Simulated Divided Light Vinyl

Achieve the classic look of authentic divided lites while enhancing your window s energy efficiency.

Simulated divided light vinyl.

Simulated divided light grilles on vinyl patio doors are permanently bonded to the inside and exterior of the glass. The finish is color matched to the interior and exterior frame color. Options for replacement windows in my case range from real divided light windows with multiple separate panes of glass to simulated divided lights an increasingly popular option for windows since they were introduced in the last decades of the 20th century. To achieve the large uninterrupted expanses of glass typical in modern projects divided lites are not available on our signature modern line.

Simulated divided lites or sdls help your home achieve energy efficiency while retaining a traditional appearance. The latest versions of simulated dividers are much more realistic than early snap in or removable grille versions which lacked depth. We manufacture simulated divided lites sdls for vinyl window companies across the country. They are best used when you want to complement your home s traditional or historic design.

Simulated divided light windows have just one piece of glass with removable muntins attached to both the interior and exterior of the glass usually with a strong adhesive called vbh tape. Our deluxe sdl package provides the most authentic look with sdls on the inside and outside of the window.
