Awning Windows

Awning windows are a type of casement window. Instead of having a latch on the side, their sash is at the top of the window. With the ability to be opened up to 45 degrees, their versatility lends many options:

• Use Rain or Shine—because they open at the top, you can open your windows when it rains and not worry about water seeping into your house. This is great for homes that frequently experience inclement weather—such as the frequent summer rainstorms known to the St. Louis area—when homeowners still want to let fresh air in every now and then.
• Easy to Open—Awning windows are often equipped with a crank, making them very easy to open.
• Better Ventilation—Use awning windows in areas that frequently need ventilation like your bathroom or kitchen—and since they can be mounted high they allow you to maintain your privacy. You’ll get improved air quality—not to mention loads of natural light!
• Suits All Decors—Whether you have a traditional home or a more modern style, you can use awning windows almost anywhere. Update a classic look by pairing shutters with awning windows—or use awning windows as a stylish twist on your contemporary residence.
