BEERY HOUSE
Traditional House Exterior, Chicago
The Beerys decided to focus on creating a renovated home that would be warm and welcoming, while still retaining the beautiful details.The large double-hung windows had a unique shape — the top sash were round tops on the outside, but squared-off on the interior — plus the exterior casing had a classic headpiece that many window manufacturers simply couldn’t match. In order to match the trim profile for the outside, the headpiece was removed and sent to Marvin® Signature Services. Marvin was able to replicate it with clad exterior.”
In addition to choosing a low-maintenance extruded aluminum exterior, Beery also selected Ultimate Arch Top French doors. “I’m so glad we went with the full glass in our upstairs door — the light comes all the way down the stairway and into the downstairs hall.” Marvin crafted the door so precisely to the original dimensions that the Beerys were able to use the original curved wood trim from the exterior as the interior trim in the finished space.
