Slider Windows
Sliding windows open horizontally by moving one sash horizontally along another sash, increasing viewing area and making it simple to let nature in. They look beautiful while offering easy maintenance without ever needing to climb onto a ladder – with their sashes lifting into a pocket that slides outward, they allow cleaning from both inside and outside without the need to clean screens or tracks first.

Casement Windows
No matter if you want to replace outdated double-hung windows or modernize your home with updated window replacements, casement windows offer plenty of choices for modernizing any style home. Our favorites are casement windows – hinged like doors but opened outward using an easily controlled mechanical crank – as they look stunning both contemporary homes and classic Colonial, Georgian, or country styles.
Casement windows differ from single and double hung windows by providing maximum ventilation by opening all window openings simultaneously, letting air in without restricting air flow or keeping out drafts and moisture. They’re an energy saver too: casements help keep out drafts better and can better keep out drafts that cause drafts when using less energy to operate windows.
Casement windows boast several additional benefits that make them stand out, including less muntin (the strips of wood, vinyl or metal that divide panes of glass on other types of windows) and uninterrupted views outside. Furthermore, casements are easier to shut and lock securely in an emergency situation than other window styles are.
Renewal by Andersen windows are designed with precision engineering so you can rest assured they will fit seamlessly, deliver outstanding performance, and match any architectural style – saving energy costs while remaining stylish for years. Our selection includes casement and double-hung windows designed by Renewal by Andersen that ensure complete satisfaction – both casements and double-hungs will fit seamlessly and look beautiful!
Single Hung Windows
Single-hung windows are among the most widely used sash windows, found both in new home construction projects and existing homes across the country. Easy to maintain and with an attractive traditional aesthetic, single-hung windows also tend to be less costly than their double-hung counterparts.
Though single-hung windows may not provide as much ventilation for your home as double-hung ones, they still offer great ventilation opportunities. When lowered they allow hot air to leave while cool air enters through the lower window panel or sash. Unfortunately they cannot open as wide since their top sash remains fixed.
Single-hung windows come in standard sizes. While their sizes can reach four feet wide by six feet high, these tend to be narrower. Ideal for rooms where natural light needs to enter but ventilation requirements don’t exist, single-hung windows offer natural ventilation in smaller amounts than their sliding counterparts.
Single-hung windows come in various styles and finishes such as vinyl, fiberglass, and wood – the most popular being vinyl and fiberglass – making them the go-to choice for residential properties as they combine energy efficiency with classic looks. Furthermore, these highly customizable units can feature muntins, trims and colors of your choosing to meet any aesthetic demands or preference.
Are you looking to increase the value and efficiency of your home in New York? Install new kitchen windows. There are various window styles to choose from, such as bay and bow windows for dramatic effects or casement windows that open like doors with crank handles; double-hung windows offer greater flexibility by opening from both top or bottom, making this upgrade smart and affordable for homeowners looking to improve their homes.
Double Hung Windows
Double hung windows are among the most sought-after window styles for homeowners, offering convenience and energy efficiency in one package. Their operable sashes move up and down for ventilation of a room or entire home. Furthermore, double hungs come equipped with muntins, trim, grids, colors and muntins that you can choose to complement your style – they’re even easier to clean than sliding windows due to sashes lifting out and tilting inward for greater access to interior components.
These windows offer added protection from intruders by being built with an interlocking system that closes tightly when opened, making it more difficult for intruders to pry them apart. Furthermore, unlike single hung windows, their bottom sash moves up slightly when open preventing prying attempts by prying fingers from the top sash when opened compared to its single-hung counterparts.
As with other OKNA windows, double hungs can be tailored to meet your exact specifications. Choose from an assortment of colors, grid designs and interior simulated wood finishes for the perfect aesthetic, or upgrade further by including Low E glass or tempered glass for energy savings.
Double hung windows come equipped with either a welded or screwed frame for increased strength and durability, as well as in a range of finishes ranging from white to wood-grain laminates. Furthermore, they can be fitted with various hardware and locks to further increase security – including cam-style and sash limit locks that make it harder to break in.
Cost of double hung windows depends on their size, type, features and add-ons. Fixed windows tend to be the least costly, while double hung and casement are within their price ranges; while shaped windows incur additional labor and material expenses.
Vertical Sliding Windows
Vertical sliding windows are an excellent way for homeowners to add more ventilation to their home, as this type of window features operable sashes which slide up and down. This design creates more airflow while providing stunning panoramic views outside – it’s ideal for areas like kitchens and bedrooms where hard to reach windows may be difficult to access; additionally they come with customization options such as custom colors, interior wood finishes and stain options that add further convenience for cleaning purposes.
Sliding windows are a popular choice among homeowners looking to upgrade their homes, as they provide long-term energy efficiency and are cost-effective options. Since there are various styles and sizes of sliding windows available, it is important to carefully consider your home when making this choice.
Hung windows operate similarly to sliding ones in that they open and close vertically along their frame of window jambs. Hung windows come in two styles — single hung and double hung — where single hung models allow one pane/sash to slide open while double hung varieties may be tilted inward for cleaning purposes.
Both hung and sliding windows are easy to keep clean, providing ample ventilation, but both types may collect dust over time. To maintain optimal condition for both types of windows, regular washing with mild soap-and-water mixture is essential.
Installing windows with insect screens is an effective way of protecting against pests in the home, however it must be remembered when installing these windows that the insect screens must be taken down and maintained regularly for cleaning and maintenance purposes.
