Frequently Asked Questions
What is a awning window?
An awning window is a type of window that is hinged at the top and opens outward from the bottom, forming an awning-like effect. This design allows for ventilation even during light rain, as the open window creates a downward slant that helps keep rainwater out while still allowing air to flow into the room.
What are the key features / benefits of awning windows?
Top-Hinged Design:
- Awning windows are hinged at the top of the frame and open outward from the bottom. This unique design creates a sloping effect that provides protection from rain.
Â
Crank or Lever Operation:
- Most awning windows are operated using a crank handle or a lever. This mechanism makes it easy to open and close the window, even when it is installed in higher or hard-to-reach places.
Â
Weather Protection:
- When opened, the sash of an awning window acts as a shield, diverting rainwater away from the opening. This makes awning windows ideal for use during inclement weather
Â
Unobstructed Views:
- Similar to casement windows, awning windows do not have muntins (the strips that divide the panes of glass) or bars across the glass, allowing for clear, unobstructed views.
What materials do we offer awning windows in?
We offer awning windows in wood clad vinyl and all vinyl.
How much do awning windows cost?
The cost of awning windows can vary based on several factors, such as:
- Size: Larger or custom-sized windows typically cost more than standard sizes.

- Glass Options: Energy-efficient glass, triple-pane glass, or specialty coatings can increase costs.

Â
On average, awning windows typically range from $400 to $1,000 per window, including basic installation. For premium materials, larger sizes, or custom features, prices may exceed $1,200 per window.
