Awning windows feature hinged top panels which pivot open like an awning to provide ample ventilation in hard-to-reach places such as above a sink or when climbing a ladder is unsafe. Awnings windows make an excellent solution for difficult-to-access spots like above sinks or in rooms where access may be dangerous.
Like casement windows, awnings make an excellent addition to basements as they don’t interfere with traffic patterns or interfere with furniture placement when opened. Furthermore, they’re much simpler and quicker to clean on the interior side.
Simple Hardware
Awning windows feature hinges at the top and swing open from below, making them an excellent design solution for tight spaces where width exceeds height. Awnings can also be combined with casement windows to create striking combinations that add architectural beauty to your home.
These windows are specifically designed to preserve your view while providing maximum airflow and light. They make for great windows in areas like basements where space is limited but airflow and privacy must co-exist, or hard-to-reach places that make installing standard windows impossible.
Our awning windows come in both push out and crank opening models. Push out awnings can be easily opened by pulling on their handles and pushing outward, while crank open awnings can be closed by turning an easy-to-reach handle; both versions of this window can then be secured shut with a simple lock.
Awning windows are one of the easiest windows to operate, maintain, and secure. Their hinged top enables them to remain open during rainstorms while providing better weather protection than other window types. Awnings also serve to effectively ventilate bathrooms, kitchens, or any room with lower ceilings by creating air circulation between areas with different ceiling heights.
Like our replacement windows, our awnings come equipped with durable Fibrex frames made of fiberglass that won’t rot, warp, or fade with age. Their high performance frames combined with Low-E4 SmartSun glass help lower energy costs and earn them an ENERGY STAR rating to help save on costs over time.

Great Ventilation
Awning windows open from the top with just the twist of a lever, giving you access to fresh air even during less-than-ideal conditions outside. They’re an ideal way to bring in natural light while still maintaining privacy – an awning window might provide perfect illumination in rooms that tend to become warm or stagnant, such as upstairs bedrooms or home offices. Awnings also make great feature additions in spots overlooking your backyard or lake!
Awning windows can be left open during rainy weather, making them the perfect solution for environments like bathrooms and kitchens where high humidity and moisture levels may damage traditional windows. Their upward hinge design allows water to drop through freely instead of collecting on their sashes – keeping your home dry!
These windows are an ideal solution for tight spots where ventilation is required but space must be preserved on walls. They work particularly well above sinks, cabinets and tall fixtures in bathrooms or stairwells and work great when combined with other window styles such as picture windows to create an appealing yet practical aesthetic.
One feature that sets awning windows apart from other window options is their ease of operation and maintenance. By not featuring as much exposed hardware, awning windows are less likely to rust or break over time and feature double locking mechanisms to maintain energy-efficiency levels.
No matter which material you select – wood, steel or fiberglass – these windows are extremely resilient and built to withstand years of use. Additionally, their resistance to fading and discoloration makes them an investment worth making for years. Furthermore, Andersen stands behind each lifetime transferable warranty with unparalleled customer service that stands behind every purchase made through them.

Easy to Operate
An awning window’s hinged sash swings open from the top, allowing airflow into your home even during heavy rainfall. These windows are great for areas that need ventilation but want to limit rain or snow entering into their space, such as kitchens, bathrooms or home offices – plus they look beautiful next to picture windows for creating an appealing yet practical aesthetic!
Awning windows are designed to open easily, featuring locking hardware at their bases. They’re often combined with other window styles but can also be mounted higher onto walls for airflow in hard-to-reach areas of your home. Awnings offer aesthetic versatility too: push out or crank open designs can be chosen; one allows single hand operation while narrow profiles of crank open versions offer stunning views.
Both options offer a strong construction that will withstand years of use with little maintenance required. They’re also highly energy efficient, featuring double and triple pane glass rated by the ENERGY STAR program as well as vinyl frames and sashes featuring insulation chambers to minimize heat transfer, all at an extremely affordable U-Value that ensures savings on heating and cooling bills each month.
Casement windows feature side hinges that can cause them to warp over time, whereas awning windows utilize a central crank and locking hardware which makes them far more durable. They also make an ideal addition for tight spaces where swinging windows may not fit as you can open from either the inside or outside your home without interfering with traffic patterns or furniture placement.
Awning windows come in many styles and finishes to match any decor in your home, whether they’re being used alone or combined with fixed lites for optimal efficiency. Grouping them together improves ventilation while being easy to install on any type of wall – not to mention adding value over time! Awning windows add value to any property for many years due to their durability and low maintenance needs – both qualities which will add long-term value.
Easy to Maintain
Awning windows can provide excellent ventilation in any home by being hinged at the top and opening outward, creating great airflow in any space. They can even remain open during light rainstorms – making awninging windows an excellent choice in areas that prioritize airflow. They can be combined with other window styles for unique aesthetics or used alone to add style.
No matter if it’s for fresh air or spring cleaning, your new awning windows must be easy to use. Our Aspekt 1800 windows boast rugged hardware and an intelligent design which make them up to three times easier than traditional hung windows and up to 20% quieter thanks to superior seal technology and innovative hardware systems.
Due to their small size and outward swing, awning windows make an excellent addition for tight spaces such as above cabinets or sinks. When combined with casement windows for added character and style or used alone they create an eye-catching design element in any home.
Doors with louvers can also provide ventilation in rooms where there’s not enough room to install a full-size door, as you can open your windows without compromising privacy or blocking natural light flow. Furthermore, their louvers allow you to redirect sunlight that shines onto TV screens or into eyes when reading books or newspapers.
Awning windows can add beauty and function to your home, but choosing the appropriate installer can be tricky. A poorly done job could result in water or drafts entering your home through leaky awning windows; additionally it could void your warranty – for these reasons it’s best to hire professional installation services like Cameron Roofing to make sure the job gets done right so that you can enjoy them for many years ahead.
