A casement window is hinged on one side or the other and opens outward to the left or right. This window is typically taller than it is wide, and the entire sash opens – providing large amounts of ventilation.

Unlike a casement window, awning windows are actually hinged at the top and open outward. But unlike casement windows they are typically wider than they are tall.

Awning windows are a great choice for over the kitchen sink for an unobstructed view with hardware that is easy to reach. Because awning windows vent from the bottom instead of the side, they allow peace of mind for safety & security and allow you to keep the window open, even in the rain.

The difference between a double-hung window and a single-hung window is that a single hung window has a top section (sash) that does not open. Only the lower section (sash) of the window opens – and only opens vertically. A double-hung window, as the name implies, allows the homeowner to open either the top or bottom section (sash). Your double-hung windows are also easier to clean because of the tilt-in feature.

Bay and bow windows are a set of windows used in combination that project outward from the home. Bay windows are arranged in a 30 or 45 degree angle pattern with three separate window openings usually consisting of a large central window (often a picture window) and two smaller windows on either side. Each window can be customized to use a specific type of window (i.e. double hung, casement, picture).

Bay windows typically add additional length and the appearance of a larger room. Many homeowners opt for a large picturesque panoramic center window framed by double-hung or casement windows on each side. The main difference between a bay and a bow window is that a bay window consists of three windows in an angled projection. While a bow window consists of four or more windows joined together to form a more graceful and elegant arc and are typically constructed using casement windows.

Bay and Bow windows are a gorgeous addition to any home and have been used since Victorian times. They are the window of choice when additional space and light are needed.

Two and Three-Pane Gliders provide easy horizontal (as opposed to vertical) sash movement and offer practical window styles where operational access may be difficult – such as above kitchen sinks on in the bathroom shower. These windows come in either two sash or three sash design.

Glider windows are great when you need ease of operation, an unobstructed view or where you don’t want a window where the sash protrudes to the exterior. For example, a casement window which has a sash that opens to the exterior onto a patio or deck area may interfere or obstruct the entertaining area or walkway.

Custom windows not only personalizes your home, but they can increase your home’s resale value as well. The most common specialty shaped windows are half rounds, octagons, trapezoids, and segment shaped windows.

A picture window is the ideal choice if you are trying to maximize your viewing area and light. In short, a picture window is designed to provide an unimpeded, open view of the outside – as if framing a picture – and to provide the most natural light into a room. Our picture windows do come in a variety of styles, and so the windows advantages will depend on the style you choose as well as the glass and other choices you make.
