1. Overview of System Window Wall-Occupying Widths
When selecting high-performance system windows, the primary metric that dictates frame depth, structural rigidity, and installation method is the wall-occupying width (profile depth in millimeters or centimeters):
-
Master Series (7.5 cm / 75 mm depth): Compact profile for high thermal performance in traditional single-window configurations.
-
Master X (8.5 cm / 85 mm depth): Sleek design featuring frame-and-sash flush alignment.
-
Push Out Plus Series (10.5 cm / 105 mm depth): Dual-function system integrating the window frame and insect screen into a single unit.
-
Slim Master Push Out Plus Pro Series (12.0 cm / 120 mm depth): Heavy-duty integrated system designed for maximum weather resistance and screen mesh integration.
2. Master Series & Master X Series Breakdown
Master Series (7.5 cm Profile)
The Master Series is engineered for projects requiring high-efficiency thermal insulation without excessive frame thickness. Operating with a 75 mm profile depth, this option provides robust structural stability while taking up minimal wall space.
Key Features:
-
Ideal for northern climates where primary focus is thermal retention.
-
Requires a separately installed screen mesh system if insect protection is needed.
-
Excellent cost-to-performance ratio for energy-conscious builds.
Master 85 Series (8.5 cm Profile - Frame & Sash Flush Design)
The Master 85 Series expands on the Master series by offering an upgraded Master x mm wall-occupying width. Its defining visual attribute is the frame-and-sash flush alignment.
Key Features:
-
Modern architectural appearance where the window frame and opening sash sit completely flat against each other.
-
Enhanced wind-load resistance and deeper multi-cavity insulation pockets.
-
Recommended for modern residential exteriors demanding sleek facade continuity.
3. Integrated Screen Mesh: The Push Out Plus Series & Slim Master Push Out Plus Pro Series
For regions requiring continuous ventilation alongside insect and security protection, integrated window systems offer a seamless single-frame solution.
Slim Master Push Out Plus Pro Series (105 mm / 10.5 cm Depth)
The Push Out Plus Series eliminates the need to source or mount secondary screens. By incorporating both the glass window frame and high-strength screen mesh into a single extruded profile, installation is streamlined and facade aesthetics remain unified.
Heavy-Duty Integrated Series (120 mm / 12 cm Depth)
With a 12 cm wall-occupying depth, the Slim Master Push Out Plus Pro Series provides maximum multi-cavity space, accepting thicker insulated glass units (IGUs) while maintaining built-in screen mesh integration.
4. Single Windows vs. Integrated Screen Windows
One of the most common dilemmas for buyers is choosing between a Single Window (Master Series) and an Integrated Screen Window Push Out Plus Series
| Feature | Master Series (Single Window) | Push Out Plus Series (Integrated Screen) |
| Wall Depth |
75 mm (7.5 cm) |
105 mm (10.5 cm) |
| Insect Screen |
Installed separately |
Built directly into frame profile |
| Installation |
Two-step process if adding screens |
Single-step integrated setup |
| Aesthetics |
Ultra-slim profile depth |
Slightly wider frame, seamless unit |
| Best For |
Northern cold regions, high thermal efficiency |
Regions requiring frequent screen ventilation |
5. Thermal Insulation & Multi-Cavity Performance Analysis
A common concern among buyers is whether integrated screen windows compromise energy efficiency or structural integrity.
-
Multi-Cavity Internal Structure: Both the single 75 mm frame and the integrated 105 mm frame utilize advanced multi-cavity polyamide thermal barrier breaks.
-
Equivalent Performance: Because the primary glass chamber and thermal breaks carry near-identical specifications across both series, choosing an integrated screen model Push Out Plus Series offers built-in convenience with zero compromise on thermal insulation or soundproofing.
6. Buying Guide: Choosing the Right Series for Your Project
-
Choose Master 75 if you prioritize a slim wall profile, maximum cost-efficiency, and plan to add internal shades or detached screens as needed.
-
Choose Master 85 if your architectural design calls for a smooth, flush exterior appearance with enhanced structural frame strength.
-
Choose Push Out Plus Series if you want an all-in-one factory-assembled solution that combines insect screening and high thermal performance without additional hardware installation.
-
Choose Slim Master Push Out Plus Pro Series if you are designing high-rise or extreme weather coastal builds requiring maximum structural rigidity and wide-cavity triple glazing.
