Standard
Laminated Impact Glass
A 0.090" PVB safety interlayer bonds the glass so it stays in the frame even if struck or broken — the core of every impact unit.
Options & specifications
Glass, frame colors, and the specs explained.
Factory-direct, wholesale-priced and made in the USA. Every WSC window and door can be configured to your project — here are the glass and color options, plus a plain-English guide to the technical terms so you can compare with confidence.
Glass options
Choose the glass for your space.
All impact products use laminated glass with a PVB safety interlayer. Tints and performance coatings can be added per project.
Clarity
Clear Glass
Maximum light and visibility — the default for bright interiors and clean sightlines.
Tinted
Bronze & Grey Tint
Reduces glare and solar heat while adding privacy — popular for sun-facing elevations.
Energy · on request
Low-E Coating
A microscopic coating that reflects heat for lower energy bills — available on request.
Privacy · on request
Obscure / Privacy Glass
Frosted or patterned glass for bathrooms and entries where privacy matters — available on request.
Frame colors

Plain-English glossary
The specs, explained.
No jargon — here's what the numbers on our product pages actually mean.
- Impact-rated
- The window or door is built and tested to withstand impact and stay intact — laminated glass holds together even if cracked, adding security and storm resistance.
- HVHZ (High-Velocity Hurricane Zone)
- Florida's strictest building standard for wind and impact. A product that passes HVHZ is among the toughest available anywhere in the U.S.
- PSF (Design Pressure)
- Pounds per square foot — how much wind pressure the unit is rated to handle, shown as positive/negative (e.g. +80 / -120). Higher numbers mean stronger performance.
- Laminated glass
- Two glass panes bonded to a tough plastic interlayer (PVB). If broken, the pieces stick to the interlayer instead of shattering — safer and quieter.
- U-Factor / SHGC / VT (NFRC ratings)
- Energy ratings: U-Factor = insulation (lower is better), SHGC = solar heat let in (lower keeps rooms cooler), VT = visible light let in (higher is brighter).
- Frame depth
- How deep the frame profile is. Deeper frames generally allow larger openings and higher wind-load ratings.
