Casement
Casement windows are hinged on one side, similar to a door, and open outwards. Casements offer maximum ventilation and viewable daylight with its single sash. Casements are a great option when egress is needed, but space is limited. Because casements open outwards, space for exterior walkways or other obstructions need to be considered.
Awning
Awning windows are hinged at the top while the bottom opens outward. Awnings are great options for areas that may be hard to reach, but ventilation is desired. Awnings are not capable of meeting egress requirements.
Picture
Picture windows are fixed windows providing unobstructed views and are commonly paired with operable windows to provide large expansions of daylight.
Radius
Radius windows include arched or round tops including quarter, half, or full rounds. Radius windows can be used by themselves or be mulled to operable windows. Radius windows can have a great impact on overall home design and feel.
