Why homeowners choose awning windows
- Ventilation during rain, since the sash acts like a small roof
- Privacy in bathrooms when placed high on the wall
- Airflow above a picture window without breaking up the view
- A tight compression seal similar to a casement
Common placements
We often stack an awning window below or above a large fixed unit to get a big view plus fresh air. They also work well as a row of high windows in kitchens, laundry rooms and stair landings.
Options
- Vinyl, fiberglass and wood-clad frames
- Frosted or obscure glass for bathrooms
- Low-E and laminated impact glass
- Retractable or standard screens
Common questions
Can awning windows be used for egress?
Most awning windows are too short to meet egress size requirements. For bedrooms, a casement or double-hung is usually the better choice.
How much do awning windows cost?
Typically $700 to $1,600 installed depending on size, material and glass.
