Window Installation

Awning windows have hinges at the top and swing open from the bottom. Typically, these windows don’t open more than a few inches wide.

Awning windows are easy to open and close using a crank or lever mechanism. Because they don't open very far, installing awning windows can enhance your home's energy efficiency and prevent warm or cool air from escaping, depending on the season.

This style of window is perfect for areas that get frequent rain because they allow fresh air in your home while preventing rain from getting in. As the name suggests, the window serves as an awning, guiding the rainwater away from your home to keep your window sill dry.

Bay windows generally feature a large picture window in the center with two narrower windows on either side. Bay windows are similar to bow windows but have three distinct panels instead of the typical four to five panels bow windows have.

The side windows of a bay window are placed at an angle relative to the center window, creating an extension off the side of the house. Inside, this is a great place to add a bench seat or built-in storage. Bay windows can even add value to your home, making them a good window replacement choice.

In some cases, all three of the window panels are stationary, while in other cases one or more of the windows can open, using a single-hung, double-hung or other opening format.

Bow windows are a great way to transform the look of a room and create extra space with your window replacement. They’re similar to the popular bay window style, but with several key distinctions.

Bow windows typically have four to five main window panels, while bay windows only have three. Bow window panels are all similar in width and are arranged into a curved shape, compared to a bay window's large center window and smaller flanking windows.

You can customize the materials and finish of bow window frames to go with any style home.

Casement windows are hinged on one side and open from the other side. These windows are great for allowing fresh air into your home. Unlike single-hung or double-hung windows, you can open the entire window, not just part of it, maximizing the amount of fresh air that can get inside. This can help to reduce your energy costs by allowing natural breeze to cool your home.

While casement windows typically open from the side, there are some designs that swing open vertically. In this case, you'll need casement stays to hold the window open; otherwise, it will fall closed. You can also use stays with side-opening casement windows to prevent your windows from swinging and potentially breaking in high winds.

Casement windows are available with and without screens, but we recommend screens to prevent bugs from getting inside your house.

When you’re ready for window replacement, double-hung windows are easy to incorporate — you won't need to make significant modifications to your existing window frames.

The double-hung window style is made of two main panels that can both open to allow in fresh air. You have the option of sliding both panels up to the top, leaving the bottom open, or sliding both panels to the bottom to open the top. You can also overlap the panels in the middle, leaving open portions at both the top and bottom of the window frame.

A key benefit of double-hung windows is that the panels angle inward slightly for easy cleaning.

Picture windows are perfect if you’re looking to invite more natural light into your home or showcase a beautiful view. These windows are typically very large and designed not to open.

Picture windows can consist of a single, large pane of glass, or one main panel divided into several smaller panes. In both cases, a picture window can increase your home's energy efficiency in the winter by allowing sunlight to warm the room rather than relying completely on your furnace.

 

Many people choose to install picture windows alongside their patio doors. This opens up the view to your patio, creating the feel of an indoor-outdoor living space.

Unlike standard windows, shaped windows come in a variety of shapes other than the usual square or rectangle. Shaped windows can add visual interest that boosts curb appeal and can even increase your property value.

There’s a wide range of window shapes to choose from, including ovals, arches, geometric shapes and more. The right choice for your home comes down to the configuration of the room and your personal taste and preferences.

To help boost the energy efficiency of your shaped windows, you have the option of adding low-e film. This thin coating blocks UV rays from entering your home, which can help to keep the interior cooler so that you don't have to use your air conditioning as much on hot days.

Single-hung windows are the most common style found in homes today, including both older and newly constructed homes. If your house was built in the last 20 years, it probably already has single-hung windows.

In this type of window, the frame holds two glass panes, one that is stationary and one that slides to open. You can configure single-hung windows either vertically, to open the bottom portion of the window, or horizontally, to open from the side.

Sliding windows are similar to single-hung and double-hung windows. The key difference is that sliding windows only open horizontally. Sliding windows open easily by releasing a lever or latch that allows you to slide the window open.

This type of window is common in modern homes and tends to be a relatively affordable window replacement choice thanks to its simplicity.

Although sliding windows are simple, they don't have to be boring. You can add shutters to enhance the look of your home or paint the frame color for more customization.
