Insert Replacement Windows

Insert Replacement Windows in Syracuse

Insert replacement, also called pocket replacement, fits a new window into your existing frame when that frame is still sound and square. Because the interior and exterior trim stay in place, the job is faster and less invasive than a full-frame replacement while still upgrading you to a modern, low-E insulated glass unit. Autostem installs insert windows in vinyl, fiberglass, and composite, each backed by our written installation guarantee.

Why Choose Insert Replacement

If your frames are solid but the sashes are drafty, foggy, or hard to operate, insert replacement gives you the energy and comfort gains without the cost and disruption of tearing out the trim. Homeowners in the tidy postwar houses around Strathmore often prefer this route because it preserves the original wood trim they want to keep. You still get argon fill, warm-edge spacers, and an NFRC-rated glass package, just installed inside the frame you already have.

Our Process

We first confirm the existing frame is square, level, and free of rot, since insert replacement only works over a sound frame. Then we remove the old sashes and stops, set the new insert unit into the pocket, shim it plumb, seal it against air and water, and adjust the operation so it opens smoothly. We register the manufacturer warranty and leave your trim looking untouched.
