Replacement windows are typically a once-in-a-lifetime purchase, so it is important to find a style that will suit your home and budget for years to come. There are many aesthetic options available for replacement windows that can increase the curb appeal of your home, so taking the time to review the choices is an important step in the replacement process. One decision to make is whether or not you want your new windows to have grids.

Sometimes referred to as grilles, divided lites, or muttons, window grids come in a variety of patterns and colors that can alter the overall look of your home. Whether you are looking for a more traditional aesthetic or a more modern look, grids can help you accomplish that look. Read on as we discuss some of the available options for replacement window grids for your Columbus, Ohio home.

Simulated Divided Lites (SDL)

One option available for replacement window grids is Simulated Divided Lites, often abbreviated as SDL. Simulated Divided Lites have a grid both in between the glass and on the outside of the

glass to give the illusion of different window panes. SDL grids have a more traditional appearance and can be customized with different colors and contours to fit the look of your home. However, some customers do find SDL grids more difficult to clean as there are multiple squares to wash instead of just one pane of glass.

Grids Between the Glass (GBG)

Another popular option for window grids is Grids between the Glass, also referred to as GBG. Grids between the glass are exactly that, they have a grid between the 2 panes of glass. Like SDL, GBG grids come in a variety of patterns and some different contours but there is often less flexibility with the look of GBG because they are in between the panes of glass. While this grid option tends to have a less traditional appearance, many homeowners find GBG grids easier to clean due to the grids being in between the glass.

Cottage

I'm a big fan of HEGG Windows because of their customer service, attention to detail, and amazing communication. I had got several quotes before deciding on HEGG and what helped with my decision was that they are a local company, sales was not pushy, professional, price was reasonable, and communication/follow-ups were so nice. The installers were great and the quality inspection afterwards was helpful - they already found something to fix (hardware replacement) and are on it! I feel really taken care of. Thank you HEGG! Will definitely look for you for more windows in the future.

Probably the best company I’ve ever dealt with for home improvement. We just had a small, one door project and I felt like they treated us like we had a huge whole house window install. Communication was excellent from the company at every step. Final product was high quality, and they even did a follow up inspection to make sure we were satisfied. I will definitely use this company again when the need arises.

Highly recommend Hegg Windows and Doors! Knowledgeable, professional, communicative, great selection, and low pressure sales approach! Recently had sliding doors, 3 season room windows, entry doors replaced. Very happy with end result. The walk-through after installation addressed any questions or adjustments needed. They even caulked and touched up paint inside and out! A rare company built on customer satisfaction.

Laurie D.

The whole team was great to work with. They are skilled in what they do and very professional. We had a small job of replacing just two windows and they did an excellent job. We appreciated the follow up inspection and lessons on how to care for our new windows. Kudos to Josh, Virginia, and the whole team.

Anne B.

Excellent communication from the beginning of the process to the final QA walkthrough after the installation. This is the type of company you WANT to do business with rather than a company you have to work with. Excellent organization!
