Product Overview – VLX 500 Single & Double Hung Window

The VLX 500 is what we call a workhorse window dressed in a tailored suit. The design keeps things simple: two sashes that slide vertically on a smooth track, with tilt-in mechanisms on both upper and lower panels so you can clean the exterior glass from inside the house. That last part matters more than people expect in Ventura, where ocean haze and morning fog leave a film on glass faster than homeowners like. You tilt, wipe, snap back into place. No ladder, no leaning out of a second-story bedroom.

For a single hung, only the lower sash moves. For a double hung, both do. The engineering underneath is the same, and that’s where this product separates itself from vinyl alternatives. The aluminum extrusion carries a wall thickness of 0.079 inches with a slim 2.36-inch profile, which translates to a durable frame that doesn’t eat up daylight with bulky sightlines. Villa-style homes, Spanish revival builds, and clean-lined modern remodels in Ventura all work with this window because the frame reads neutral. It doesn’t fight the architecture.

Buyers choose this series for three honest reasons: it holds up to coastal moisture without warping, the hardware feels solid after years of daily use, and the tilt-in feature means you’ll actually clean the glass instead of ignoring it. ViewLux engineers the product. Juniper Windows Ventura handles the measuring, ordering, and installation in Ventura, so the window shows up correct and goes in square.

Technical Specifications

Here’s the full breakdown of what the VLX 500 Single & Double Hung Window brings to a Ventura home. We’ve kept this in plain language, because frame dimensions and glass ratings don’t mean much until you understand what they do for your comfort and energy bills.

Specification Detail
Frame wall thickness 0.079 inches – thick enough for structural integrity and smooth sash travel over decades
Profile width 2.36 inches – slim sightline, less frame, more glass
Operation Single hung (lower sash moves) or double hung (both sashes move)
Glass options Clear, Frosted, Low-E, Tempered, Laminated
Finish options Premium Black, Pure White, Anodized Silver, Bronze, Champagne, Teak Wood
Screen options Half-screen or full-screen, in the finish of your choice
Performance ratings NFRC-rated thermal performance with thermal break technology; AAMA 2400/2410 installation standard compliance

Every frame leaves the factory prepped for the glass package you order. That means no field modifications, no surprises, and a fit that seals tight against Ventura’s coastal winds.

Performance Features

Thermal Efficiency – The VLX 500 uses thermal break technology, which separates the interior and exterior aluminum faces to stop heat transfer through the frame. NFRC-rated performance means you get real energy data, not marketing claims. In Ventura’s warm summers and mild winters, this keeps rooms comfortable without pushing your HVAC hard.

Acoustic Performance – Aluminum frames with a tight seal system perform well for sound control, and pairing the VLX 500 with laminated glass takes that further. If your home sits near Main Street, the 101, or a busy Ventura intersection, you’ll notice the difference in how much street noise stays outside.

Airtightness & Weather Seal – The sash-to-frame contact points use compression gaskets that hold their shape over time, while the perimeter installation seal follows AAMA 812 standards with low-expansion foam. Drafty windows are a comfort problem and an energy problem. These aren’t.

Waterproofing – Ventura sees real rain in winter, and coastal fog adds moisture year-round. The VLX 500’s weep system directs water out through hidden channels, and the AAMA-compliant installation includes full perimeter sealing so moisture never reaches the rough opening. Mist prevention between panes is handled by insulated glass unit construction.

Wind Resistance – Wind-load rated for the conditions we get in Ventura, especially homes in the foothills or on exposed ridges. The frame’s structural aluminum profile and reinforced corners keep sashes stable when Santa Ana winds kick up, and the double-hung configuration locks both panels in place.

Security & Hardware – The locking mechanism engages both sashes on the double-hung model, and the aluminum frame resists prying far better than vinyl. For an extra layer, request the laminated glass option, which is impact-resistant and holds together under force. It’s a serious upgrade for ground-floor windows in any Ventura home.

Color & Glass Options

The VLX 500 Single & Double Hung Window comes in six finishes. Premium Black is the current favorite for modern and transitional homes in Ventura, especially paired with white stucco or light wood siding. Pure White works for traditional cottages and Spanish colonial homes where the window shouldn’t call attention to itself. Anodized Silver and Bronze have a metallic depth that suits mid-century builds and commercial-to-residential remodels. Champagne lands somewhere between silver and bronze, a softer metallic that warms up stone exteriors. Teak Wood is a powder-coated finish that mimics the look of natural wood grain, ideal for Ventura homes where you want warmth without the maintenance of actual wood frames.

Glass options depend on what each room needs. Clear is standard. Frosted works for bathrooms and windows facing a neighbor. Low-E is our most-recommended upgrade for Ventura, since it reflects heat while letting light through. Tempered glass meets safety code for doors and low windows. Laminated handles impact resistance and sound reduction, and it’s the choice for coastal-exposed sides of homes near the water.

Installation by Juniper Windows Ventura in Ventura

An excellent window installed poorly is still a failing window. That’s the battle we fight every week at Juniper Windows Ventura. The VLX 500’s manufacturer warranty only holds when installation follows the listed standards, and ViewLux documentation specifically calls out AAMA 2400/2410 compliance. Here’s how we handle it.

Every project starts with a pre-install inspection. We measure the rough opening, check for water damage or rot in the surrounding framing, and verify that the opening can support the new window’s weight and load. Aluminum windows handle differently than old wood sashes, so this step keeps surprises out of the job. Then our installation crew levels, plumbs, and squares every unit before a single fastener goes in. A window that’s even slightly out of square will bind when you try to open it, and a tilted frame puts stress on the glass that shows up later as a seal failure.

Around the perimeter, we use AAMA 812-compliant low-expansion foam sealant, which fills gaps without bowing the frame. Flashing details follow manufacturer’s spec, including the sill pan and head flashing that keep water running down the exterior, not into the wall. Once the sashes are in and the hardware adjusted, we run a final water test on the lower corners and track channels, then walk the jobsite with you to confirm operation and cleanliness.

Ventura’s coastal moisture and occasional heavy downpour years mean the perimeter seal is not optional. Building codes in Ventura County also require tempered glass in certain locations, and we order the correct glass package up front so inspections go smoothly. Call (559) 314-1305 if you want an install crew that treats a window opening like a system, not a hole to fill.
