A Toronto home built in 1965 received black brick-to-brick replacement windows, black aluminum exterior flashing and new doors, creating a modern exterior look with improved energy efficiency and security.
This Toronto project was completed for a home built in 1965. The homeowner wanted black windows for a modern exterior look while improving the performance of the old window and door openings.
NorthShield recommended a brick-to-brick installation method so the existing units could be fully removed and the new products could be properly insulated, sealed and finished. For homeowners considering a similar brick-to-brick window replacement project in Toronto, this approach is a strong choice when the goal is a complete exterior upgrade with better long-term performance.
All windows were finished on the outside with new black aluminum flashing to match the black window colour and provide a maintenance-free exterior finish. The black frames gave the home a sharper, more current look while the brick-to-brick installation allowed the team to address the full opening around each window.
The window package included Low-E glass and argon gas for improved energy efficiency. NorthShield also replaced several doors, including a full-glass door for maximum glass area and a front door with Rain Water decorative glass, a practical choice when the homeowner wants privacy, security and a larger glass insert. The door systems were selected with multi-point locking for extra security, matching the quality expected from NorthShield’s exterior door systems.
The full window and door replacement was completed in two days by a four-person NorthShield crew. All products were supplied and installed by NorthShield and were Energy Star certified for Canadian climate zones.
The result was a cleaner, more modern exterior with black windows, matching black flashing and updated doors. The brick-to-brick method helped create a better insulated and better sealed installation, supporting comfort, energy performance and long-term durability. NorthShield’s window energy efficiency guide explains how Low-E glass, argon gas and proper installation work together through winter and summer.
This Toronto project used brick-to-brick installation, black windows, matching black aluminum flashing, Low-E glass, argon gas and new doors to modernize the home while improving comfort and efficiency.
