The Main Styles

Double-Hung

Both sashes open and tilt in for easy cleaning — the most popular, versatile choice.

Single-Hung

The bottom sash opens; a classic look at a friendly price.

Casement

Cranks open outward for maximum airflow and a tight seal.

Sliding

Glides side to side — great for wide openings and easy operation.

Picture

Fixed glass that maximizes view and light; very energy-efficient.

Bay & Bow

Project outward to add space, light and an architectural focal point.

Matching Style to Room

Double-hung suits almost any room and is easy to clean. Casements are great over kitchen sinks and where you want maximum breeze. Sliders fit wide, modern openings. Picture and bay windows make a statement in living rooms.

Mix for the Best Result

Most homes use a mix — double-hung throughout, a casement or two for ventilation, a picture or bay window as a focal point. We’ll help you plan it. See our windows page.
