Mo's Night Shift

The house goes quiet. The windows still have to work.

Beale is loud. Your bedroom shouldn't be. Pull the window shut and watch what good glass does to the noise. Then hear it for yourself, step onto the street, and play a round with Mo.

Window open. The band is in the bedroom.

The Quiet Lab.

A street, a bedroom, and one window between them. Stand outside, then step inside. Press play, then switch the glass while it runs and listen to what changes.

Glass
What is outside

This is a simulation to show the idea, not a lab measurement. How much quieter your room gets depends on the wall, the install and what is outside. Ask us for the glass spec sheet when we measure.

After the lights go out

What a good window does at night.

Nobody looks at the windows at midnight. That is when you find out if they are any good. Tap a window and watch it do its job.

  • Keeps it quiet.

    Traffic, barking dogs, the early trash truck. Good glass and a tight seal keep more of it outside.

  • Holds the room.

    The room stays close to where you set it. Less chill off the glass in January. Less heat through it in July.

  • Locks tight.

    The sash closes, the lock catches, and it stays put. Check it once and go to bed.

  • No rattle.

    When the wind picks up, a window that fits its opening does not tap, whistle or shake.

Think Memphis, think the blues

Memphis sings. So does Mo.

Mockingbirds pick up the songs around them. Raise one in this town and you get a little blues.

Play him something. He will give it back in his own key.

Or tap Mo for one of his own.

The glass

The quiet is in the glass.

Every window we install is a premium vinyl replacement window. Here is what goes in the opening.

Dual-pane Low-E glass with argon
StandardTwo panes with argon sealed between them and a Low‑E coating on the glass. Comes on every window.
Triple-pane glass
AvailableA third pane, if you want it. Ask us when we measure.
Tempered glass
AvailableSafety glass for the spots that call for it, like next to a door or over a tub.
Obscure glass
AvailableLets the light in and keeps the view out. Good for bathrooms.
Dual-pane, cut through: two panes of Low-E glass with argon sealed between them. Triple-pane, cut through: a third pane of glass added to the stack. Ask us about it when we measure.

Mo's Arcade.

Three small games. One teaches you what new glass does, one teaches you the window styles, one teaches you when a window is done. Grizz shows up in all of them if you look.

Score 0. Best 0. Tap the window the noise is headed for, or press its number.

Every style we install has its own page. The links in the answers take you there.

Our mascot

Mo keeps watch.

Mo is a Northern Mockingbird, the state bird of Tennessee and Mississippi.

Mockingbirds are known to sing well into the night. Mo would rather sit on the sill and keep an eye on the place. The windows handle the rest.

Six noises. You heard none of them.

Mo's log, not a lab result. Your night depends on your house, your glass and your street.

On The Money, On The Mark.

Quiet nights start with a quote.
