Hope's story begins not in the suburbs of Chicago, but over a century ago. Founded in 1912 as the International Casement Company, the company merged with the renowned Henry Hope & Sons in 1932 to become Hope's Windows, Inc.. Since its inception, the company has been dedicated to the art of handcrafting solid, hot-rolled steel and bronze window and door systems. This is not an assembly line operation. In their Jamestown, New York, manufacturing facility, a team of skilled artisans, members of Ironworkers Shopmen’s Local 470, use methods refined over a hundred years to shape raw steel into architectural masterpieces. Each component is marked and measured to within a few thousandths of an inch, and every frame is meticulously painted by hand. This dedication to the craft ensures that every Hope's product is not just a component of a building but a genuine piece of American artistry.
Depending on the specific aesthetic of a building—whether it is a mid-century modern restoration, a sleek contemporary build, or a historic commercial space—Hope's offers specialized product lines to match the vision: 1. The Old World Suite™
