| Hi all,
I just got 2 quotes for eagle windows and french doors. although i gave both the same instructions, they both are a little different, as well as pricing. I was wondering if you could help me interpret them? i know in general, the color doesn't matter as there are 53 standard colors at no extra charge. Also, fir and pine are the same cost for eagle windows. but i am confused about the wall differences, which is the better window, or does this matter? thanks very much! Quote #1 describes windows as:
Quote #2 describes windows as:

| Not 100% sure as I have not sold Eagle in years but i do believe the standard jamb is 2 7/8" and then they use an extension piece called an extension jamb to bring it flush to your interior wall. Andersen does the same with their casement units. So i would surmise that the company pricing it as a 4 9/16 wall is actually pricing it the same as the 2 7/8" wall with 1 5/16" jamb all 4 sides. |

| Hi millworkman, Thanks for the explanation. To give more info, the company pricing as 4 9/16" wall gave me another quote with retractable insect screen option where the windows are 4 7/8" wall, i assume because of the different screen option. Does it mean they are thicker windows? Both companies specified the french doors at 4 9/16" however. So i am quite confused. |
