The ordinary vinyl windows on the market are often designed and built for low cost, not for value. They often have mechanically fastened sashes, inexpensive and less reliable block-and-tackle or spiral balance systems, and off-the-shelf hardware that doesn't match the color of the vinyl or other hardware. Additional costs are reduced by using clear glass, rather than more thermally efficient Low "E" glass, and by using old-fashioned aluminum spacers between the glass, rather than new low-conductance technology.

Ordinary clad wood windows are an attempt by wood window manufacturers to provide the same benefits as the best vinyl windows. But the inside wood surfaces can warp, and demand painting, staining, and on-going maintenance. And in custom sizes to fit your window openings, clad wood windows can be considerably more expensive than vinyl.

Bow and Bay Windows - From the inside and outside, Bay and Bow window units enhance the appearance of any room. These windows can be made using double hung or casement flankers with picture windows or fixed lite casement center units. Bay windows are configured with three separate windows. The center window is twice as wide as each flanker, and units are available with 30" or 45" angles. Bow windows are constructed with 15" angles. They are available in three, four or five equal lite configurations. Learn more about our Bow and Bay Windows

Double Hung Windows - Both sashes on double hung windows operate and tilt in. Recommended for second or higher stories where cleaning from the outside would otherwise require a ladder or difficult maneuvering. An economical solution to help offset the incremental cost of double hung windows is to use them only on upper levels, while installing single hung windows on the ground floor. Just make sure that the window series match visually. Read more on Double Hung Windows.

Casement Windows - Casement windows have crank-out sashes that provide great ventilation and unobstructed vertical viewing. A ninety degree opening span allows easy access for cleaning the outside of the glass panel. These make perfect alternatives for installing over a kitchen sink to allow easy opening. Awning windows offer the same convenience and crank out from the bottom. Read more on Casement Windows.
