Fenestra Basement 
Windows are: . 
Always Easy to Operate—You know how damp 
weather interferes with the operation of ordinary 
basement windows. But dampness never affects 
Fenestra. Fenestra Windows, with their bars of 
solid steel, cannot warp nor stick. They’re always 
easy to open and just as easy to close. 
Far More Attractive—Look for Fenestra Base' 
ment Windows in the homes recently built or now 
building in your locality. Notice how Fenestra’s 
slender bars and broader panes add to the appear- 
ance of the lower part of the house. See if you don’t 
think they make the whole house more attractive. 
Strong and Long-lived—Of course. Fenestra 
Basement Windows are more durable. They can¬ 
not rot or decay. Coal or wood deliveries do not 
interfere with their perfect operation.

in Your New Home 
An Added Protection—With their bars of 
solid steel and positive locking device. Fenestra 
Windows provide an effective barrier against out¬ 
side intruders. And, as you can readily see. Fenestra 
steel construction adds one more element of fire- 
protection to the home. 
Easily Screened—No trouble in screening 
Fenestra Windows. Two screw holes are provided 
on each side of the frame so that screens can be easily 
fitted to the outside and secured from the inside. 
Low in Cost—Why be satisfied with ordinary 
basement windows when you can have all the added 
advantages of Fenestra at little greater cost ? Your 
contractor knows that Fenestra costs less to install.

ing to build a new home, store building, or other

dows before plans are drawn. Write for the new 
folder containing the complete Fenestra story. 
Be sure that your new home is equipped 
with Fenestra Basement Windows. 
Then you’ll have a basement that’s 
really usable. There’ll be light a-plenty 
around your work bench, in the laun¬ 
dry, in the coal bin, near the furnace— 
everywhere. There’ll be no dark and 
dangerous places on the stairway. 
Flooded with natural light and pure, 
fresh air in abundance, the Fenestra 
Daylighted Basement is a truly livable 
basement. 
That’s because Fenestra Basement 
Windows, with their narrower steel bars, 
broader panes and larger openings, admit 
80 % more light and far more air. They 
make the basement as bright and health¬ 
ful and usable as the rooms upstairs.
