Searching for window manufacturer

Hi all. I'm hoping to replace some windows with identical or similar ones and all I have to go on is the logo in the photo. The house is in St. Paul MN but can only guess when the other windows were done, probably less than 15 years ago. They are double hung, double glazed, wood (maple?) with milled full width finger groove for lifting. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

It could be Kolbe & Kolbe windows.

I'd say that's a safe bet.

I thought it might have been them as well and after your comments searched longer and finally found the same logo pointing to Kolbe. I have contacted them and hopefully will find a few sash packs with dust on them I can use. Thanks for the help.

96 x 80 door opening (Closet)

H

hardwoodster on Apr 06, 2016

Hello, I have somewhat of a unique situation. I have a long closet opening of 96 inches wide by 80 inches tall. Before, there were 4 bi-fold closet doors installed, which looked really ugly IMO. I have taken those, and the sliding track down. I would like to put 2 48 x 80 sliding doors in it's place. However, I am having a really difficult time finding 48 x 80 doors. Can anyone point me in the right direction, please? Or, if you have any other ideas for that opening, that is welcome also. Thanks in advance!

Installing an octagon window in existing octagon window.

Tumbz on Apr 02, 2016

Hey guys, I am a total newbie so please explain clearly. I basically have an old octagon window that broke. I actually already bought a new VENTING OCTAGON window. The outside rough opening is exactly 23 and 1/2 inches and is BRICK because its a brick house. The rough opening of my window is 23 inches. Will this fit? I only have about 1/4 of an inch so i cant build a wood frame to the brick opening.. What should i do? Can i use thin 1/4 inch wood pieces just so that i can fill the void and screw the window right into the bricks with a masonry screw and drill?
