I am having a 3500 sq-ft metal building constructed this year and I'm wondering what the best option is for energy efficient fixed windows, 6' x 8'. Searching for windows, I find products like http://www.fibertec.com/windows/fixed/300-series-fixed-window/ picture windows. Two of those ordered as 4x6 would provide the overall size that I want but the window mount details are clearly intended for installation in a wood framed opening. Are there similar windows or installation details that would be better suited to a framed window opening in a metal building? BTW, this building has 8" deep wall girts and 8" deep finished window openings. thanks in advance for any suggestions

Hi Nick, Happy to help out, please drop me an email at [email protected] and I can send you PDF of an installation detail for a fixed window with nailing fin into a steel stud. Thanks, Craig
