Hardware options are not limited by the nature of the window material. Steel windows can accept any style, any type of hardware that can be imagined. Manufacturers have access to a seemingly unlimited variety of handles, operators and closing devices. In addition, exact hardware replacements for windows half a century or older are often available.
