At RAM, we know that the beauty of a window goes beyond the glass, it’s in the details that frame every view. Our Artisan Collection offers a wide range of Simulated Divided Lite (SDL) bars, a modern solution that recreates the timeless charm of true divided lite windows and doors without the upkeep challenges.
What are SDL bars?
SDL bars are applied to the exterior of the glass and paired with an internal shadow bar to mimic the appearance of individual panes while boosting energy efficiency. This allows homeowners and builders to achieve a historical or architectural look with all the benefits of today’s performance standards.
Our SDL bar styles include:
Flat Bar (.875″ & 1.5″) — A clean, simplistic design perfect for transitional spaces.
Low Profile (.875″ & 1.5″) — A slim, refined look especially suited for sliding products.
Tribar (.875″) — A unique simulated-steel appearance that adds character.
Traditional (.875″) — Timeless and versatile, fitting a wide range of home styles.
Contemporary (.875″) — Sleek and modern, ideal for minimalistic designs.
In addition to these bars, we also offer a variety of grid patterns. From Classic and Colonial to Diamond, Prairie, and Victorian, they can be paired with your choice of SDL bar to perfectly match your home’s style.
While SDL bars are the most popular choice, we also offer GBG (Grilles Between the Glass) options for homeowners who want the look of divided lites with the easiest maintenance possible.
With RAM’s extensive selection of SDL bars and grid patterns, you can fully customize your windows and doors to reflect your home’s unique personality, whether you’re aiming for a traditional, modern, or eclectic design.
