Classic Window Styles

These time-tested designs work in nearly every room and complement any architectural style. Single-hung, double-hung, and casement windows offer reliable performance, easy operation, and the flexibility to match both traditional neighborhoods and modern builds

Single Hung Windows

Single-hung windows lift open from the bottom while the top stays fixed.

Double-Hung Windows

May be opened from the bottom or top for fresh air and even tilt in for easy cleaning from inside your home

Casement Windows

These side-hinged windows crank outward like opening a door, giving you 100% opening space for airflow and completely unblocked views.

Slider Windows

Slider windows easily glide open horizontally from the left or right and deliver a wide open view and ample fresh air.

Specialty Window Styles

Make a statement with windows that add dimension, light, and character to your home. Bay windows create cozy reading nooks, garden windows turn your kitchen into a mini greenhouse, and awning windows keep fresh air flowing even during afternoon thunderstorms.

Awning Windows

Awning windows hinge at the top and open outward from the bottom, creating a 45-degree angle that sheds rainwater while letting fresh air flow into your home during spring thunderstorms.

Bay or Bow Windows

Add 2-3 feet of interior space. These angled window combinations extend outward from your home's exterior wall, creating extra square footage inside while flooding rooms with light from three directions. Bay windows use three flat panels, while bow windows curve gently with four or five panels.

Garden Windows

Garden windows project 12-18 inches outward and include two glass shelves for herb gardens, succulents, or decorative pottery. Side vents open to prevent condensation while your plants thrive in the extra sunlight.

Geometric Windows

Geometric windows come in half-circles, diamonds, hexagons, triangles, and custom shapes that match your home's architectural style. A round window in a gable end or an arched window above your front door creates instant curb appeal.

Picture Windows

Picture windows are large, fixed glass panels designed to frame mountain vistas, lake views, or wooded backyards. These non-opening windows flood rooms with natural light while maintaining tight energy seals.
