ENERGY STAR rated double- and triple-pane replacement windows and fiberglass entry doors installed across Northwest Indiana by full-time employees — never subcontractors.
Northwest Indiana's Smart Choice for Windows & Doors
Old windows leak — air, water, and money. Smart Choice Exteriors installs replacement windows across Northwest Indiana that are engineered for NWI's temperature swings: Low-E coatings that reflect summer heat, argon-filled panes that hold winter warmth, and warm-edge spacers that stop the interior condensation that ruins sills.
Every window install includes precise measurement, level and plumb setting, insulation of the rough opening, exterior flashing, and interior trim finish. Our entry door installs pair fiberglass and steel doors with adjustable sills, multi-point locking, and matching sidelights when the opening allows.
What Makes Our Windows & Doors Work Different
ENERGY STAR Certified
Every window we install meets or exceeds ENERGY STAR Northern Zone criteria — the standard designed specifically for climates like Northwest Indiana.
Full-Frame or Insert Options
Insert windows for like-for-like replacement, or full-frame installs when trim, sills, or exterior brickmould need to be replaced too.
Employee Installers
Our window and door crews are full-time employees, background-checked and trained on our install spec — never day-laborers or subs paid by the opening.
Lifetime Warranty
Manufacturer's lifetime warranty on glass and frame, plus our lifetime workmanship warranty on installation. Coverage that transfers to future owners.

Old unit removed, opening inspected and insulated, new unit set plumb and square, flashed on the exterior, and trimmed on the interior.
Every window operated, locked, and inspected with you. Old units and packaging hauled away, magnet sweep, done.
Smart Materials, Honest Recommendations
We install what makes sense for your home and budget — never what pays the biggest commission. Here's what's on the menu for windows & doors.
Low-maintenance vinyl frames with double or triple-pane insulated glass — the smartest ROI for most NWI homes.
Higher-end fiberglass frames that expand and contract at the same rate as glass, virtually eliminating seal failures.
Insulated fiberglass entry doors that resist warping, denting, and rot — with paintable or stainable finishes.
Vinyl and fiberglass sliding patio doors with multi-point locking and low-E insulated glass.
Smart Answers For NWI Homeowners
+How much does a replacement window cost?
Most standard vinyl replacement windows in NWI run $650–$1,100 installed per opening depending on size, style, and glass package. We provide free itemized quotes.
+Triple-pane or double-pane?
Triple-pane adds meaningful sound reduction and modest energy savings. For most NWI homes, upgraded double-pane with Low-E and argon is the smart-money choice — but we'll price both.
+Do I have to replace all my windows at once?
No. Many homeowners phase the work over a few years by prioritizing the worst-performing exposures first (typically west and north sides).
+Do you install entry and patio doors?
Yes — fiberglass entry doors, steel doors, and sliding/French patio doors, all with the same lifetime workmanship warranty.
