Double-Hung

A time-honored classic, double-hung windows are the most common replacement window style in North America. They can be opened and closed from both the top and bottom for functional versatility and convenient ventilation, making them a great option for just about any room in a home.

Sliding

This ingenious design combines the smooth operability of a sliding glass door with the contemporary aesthetic of smooth, clean lines for a timeless style that offers unobstructed views of the outdoors.

Casement

Casement windows remain a consistently popular window option thanks to their traditional beauty and unique crank-style operation. This window style can also be combined with other types of windows in a configuration for complete customization freedom.

Awning

If you’re searching for a window option to go in an area of your home that could use some extra ventilation but that doesn’t afford a lot of space (such as above a kitchen sink or in a bathroom), this type of window is the perfect solution. It opens outward from the bottom, creating a protective awning that lets air in while rain stays out.

Bay, Bow, & Box

These types of windows add a charming focal point to any room, and it’s all thanks to their unique structures that consist of multiple windows that jut outward from the home. This creates visual interest and depth, not to mention functional living space.

Garden

Garden windows are another type that extend outward from the home, creating a box-like structure that provides the opportunity to fill the space with plants, pictures, or other decorative elements.
