Looking for a different collection?
Elevate features rich wood interiors in bare pine that can be stained to match your interiors, or finished in Marvin’s factory. Four interior finish options are available: bare pine (for custom staining on site), clear coat, painted designer black, and painted white.
Four Finish Options
Elevate features Marvin’s proprietary Ultrex pultruded fiberglass exterior – eight times stronger than vinyl and three times stronger than vinyl/wood composites. The AAMA-verified acrylic finish is three times thicker than competitive painted options and resists scratching, fading, chalking, peeling, and cracking, even in darker colors. Six exterior color options are available in neutral and dark tones. The Ultrex exterior is fully paintable without voiding the warranty.
Five Colour Options
The Elevate collection offers 8 window types covering the most in-demand traditional styles. Each combines a warm wood interior with a durable Ultrex fiberglass exterior.
Hinges at the top, opens outward from the bottom. Ideal for ventilation in hard-to-reach areas like over sinks or counters.
Angled window that projects outward to add space, light, and expanded views. Typically built with a large center unit and two side windows for added ventilation.
Side-hinged window with a concealed multi-point locking system. Available in standard and narrow frame versions. The narrow frame version offers a slimmer profile for precise frame-in-frame replacement.
The most popular window style. Upper and lower sashes both operate for maximum ventilation. Tilt-in sashes for easy cleaning from inside. An insert option is available for frame-in-frame replacement without removing existing trim or siding.
Non-operating window often installed to showcase a view or as a complement to operating units in a larger assembly.
Sashes slide horizontally for easy operation. A practical choice where you want ventilation without a sash that projects outward.
Trapezoids, polygons, arched/round-top, and other geometric designs. Custom-built to match unique architectural needs.
