Windows & Doors

(MS) - Eager to add color and pizzazz to your house? One of the fastest and easiest ways to enhance the curb appeal of your home is to "decorate" the exterior windows.

A new product, the Style Solutions Easy-Install Crosshead, is the ideal way for even the most novice do-it-yourselfer to easily upgrade the outside of a home. Available in six colors to enhance the tops of windows, the crosshead is molded from high-density, impact-resistant, fade-resistant polypropylene.

The innovative and timesaving Style Solutions Easy-Install Crosshead never needs painting, is 100-percent waterproof and can adjust to fit above windows ranging from 24 to 54 inches. In less than 15 minutes, you can install a crosshead over a window with minimal tools and effort.

The crossheads come in six colors: evergreen, quarry stone, cappuccino, patriot blue, berry red and traditional white. The color is blended with the polypropylene and runs consistently throughout the entire product, so there's no peeling or chipping.

"The ability to order these weather-resistant pieces in different colors allows homeowners to select window crossheads that complement other colorful accents on their home, such as shutters, entry doors and exterior trim," says Mike Reed, director of marketing for Style Solutions. "Most importantly, it's easy for a homeowner to cut the crosshead to the appropriate size with a regular saw and install it with a screwdriver and electric drill." There's no caulking needed around the crosshead, and the screws are provided in the box, he adds.

A newly designed "living hinge" on the back of the crosshead connects the front of the piece to the back installation plate, making for fast, easy installation by any do-it-yourselfer. A matching keystone snaps onto the center of the unit, covering the center seam.

"This 'one-size-fits-all' crosshead can be used for small and large windows," says Reed. "In a few hours, homeowners can quickly and easily change the look of the entire exterior of their home by adding these stylish and low-maintenance accent pieces."
