As I created a list of windows and doors for estimating ballpark cost of complete replacement, I got really nervous: the price was growing steadily toward 50K, using the prices from Palo Alto Glass (Fleetwood pictures and Blomberg sliders) for extrapolation.
So I tried to put the measures into the online store, http://www.1stwindows.com/ using Milgard aluminum series as lead. And my window/door list (configuration 2, windows going "only" to bottom of beam).
I got a total of less than $15K for 24 windows and doors - but the 6 picture windows are only 60" wide (should be 67 3/4") ; the total would be just above $17K if I replaced the 60" wide picture windows with 67 3/4" wide sliders.
Still missing from the total are 4 swing in doors and 1-2 skylights. But we are far from 50K....
NB: the window/door list is not at all the final spec; for instance, no thoughts have yet gone into venting and such. This is just to get the general direction of pricing!
