entry. A good security feature.
  • Child-safe tilt latches prevent children from accidentally tilting in operating sashes-also allows for easy cleaning.
  • Adjustable self-lubricant spiral balances with color coordinate cover ensure years of trouble-free operation.
  • Electrostatically applied paint – a superior paint finish that bounds to the aluminum for a hard smooth finish – available in white, bronze, and almond.

Energy Benefits

  • 100% thermally improved sash and frames separated by high-density polyurethane – greatly reduces heat and cold transfer through the aluminum, significantly more thermally efficient than non thermally improved aluminum.
  • “Energy Seal” weather-stripping allows us to have one of the lowest air filtration ratings in the industry – over 70% more airtight than industry standards. This means no drafts, less dust, and less energy loss for your home.
  • Swiggle Seal technology used in manufacturing insulated glass is a reinforced polymer with a very low thermal conductivity. This means reduced heat and cold transfer through the edge of the glass unit.
