Resilience in Action

Fleetwood Windows and Doors products support structural integrity in the face of wildfires

Fleetwood is committed to helping our community rebuild with resilience. Following the Palisades Wildfire, we are working alongside architects and builders to design homes that are both stunning in form and stronger in performance. While no product alone can prevent loss, Fleetwood’s aluminum windows & doors support a broader strategy for fire-resilient living.

A. Aluminum Alloy 6063-T6

High-strength alloy with a melting point up to 1210° F, this type of aluminum goes through a process to significantly increase its strength and hardness for superior applications.

B. The Fleetwood Difference

Fleetwood frames use up to 2x thicker walls than many competitors, boosting fire resilience and structural integrity.

C. Tempered Glass & WUI Code Compliance

Resists heat, shattering, and impact from flying embers better than standard glass. Fleetwood standardizes 6mm thick glass panes for superior durability (vs. 3-5mm used by others).

Fleetwood products meet California's Wildland-Urban Interface (WUl) fire safety requirements when specified with tempered insulated glass.

D. Marine-Grade Stainless Steel Hardware (316 Stainless)

Fire-resistant hardware that maintains strength under extreme heat and significantly limits flame spread.

E. Class 1 Anodizing

Classified as a non-combustible, chemically stable finish with excellent fire-resistant properties while delivering a premium look.
