Archetype Door Collectors
Archetype Door Collectors
Robust stainless steel door collectors may be applied to multi-slide systems to “collect” panels as doors are opened. This may also benefit motorized doors.
Proprietary Hardware & Solutions
Proprietary Hardware & Solutions
Fleetwood's aptly named Archetype hardware embodies our clientele's commitment to luxury architectural principles. Rather than adapt our products to off-the-shelf hardware, our engineers design our proprietary hardware, not as an accessory, but as an integral element that ensures flawless functionality. Handcrafted in the USA from American-made marine-grade stainless steel, each piece is electropolished for coastal endurance and backed by our Transferable Lifetime Warranty.

Archetype Edge Pull
Archetype Edge Pull
Industry edge pulls are usually too frail to handle the combined weight of more than two or three panels. Fleetwood designed an edge pull made of cast stainless steel that will not disengage during operation and can handle extreme weather without deteriorating.
Archetype Lever
Archetype Lever
To assist those with gripping challenges, we designed the Archetype Lever which works in conjunction with our Archetype Locking Hardware and is easily interchangeable. The lever is cast with marine-grade stainless steel and like all other Archetype hardware, the exposed surfaces are completed with an electropolish finish.
Archetype Locking Hardware
Archetype Locking Hardware
Fleetwood recognized 25+ years ago that its hardware partners were leaving the USA for cost savings. Fleetwood’s only option was to design and manufacture hardware suitable for elite luxury homes. Archetype Locking Hardware is constructed with series-3 and series-4 stainless steel and carries a US patent.
Archetype Lock Face Plate
Archetype Lock Face Plate
Every Archetype Lock Face Plate is hand crafted from series-4 stainless steel and designed as an ideal complement to the Archetype hook latch. Discriminating clients appreciate the precision aluminum tooling that abuts each Archetype Lock Face Plate.
Archetype Rolling System
Archetype Rolling System
Why do Fleetwood sliding doors operate better than all? Fundamental design principals. Our original track design from the 1950’s is essentially the same today. The key is the convex peak, which is perfectly married to the concave section of each Archetype roller. This creates an ideal distribution of energy with minimal friction. Further consider that each roller is made with Certified Swiss precision bearings and is assembled by Americans.
Archetype Strike Plate
Archetype Strike Plate
The Archetype Strike Plate was created to pair with our Archetype Locking Hardware. The beauty and strength of the Archetype Strike Plate is like none on the market. Lower quality sliding doors attach the strike plate instead of making it one with the extrusion. The Archetype Strike Plate provides plenty of adjustment and comes standard with a stainless steel dust box to hide the rough wall.
Archetype Threshold Insert
Archetype Threshold Insert
Ordinary sliding doors cover the roller track with a metal cap. In the 1970’s, Fleetwood used the cap method but soon discontinued it because it does not last long enough. The key to our design is the convex peak of the stainless-steel insert, which perfectly fits the concave section of each Archetype roller. This creates an idyllic distribution of energy with minimal friction.

The Archetype Floor Pivot is made of marine grade stainless steel and has two components. The solid base measures 3-5/16” x 4” x 7/8” and attaches to the slab structure with four 3-1/4” concrete screws. The top section is 7/16″ thick and is bolted to the base with four 1/4” x 1/2” stainless machine screws that allow ample adjustment before securing. Once the finished floor is completed, the lower portion is completely hidden inside the panel bottom rail.
Archetype Floor Pivot - Remodel

The Archetype Floor Pivot – Remodel is constructed of solid stainless steel and features a minimal base measuring 7/16″ thick. The base is bolted to the floor and offers adjustability for a perfect installation. As with the Archetype Floor Pivot, the top of the Archetype Floor Pivot – Remodel hides inside the 4400-T bottom rail so only the flooring is seen.
Archetype Head Pivot
Archetype Head Pivot
- The Series 4400-T top pivot was designed and is manufactured by Fleetwood. Conventional head pivots use common steel and lack features expected in the luxury home arena. The Archetype Head Pivot offers these features:Constructed of 300 Series stainless steel (ideal combination of strength and corrosion resistance).
- Stealthy design and the limited exposed stainless has a brushed finish to complement locking hardware.
- The strongest pivot pin and adjustment arm for superior durability and ease of adjustment.
- Extended length pin for greater security and wind load strength.
In-Rail Floor Closer
In-Rail Floor Closer
Our Series 4400-T was designed around cutting-edge closer technology by FritsJurgens. Each mechanism hides in the bottom rail, handles a 1000 lbs. load, and comes with a 90 degree hold open. The IRC fits snugly into the Archetype Floor Pivot, which provides a robust platform and offers adjustment for a perfect fit.

Archetype Butt Hinges
Archetype Butt Hinges
Most window butt hinges are made of steel or aluminum. Steel is strong but corrodes too easily and aluminum is not strong enough to handle large vents. Therefore, every Fleetwood casement comes with four Archetype stainless steel butt hinges. The hinge design is lean yet possesses incredible strength. Customers may choose from painted black or a natural brushed finish.
Archetype Cam Handle & Strike Plate
Archetype Cam Handle & Strike Plate
The Archetype Cam Handle is available on casement and awning windows. It is a textbook synchronization of form and function: hidden fasteners, ergonomic and slender yet robust. Its companion, the Archetype Cam Handle Strike Plate, is almost undetectable and a black Delrin center mound eliminates finish scraping.
Archetype Multi-Point Latch
Archetype Multi-Point Latch
The Archetype Multi-Point Latch is only offered on the Series 450-T. The shape is classic modern and made from cast high-grade stainless steel. Perceptive clients appreciate the hidden fasteners as well as the adjustable tension to eliminate rattling.
Archetype Screen Clips
Archetype Screen Clips
Typical projected windows screw on plastic swivels to “grab” the screen frame. Fleetwood engineered electropolished stainless steel flex clips that do not penetrate the aluminum and are easily removed for annual cleaning. Clips are offered in natural stainless or painted black.
Archetype Window Latch
Archetype Window Latch
The Archetype Window Latch is in a class of its own – by a long way – and is exclusive to Fleetwood sliding windows. Constructed of cast, marine-grade stainless steel, it offers a self-latching mechanism in a classic modern shape. Careful attention was applied to the ergonomics to achieve maximum comfort yet minimal presentation.
Hopper/Awning Concealed Hinges
Hopper/Awning Concealed Hinges
Each hopper comes with two 4-Bar stainless-steel hinges that disappear when closed. Each hinge is easily adjusted to achieve the desired tension.
Hinged Window Screen
Hinged Window Screen
When cam handles are desired, screens pose a challenge. Many windows offer a ‘doggie door’ to access the cam lever but this detracts the view. We designed an extruded frame that hinges from Archetype mini butt hinges. To secure the screen, we provide a hidden magnet. Along with UltraVue screen mesh, cam handles no longer pose a challenge for Fleetwood casement and awning windows.
Finish Pre-Treatment - Anodize
Finish Pre-Treatment - Anodize
Before anodizing, Fleetwood ‘blasts’ all exposed surfaces with minuscule stainless steel beads to reduce the natural character of aluminum. Most aluminum manufacturers are satisfied with cooling and drag lines, which are patently seen in lighter finishes.
Finish Pre-Treatment - Paint
Finish Pre-Treatment - Paint
Before painting, all exposed surfaces are sanded with fine grain paper. This is a labor-intensive step that brings about a luster and texture unlike any other. Most manufacturers skip this step or use acid to etch surface lesions. Fleetwood stopped this method decades ago in exchange for a craftsman level of quality.
