In response to customers looking for a traditional interior aesthetic on a double-hung window, we are pleased to announce that our traditional check rail option is now available in Fibrex® material interiors. This option offers additional detail for customer looking for a classic look in a different and better double-hung window. Renewal by Andersen asked customers what options they would like to see available. For some customers the option of the contemporary styled or curved check rail was an obstacle. The traditional “squared” check rail option was released in wood interiors in the fall of 2011. Since those were extremely popular, the solid color interiors are now being introduced. The new traditional squared check rail is ideal for customers wanting historical details and traditional design for their homes. The colors available for the new traditional check rail are:[caption id="attachment_1680" align="alignright" width="300"]
