Quality Solution You Can Trust
When we solve an elusive leak or design and install a window system that is both functional and architecturally appealing, then it has been worth the effort.
Noise Reduction
Energy Savings
When the View is Everything—But So is Safety and Performance
In a high-rise building, your windows do more than frame a view—they protect the structure, regulate temperature, reduce noise, and impact energy bills across dozens or even hundreds of units. Over time, aging or underperforming windows can lead to air leaks, water intrusion, and code compliance issues—not to mention tenant complaints.
That’s why at AFR Windows, we specialize in high-rise window replacement that’s safe, compliant, energy-efficient, and architecturally aligned with your building’s unique aesthetic.
The Problem: Outdated Windows in Tall Buildings Create Big Risks
Many commercial and residential high-rises built in the 1970s–2000s are showing their age. Their original windows—often single-pane or metal-framed—no longer meet today’s standards for energy performance or structural integrity.
We see common problems like:
Drafts and condensation inside units
Window frame corrosion or seal failure
Noise complaints from urban environments
Water leaks leading to mold or interior damage
Glass that doesn’t meet updated wind load or impact codes
Replacing these windows isn’t just about comfort—it’s about compliance, energy savings, and protecting property value.
The Solution: Modern Window Systems Built for Height and Harsh Conditions
AFR Windows provides full-service high-rise window replacement, offering:
Energy-efficient glazing that meets or exceeds ENERGY STAR® standards
Impact-rated systems for hurricane zones or high-wind areas
Custom-matched finishes to preserve architectural intent

Turnkey project management from design to signoff
We don’t just install windows—we help future-proof your building with systems designed to perform at elevation, under pressure, and across decades.

Boost building marketability and resale value
In many cities, window replacement can even help buildings qualify for green certifications or local tax incentives.
