Fenestrations

Beautiful, resilient, high-performance building passageways and openings.

Your building renovation/retrofit deserves our professional installation and repair of windows, including available high-performance window films, doors, thermal wall systems, and storefronts. These maximize daylighting and weather resistance, optimize thermal performance, comfort, productivity, and asset value.

Owner Benefits from improved Fenestrations

Code and rating readiness - we work to meet project requirements and industry performance standards.

The federal Building Performance Database and related research, managed by the Department of Energy, is the nation’s largest public source for measured building energy performance and shows that fenestration and envelope upgrades are among the most effective, high-impact, fundable solutions to influence a building’s energy use and comfort.

Energy Efficiency Energy Performance Reduces solar heat gain and thermal losses, lowering HVAC loads and improving Energy Use Intensity (EUI) metrics.
Compliance & Standards Supports alignment with ASHRAE 90.1, IECC, UFC 3-101-01, and ENERGY STAR® fenestration criteria.
Daylighting & Comfort Enhances natural light while controlling glare, heat, and noise reduction improving occupant satisfaction.
Envelope Continuity Integrates with air barrier and insulation systems to improve overall envelope performance.
HVAC Optimization Reduces peak loads and improves envelope efficiency - critical for heat pump and low-load systems.
Durability & Moisture Control High-performance glazing and frames reduce condensation risk and protect interior finishes.
Acoustic & IAQ Benefits Advanced glazing systems improve sound attenuation and reduces pollutant and pest infiltration.
Lifecycle Value Longer service life and reduced maintenance costs compared to legacy window systems.
Funding & Incentives Qualifies as an ECM under ESPC/UESC models and may be eligible for utility or federal rebates.
Marketability & Resilience Improves building aesthetics, resilience, and valuation - especially in federal and commercial portfolios.

Fenestration dictates energy costs, occupant comfort, asset value, and risk exposure. BEAR delivers what your project needs from performance-led glazing to storefront solutions: installation, repair, and retrofit that make your building more comfortable, efficient, and visually compelling. Schedule a Capability Briefing or pre-selection meeting with us to see how we can newly install, or renovate your unsightly, inefficient and deteriorated fenestrations to maximize comfort, reduce utility spend, and strengthen your asset value.
