How to Make the New Black Window Trend Work for Your Home
Black framed windows are perfect for homeowners who want a home with a modern, minimalist feel and high-contrast curb appeal. Their dark frames look striking against a white or light color exterior. Plus, they work especially well in homes with an industrial or modern farmhouse style. If you’re considering black vinyl windows for your replacement or new construction project, read on!

Our Approach to Custom Color Vinyl Windows
The material we use to build our frames and sashes is a solid, high-quality virgin vinyl in three colors: white, beige, or clay. By design, we choose light-colored vinyl materials for our window and door systems. That’s because darker colors tend to absorb heat, which can cause warping, peeling, or chalking over time. By offering a factory-applied paint finish, we can achieve the look you want without impacting your desired performance.
The finish we use on our custom color vinyl windows is specifically formulated for vinyl. It is designed for commercial and residential applications and has a 10-year warranty against peeling, flaking, and fading. The factory prep process includes priming, cleaning, and masking the windows before paint application, followed by a heat-cured finish. You can be confident that your windows and doors are professionally painted, using the right products, in a controlled factory environment.
Our paint process gives you hundreds of color options, including the ability to color-match your shutters or interior trim, like black framed windows on your house. More importantly, we give you the option of having a different color on the exterior than on the interior.
If you want the street appeal of a black exterior window frame AND the clean, casual look of a white interior – we can do that! Plus, we ensure all your decorative grids and hardware match perfectly with black trim window options.
