California's sun-drenched coasts conceal a silent destroyer: relentless salt spray and humid ocean air that savagely compromise structural integrity. Traditional wood windows warp, crack, and corrode here—sometimes within 3 years—forcing homeowners into cycles of sanding, resealing, and premature replacements. This coastal reality exacts a toll: 1,200–2,400 in annual maintenance per property. That's why across Newport Beach and beyond, architects now pivot to aluminum-clad wood windows—where teak's elegance meets aerospace-grade protection against the Pacific's assault.
It was this precise coastal challenge that drew John and Michelle to Luvindow's California headquarters. When their architect shared Newport Beach blueprints, our specialists—with 18 years' coastal retrofit logs—knew precisely which forces to defeat. Their vision—a natural stone sanctuary dressed in teak, bathed in sunlight—demanded windows that could withstand the Pacific's corrosion while enhancing architectural harmony. Ordinary products would have failed.
We engineered floor-to-ceiling thermal-break aluminum windows wrapped in teak: wood's warmth indoors, aluminum's armor outside. Double-pane Low-E glass deflected salt spray while trapping coastal light. The result? Every room became a sun-drenched observatory—no warping frames, no corroded corners—just uninterrupted ocean vistas. These systems meet the standards of energy efficient windows California residents expect—and they're built to last.
"Finally, windows that match California's beauty without surrendering to its climate," noted Michelle. Their teak-and-stone retreat now stands guard against the coast—effortlessly.
In this project, the choice between solid wood and aluminum-clad wood wasn't just aesthetic—it was strategic.
While solid wood windows offer unmatched warmth and texture, they are far more sensitive to moisture, sun exposure, and maintenance over time. By contrast, our teak-clad thermal break aluminum windows deliver the look of wood indoors, while an aluminum shell outside guards against corrosion and thermal stress.
Compared to traditional all-wood windows, this hybrid system:
And for clients comparing prices, our French windows cost $300–550 per unit, while standard U.S. wood casement windows range from $400–800—with no better performance. For homeowners looking to reduce AC bills with windows CA–this upgrade is a win-win.
California has long been one of our most active and design-forward markets. Over the past few years, we've completed more than 100 window and door projects across the state, ranging from luxury hillside homes and coastal villas to urban commercial and multi-family developments. With jobs completed in cities such as Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco, each project reflects our ability to adapt to regional building codes, architectural aesthetics, and environmental demands.
In Los Angeles alone, our team has delivered systems for both residential and commercial applications. For one modern hillside home, we supplied over 80 ultra-slim aluminum windows, 70-series swing doors, and 152 large-format lift-slide doors, all customized for seamless indoor-outdoor flow. In a nearby multi-use complex, we provided 87 thermally broken aluminum windows and 21 high-performance sliding doors, engineered to reduce urban noise and meet Title 24 energy standards.
Across these projects, our solutions have been selected not only for performance but for their ability to integrate cleanly into a wide range of architectural styles—from minimalist to Mediterranean.
To showcase the breadth and craftsmanship of our work, we will be releasing a visual collection of featured California projects, highlighting how our window and door systems bring elegance, efficiency, and long-term value to homes and buildings throughout the state.
